"'The Americans? We’re going to smash them. That’s what we came here for.'" Yeah, that's what the French said with regard to the 400 meter relay. Why the hate, Frenchies? You seem very determined to hate us while we're trying as hard as we can to forget you exist.
As it turns out, Frenchies lost. Or surrendered. It's so hard to tell. Anyhoo, check out the dramatic comeback video by clicking

After spending the last 5 days with more French people than I ever had any desire to encounter, I now officially share your hatred for the French! I am pretty sure they must be running ads in France right now telling people to visit the southern Utah parks. I am not a fan. There were many instances that we were the only ones that spoke english in the area! Watching the Americans kill the French in this race somehow had an added measure of satisfaction!
