Im tired of hearing about Phelps. I get it, he's a great swimmer.

No can I please see other events like trampoline or archery? Im fed up with seeing swimming and beach volleyball.

Hard to tell if he was taking the joke too far or actually serious in saying he could beat Phelps.
Well he fooled Kornheiser and Wilbon if he was joking. I think that queer was serious though.

In all seriousness I agree with you Craig. I dont think they should stop pushing the most popular sports but they definitely need to share the time slots a little more....
