Michael Phelps - Gold, Marine Boy - Silver, and More Netizen Silliness

Phelps won his 3rd gold medal out of 3 attempt yesterday in the men's 200m freestyle event. Didja know that if he wins all 8 gold, Speedo will give him a $1 million bonus? Sweet!

Marine Boy Park Tae Hwan also did well in the event, finishing in 2nd for the silver medal. The outcome was never really in doubt as Phelps was the easy favorite but getting the silver has to be considered a success for the 19 year old Korean. Congrats! Next up for Park is the 1500m freestyle.

And on the side....Olympic gold medalists are allowed to play a song of their choice in the stadium after they win their meet and Park chose the song "Girl's Generation (Sonyeoshidae)" by the group of the same name (Sonyeoshidae). Stupid netizens are going apeshit again because Park is very good friends with Sun Ye from the group Wonder Girls who are kind of rivals of the girl group Sonyeoshidae. Netizens are saying stuff like he's betraying his friend and stuff like that. So silly.

Netizens were also all over the men's soccer team after losing to Italy 3-0. Netizens were posting comments like "just come back to Korea" and "don't waste any more of our country's money by staying in China". So frickin' harsh. These Korean netizens really pist me off sometimes. Get a life! (I know...ironic coming from a blogger, right?)
