(majestic band melody)
- My favorite moment has gotta be Kerri Strug
landing that vault with a broken foot.
- I just remember being a kid and watching
the Dream Team and seeing Larry Bird play
with Magic and Jordan, just thinking if I got good
at basketball, I could have some black friends, maybe.
- My favorite athlete is Michael Phelps,
'cause he proves you could smoke weed
and still be successful.
- My favorite Olympic story of all time
is Eric the Eel.
Eric the Eel was...

is gonna have to get hold of the lane rope
in a minute.
- [Voiceover] Ajen, I'm not sure he's gonna make it, is he?
- [Voiceover] Yeah, he is, you see this is the Olympics.
He's got 17,000 people shouting for him.
- [Voiceover] Eric Moussambani of Equatorial Guinea,
wins heat one of the Men's 100 Meters Freestyle.
Well, I thought I'd seen everything
in the Olympic swimming pool.

- Bitch, I'm tired.
