I think I had more than one crush going on. <BR/><BR/>I loved that little African swimmer as well.

I fondly remember those olympic moments too. <BR/><BR/>My other favorites include:<BR/>From 1984, Men's and Women's volleyball teams from the 84 games (where I was first introduced to Karch Kiraly and Lori Endicott), <BR/>Joan Benoit running away with the women's marathon and Edwin Moses continuing his winning streak in the 400m hurdles. <BR/><BR/>In 1988, the Men's Volleyball team winning gold in 88 (nothing like watching Karch Kiraly's dad waving the American flag from the stands). Swimmer and multi-medal winner Janet Evans. FloJo - Florence Griffith Joyner electrifies the track and field world with speed, grace and beauty (not too mention those crazy long fingernails). <BR/><BR/>And who could forget the original Dream Team in 92 - MJ, Larry Bird, Magic, Stockton, Malone, Barkley, Pippen, Robinson.<BR/><BR/>I HEART the Olympics!c.hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137476831686305244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14145785.post-57454718042785908572008-08-08T22:59:00.000-07:002008-08-08T22:59:00.000-07:00the guy from the small African country who picked ...the guy from the small African country who picked up swimming 9 months before the Sydney games.
