Sure, many stars were at the games, as always. Their stories are also important, but Eric is someone who can inspire us all as human beings. I'll never run the fastest, jump the highest, or throw the farthest. But I can go out and try my damnedest, just like he did. And sometimes, just like he did, I'll succeed.

I don't think he was part of these Olympics, was he? I barely remember him from Sydney - but I didn't find Sydney that memorable to begin with.
