Missy Franklin. She just had a great attitude and seemed to embody the olympic spirit more than just about anyone

Didnt really have a favorite. I was happy for all the US athletes, well I guess all the athletes in general but being an American, or team comes first in my heart. I was especially happy for the US Womens Soccer Team and for the Womens Gymnastic Team. I also felt really bad for Lolo Jones too but Icould have done without some of her interviews afterward.
On a negative side, I could have done without the US Mens Basketball Team. Nothing really against them but isnt it time we go back to true amateurs. I understand why it was originally done when we had the Michael Jordan lead dream team to prove a point that if the USA uses pros like Russia and the other countries did, it would be no contest. But now lets go back to letting the college players play regardless of what the rest of the world does!!
Besides, when the US fields a team of professionals, if they win it will be SO WHAT!, they are supposed to win but if they lose it will be a National embarrassment!!

When all the countries remove their professionals then I would agree with you, but for now, every country represented in the Olympics had at least two professionals on their team, some even had a roster full of them. I'm a firm supporter of allowing the professionals to remain if other countries do...
