Am I the only one who thinks the 24/7 MickyD plugs during NBC's coverage is hilarious? Like those extremely disciplined athletes would ever put that crap in their mouths. The only time something from McDonalds would ever enter Michael Phelps' body is if he was raped by the Hamburglar.
My cat is also a big fan of the Olympics. I have to mute the sound though, because Bob Costa's voice makes her vomit.

Ha! I had the same thought about McD's crap, Larry, but my thoughts weren't nearly as entertaining as that image...

I understand (and don't necessarily disagree) with the sentiment, but you're a bit off base here. Some world-class athletes (and Michael Phelps in particular) eat McDonald's and the like all the time. They have training regimens so demanding that they're mostly concerned with consuming enough calories for fuel, sometimes paying little attention to nutritional value. In fact, it's been widely reported that Phelps has subsisted this Olympics primarily on pizza, along with the usual pasta.
So, Wells, the answer to America's obesity epidemic is not to cut this stuff out of our diets. It's clearly to become Olympic-caliber athletes.

For breakfast, Phelps has:
* Three fried egg sandwiches with cheese lettuce tomatoes, fried onions and mayo
* One five-egg omelette
* A bowl of grits
* Three slices of French toast with powdered sugar
* Three chocolate chip pancakes
* Two cups of coffee
That's 4000 calories!
For lunch:
* 1,000 calories worth of energy drinks
* A pound of pasta with tomato sauce
* Two large ham, cheese and mayo sandwiches on white bread
For dinner:
* Six to eight slices of pizza
* Another pound of pasta with tomato sauce
* And wash it down with another 1,000 calories of energy drinks
All together …12,000 calories a day!

If that sample daily menu is actually true, then man, I bet that olympic legend just absolutely WRECKS the toilet.

Balthazar: I was just thinking of that SNL joke with John Belushi. http://www.livevideo.com/video/47A1B8DC63D44F5E9130278E2D07545D/little-chocolate-donuts.aspx
Anyway, Jeff, http://www.alleycat.org/NetCommunity/Page.aspx?pid=191&srcid=-2
