2012 Olympics: Swimming

does anyone else feel like these olympics - mens swimming mostly - is a bit "empty"? I just don't feel the excitement like i did in 2008. there is no visible celebrating, visible teammies cheering, teammies hugging, etc. it just seems like a big let down. no - i'm not ripping on our guys because i know i can't do better, i'm just saying it doesn't seem as energetic as the last one. aside from lochte and most likely greevers tonight getting golds, it seems like we are the bronze medal team to beat (wish i could win one). Too bad more people can't get as excited about women's swimming as they do about men's. Just look about how much of this thread has been about the men as compared to the women... Personally, I am totally stoked about Dana Vollmer and Missy Franklin!! (and yes, Greevers and Lochte too! Woo hoo!) :bliss::cheerleader::bow:
