The Official 2012 Olympics (according to me)

You all are watching the Olympics.  If you aren't please escort yourself to Canada.  We all have our favorites, for different reasons, here are mine.  May the odds be ever in your favor! (sorry, I couldn't help it)

Gabby Douglas is CLEARLY the darling of these Olympic Games.  She is the cutest thing I've ever seen!  These girls made me excited about gymnastics for the first time since 96' Dominique Dawes and Kerri Strug.  The deal with her hair?  No deal.  I dont understand. Seriously. What is the big deal?
 Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings are so much fun to watch! Not as much fun for me as it is for my husband (he continues to tell me, thanks hun) but still, those abs are fierce!  That braid?  eh.
 McKayla Maroney's bitch face is my absolute favorite part of this years games.  Look. At. That. Face. PURE GENIUS! I worship you, McKayla.  May I one day don that face in a CORE pic.
 I know you can't talk about this years Olympics without mentioning Phelps.  I think he's a douche.  Good job on the medals though.  Also, I think you're dumb when you speak. 
 Missy Franklin is 17.  I can not, not cry when I watch her win these medals.  She is so surprised genuinely (a la TSwift circa her first round of awards shows.  Now it's annoying.  Swift not Franklin. Oh God.)  I cried watching her parents, I cried watching her coach, I cried watching her teammates, I cried watching freaking Kate Middleton cheering her on.  You go Glen CoCo.
 Ryan. Lochte. Need I say more? 
(I think he's actually missing some brain cells.  He can't form complete sentences.  He clearly is meant to be without a shirt. Praise Allah)
 Ryan Lochte's Mom.  Oh that sweet, sweet lady who says he only has time for one night stands.  Where does the line start?

Aly Raisman's parents are more interesting to watch than she is!  Don't get me wrong, that girl is fierce, but I couldn't take my eyes off her mom and dad just jolting all around. Brilliance.








The Bronze goes to Ryan Lochte for the obvious.
Silver goes to the Raisman's
Gold is obviously McKayla's. At least you got one from me, boo!
