In honor of my favorite Olympian pulling out the first gold medal for Team USA..
CONGRATULATIONS RYAN LOCHTE! #JEAH

In my opinion, there is nothing better than Olympic Swimming and it is very fitting that our first gold goes to a guy who has worked himself to the bone for the past four years to become one of our country’s top competitors. I mean, the guy flips tires and pushes cars for his dry-land workouts – that alone deserves some sort of medal. It also doesn’t hurt that he is extremely good looking.

Congratulations on blowing everyone out of the water in the 400 Individual Medley, Ryan. You deserve it!
PS – that American flag grill, you are beyond awesome.

Oh and Ryan, if you ever want to swap out that 800-pound tire for something lighter to flip, call me.
