2016 Summer Olympics: Rio preparations are 'worst' ever, says IOC VP

[Salodin]

Hit two dozen gold medals, and 25 lifetime medals. He still has 3 more races but damn he can just stop now and be goat for probably decades.

He is not a human being.

[Mertron]

he should come back and swim in 2020. sure he'll be 35, but I'm 36 and I was in a pool on Sunday and I didn't die or anything so he'll be fine

[Salodin]

But it'd suck to see him not exit on a high note. He is already the greatest Olympic athlete by a mile, there is no reason to keep going until he gets eliminated in the US Olympic trials =/.

He eats 12,000 calories a day. Like, holy fucking hell.

He's the most accomplished Olympian, but I wouldn't say the greatest of all time. He benefits from an exceptionally large number of events he can enter vs 50 years ago. There's at least 10 athletes you could throw into that conversation and have a legitimate argument for each.

no

K. We'll just ignore all the other variables. I mean, breaking records (one of which stood for 48 years) while breaking Hitler's face is weak in comparison. Or winning gold in the same event over the course of 8 olympics. Going literally undefeated in every event you entered for 3 olympics is pretty weak shit as well.

He's just a tall, successful, rich white guy.

He has 21 out of his 25 (I believe..maybe 24) medals being gold. in terms of greatest olympic feats ever, i'd say doing that over the span of how many Olympics he's been to is pretty good

but if you wanna get testy about it or w/e, you go right ahead

[tyven]

Michael Jordan is the greatest Olympian ever

[Odesseiron]

The 1992 Dream team is the greatest Olympian ever

Fixed for you sir

what did Chad Le Clos do to fuck with Phelpsy?

[Krandor]

I feel bad for people too young to have experienced the 92 team

lot of stare downs and other stupid shit like shadow boxing while standing right in front of him. leading up to the olympics he was talking about how he was going to beat him. Fuckboy didn't even medal.

First Olympics that USA was allowed to use professional NBA players, and they rekt the world. Good times.
