what about the fact that the pool is deeper then olympic standards thus, having less water turbulence leading to all these WR swims. saw it on like 20/20 or something.

phelps is a great athlete, but it is entirely possible to get caught for doping. marion jones anyone? or both ham brothers getting conveniant injuries right before the olympics, after they were warned that they would not pass a drug test...there are always new drugs that can pass old tests...
but since he has not gotten caught. congrats. he is the man. best olympian ever tho? questionable, because they really do give out swimming medals like candy.
personally, i think the american coverage of the olympics is horrible. i rather jsut see the sports instead of in depth character profiles. less swimming more bball. less handball and softball, more of the martial arts sports.

come on man.. i saw the olympics in different perspectives and guess what.. all of em are in favor for their country.. i watched the russians flaunt on how isinbayeva broke her WR for the 25th time.. (and our freakin pole vaulter ate her own words... she said at pre game that "i hope we do some damage... and you know.. kick some russian butt.." but she got silver. isinbayeva got pissed. she said she can understand english well, ATE HER ALIVE.. the russian was not yet contented.. SHE LEAPS A WR..) hmm lets see, the chinese people televising their ping pong players and mr. yao LOCALLY in china. well i guess all of the broadcasting companies take pride in their homeland's players. you know what im up to. lol
