Hall was the 50m free wasnt he??
Hall isnt really that bad, they had him on Roy and HG last night, he seems like a decent sort of bloke. Its Phelps who said somethnig about winning 8 gold medals which is being arrogant.
Gary Hall Jr (guy who won the 50m men) is just a showman, see through the showmanship and hes a pretty decent bloke i think. Very over the top.

Don't get me wrong, i love GHJ. showman all the way through...i just thought his fine was funny as. He reminds me of a wrestler a little in his showmanship.

I dont think GHJ was arrogant at all, He was just upset with US swimming coaches for not considering him for Relay events. I was LMAO when I saw him in that boxing robe .
Michale Phelps is not arrogant. Arrogance was shown by those two american guys in the 100m Semifinals when they looked at each other as if saying 'You take the lead' to each other.

Phelps swam at the prelim stage. If he didn't swim there's a chance that his team may not have made the final which means he actually contributed to his team's gold medal despite not swimming in the final. It makes perfect sense.marc71178 said:
Also, he could have finished the Olympics with more fame and glory but he gave his team mate a shot. People are so quick to assume that all Americans are arrogant, albeit most of them are.
