	Blahblah posted October 18 at 6:02am. 4 golds eh? ha. did he even final in his individual events? but at least he swam his own race...
	Yaarrghh posted August 8 at 10:46am. I feel like he has trouble speaking english...
	GWG's Mom posted August 8 at 10:42am. SQUAT ON THAT BAABAYY!
	Ghj posted August 5 at 8:32am. this dude makes me yawn
	Virginia Beach posted August 3 at 3:01pm. G-DUB IS THE TRUTH 4 GOLDS, NOTHING LESS
	A posted July 31 at 5:03pm. i hope he does!!! he is the nicest professional athlete i've ever met...he deserves it
	Watch Out! posted July 31 at 2:20am. Bousquet to break WR and win 100 fly. Don't say I didn't warn you!
	A posted July 30 at 11:56pm. it definitely is interesting watching the differences between interviews of all the great sprinters...there are the outspoken stars like gary hall who we all love, the class acts like fred bousquet, ryk neethling (even though he is more butterfly) ben wildman-tobriner, popov, and cesar, and then there are the other guys like gwg...but I'd prolly say my favorite sprinter interview on here so far is filipo magnini
	AimeeWilmott posted July 30 at 3:23am. Anonymous Coward-I know South Africa won in 2004 but i was talking about 2008 not 2004!
	Anonymous Coward posted July 29 at 6:34pm. aimeewilmott: If you dont recall, the 400 free relay in 2004 had south africa win the gold the netherlands take silver and the u.s. take bronze.
	Kensi posted July 29 at 3:44pm. i wish he would put some feeling into it. He sounds so indifferent!
	AimeeWilmott posted July 29 at 1:49pm. I posted that france will win. I have no balls im a girl and i honestly believe france will win. Im British too (we definately WONT win!) and the truth is i would like to see another country other than the US and AUS win a relay and France have the best shot.
	Crystalball posted July 29 at 11:10am. If this guy races like he dd at trials no one will beat him. Its all about getting your hand on the wall first when it matters in finals, and thats what Garret does. He's confident and knows what he needs to do in preparation to win.
	Herro posted July 29 at 10:13am. gwg will crush those french panzies.
	Yamz615 posted July 29 at 9:18am. 3 gold lezak will beat him in the 100
	Texass posted July 29 at 6:52am. 4 gold!
	No USA! posted July 29 at 2:09am. They will win gold in the 4x100 just like they did in Sydney and Athens... Oh hang on.....my bad.
	Oh No posted July 29 at 2:05am. Only used his legs the last 10m?........ Then he will absolutely be 45.2 at the games when he decides to use his legs the other 90m. Somebody tell him he's in the big leagues now!
	Please! posted July 29 at 1:59am. If he is "the face" then somebody slap it!
	? posted July 29 at 1:02am. dominated Ncaa Competition the last 4 years?breaking every record in books? what are you talking about? Are you getting him mixed up with cesar? No doubt Garrett has made some improvements and has become a great swimmer, but he is no god... obviously the true test is the olympics...I personally dont think he will do that well there, but I didnt think he was going to do well at the trials, so I guess I'll just wait and see
	Sarge posted July 28 at 11:05pm. he can't help it ...he is a sip better that than a frog though...kick ass GwG
	GWG Father posted July 28 at 10:01pm. 4 Gold!!!!
	GWG Mother posted July 28 at 9:54pm. I think garret is the king of sprinting. he has dominated ncaa competition over the last 4 years, breaking every record on the books and now is the face of USA sprinting. He is so cool under pressure and when he gets into the ready room with all the fastest sprinters in the world he will laugh and say "I am the greatest!" Nobody can touch him.....
	Isaac Cole posted July 28 at 8:24pm. i dont think eamon will do well at all at the olympics. he has not only been injured as of late, but i think that he isnt as strong as these other guys and he wont go near his WR. At the trials he had over a body length lead on the field and had tons of clean water, thats not gonna happen at the olympics and I think he possibly wont even medal.
	Anonymous Coward posted July 28 at 8:08pm. 4 golds?? easy guys. he wont even medal individually, the only golds he will get will be the relays. Cielo will destroy him!!!
	No France posted July 28 at 7:29pm. No way france can beat us, they may have a 47.5 but we got lezak who was .08 slower, then all they got is 3 guys at 48.low and we got phelps and garrett weber-gale under 48 so usa has got it
	No Pressure posted July 28 at 6:32pm. USA has never had a more capable guy to carry the entire country on his back, gwg is awesome! I mean just look at him, doesn't he just look like a winner!
	Fast Az Schitt posted July 28 at 6:27pm. he's good. very good. i just want to roll him up in a croissant and eat him up. oh wait... you say he's NOT french? nvm
	Go Garret posted July 28 at 6:22pm. he will win gold in 4 races. i will be the first to call it! gold gold gold gold, he is such an awesome sprinter. the world has no idea how good this guy is. i mean he is from texas, he will dominate the whole world! 50, 100 and both relays. garret is the greatest american sprinter ever!
	Snoopy posted July 28 at 5:48pm. from what i've heard with guys that swam with him in schroeder, gwg is pretty arrogant, but a little confidence never hurt anyone it probably actually makes them win races since they have zero self doubt
	Scott A. posted July 28 at 5:05pm. Don't you love how both of the people pimpin for france on this forum posted under the names "G" and "anonymous coward".....show some balls.....and go usa
	Ahelee posted July 28 at 4:53pm. Team USA will go FASTER! Don't forget, Jason Lezak has already gone 47.5 flat start for the American Record...
	Mr. America posted July 28 at 4:37pm. there is no way that the french will beat the US men in the 4x100 free
	Acslater posted July 28 at 4:08pm. the french will all have to split 47.5 to beat the US and i dont see that happening...phelps will lead off in a 47.8 and the rest of the relay will split 47.5
	Sam posted July 28 at 3:53pm. Great Job at Trials GWG. Some good words for younger swimmers to listen to and take to heart. Stay focused and have fun!
	Urmother posted July 28 at 3:50pm. why dont u guys shutup and go back to france
	Anonymous Coward posted July 28 at 2:50pm. The french are going to kill the us
	Momo posted July 28 at 2:22pm. represent wisconsin!!!
	JenB123 posted July 28 at 1:56pm. I dont think he was being ignorant or y. I think his attitude is really great from what he was saying in the video. Its good to trust in your abilities and coaches. He looks like a man on a mission. He seems so focused. I mean he is aware of the competition around him, but not letting it affect how he will swim. I was at American long course in march where he had those breakout swims. He looked great there and i knew he would be a factor this summer. Good luck to him.
	Eric Herman posted July 28 at 1:54pm. Go Horns, 8+ men on the Olympic Team are from UT.
	G posted July 28 at 12:55pm. confidence? try being y as hell, france will probably show the u.s. up especially because gwg is being so ignorant
	LiquidKhaos posted July 28 at 12:19pm. Hook 'em Horns!
	Louis Yutiamco posted July 28 at 11:51am. screw the french Go USA!
