Passion: Who Said You Are To Old?


The buzz in the air was France was going to smash the Americans in the 4 x 100, man where they wrong. Jason Lezak a 32 year old swimmer showed the world that age is nothing but a number.


Jason Lezak gets tagged jumps into the pool as the last leg of the men's 4 x 100 free with the whole World saying the Americans should hold onto the silver medal, but Lezak had another plan. 25 meters left into his leg he puts it into 5th gear and showed the World that determination always dominates over age. This had to have been one of the greatest races we have ever seen. "I've been on the last two relays, where we came up short, and to be honest with you, I was tired of losing," Lezak said of bronze and silver relay medals for the U.S. team in the past two Olympics.


If you did not see the race last night do not wait any longer check out what we put together for the American Fan Club. We are sure that there will be a lot more outstanding performances by athletes in the next two weeks. However, for Lezak and the Olympics this will go down in history as one of the most exciting upsets in modern day sports.
