Michael Phelps...

Okay, I'm sorry, but seriously? It was funny the first couple of times, but the fact that the .gif is now probably posted 4 of 5 times throughout the forum in different sections, it's already getting way overplayed.

[Callisto]

I totally forgot it since the last time it was posted in this thread 2 hours and 20 minutes ago.

[Serif]

Tony Kornheiser and Mike Wilbon said it best today on PTI. The water in the pool is juiced.

Who gives a shit if he can't talk well to an announcer.

The only reason I watch the Olympics is for Swimming/Track and Field/Volleyball/Gymnastics. Those are the only really good events they show anymore.

I just hope it doesn't come down to the last relay and one of his team mates fucks up or worse he fucks up at an event.

[Akiyama]

Well the .gif is funny, but it's been posted a few times a couple times in this thread, a couple times in the Olympic thread since it came about, and in the Random Image thread. Seems like everywhere I go, it's there, lol. D:

And yeah. WR's are dropping left and right like flies. It's crazy. I hope he doesn't lose in a relay or because he has an offswim, but what he's doing is incredibly hard and he has to be perfect.

well that's not the complete truth, you'd be surprised how close to it it is

three reasons the Water Cube is the graveyard of WRs:

1. the depth of the pool is 1 meter deeper than the Olympics before, less water resistance near the surface

2. it's indoors, and the air and water are better conditioned than outdoor pools

3. there's a layer of fresh air being fanned on the surface of the water, and the swimmers are breathing in highest quality air as they swim

those are the reasons that all kinds of WRs are being set in this Olympic beyond what Phelps has done, and unless the pools from here on all follow suit the records are gonna stay around for a very long time

Technically speaking his "hardest" swims are already over, it's not just a matter of him not getting to tired from the blitzkrieg he's running.

[Rigor]

God! What a jerk-off he's all good and stuff and isn't happy just being as good as he is, that jerk has to go and try to do better??? WTF I mean normal people never want to better themselves when they are good at something thats good enough, why be great?

To top it off, this a-hole isn't a silk tongued interviewee worthy of being a politician. What kind of athlete isn't good with words at all times? Fuck, I mean what normal person can't make bitches cum just by talking in interviews??

I also hate how exciting the 4x 100 relay was and how close he is to attaining a place in the history books, how dare they cut off some BORING, RETARDED, OLYMPIC BOXING!!!

[Elesirdur]

Lol at all those idiotic threads. He's a guy who is just amazing at his sport and is the heir apparent to Mark Spitz.

Except Mark Spitz did it all with a sweet moustache.

[Xavier]

I only like to watch losers.


Phelps is just an animal in the water, I couldn't believe he won that one race with water in his goggles.

Yeah, I know. That's what I mean. I hope he doesn't stumble down the stretch or one of his relay teammates don't screw up.

[Kang]

And the men's and women's eights!

[Churchill]

Pretty sure the summer olympics is swimming, gymnastics, soccer, running, and volleyball.

anything else is shit anyway and no one cares about it, most of europe doesn't care about the swimming because they're so baww at it.

[Kyo]

basketball and womens softball nigga, wtf.

[Rigor]

BEACH VOLLEYBALL!!!!

[Kyo]

I was adding to his list!

Also I just skimmed over a few posts and please if you live in the USA and cant appreciate his accomplishments and acknowlegde he's the most decorated olympian, then move your happy ass to russia. it's funny you never hear other countries citizens bitch about their participants winning gold and getting the publicity that they rightfuly deserve it's rather retarded to piss and moan about people representing our country winning medals and doing so well.

[Belipo Jones]

Niggas want to see Kobe dunk and drop 50. Stop being insensitive, Fuck!

[Kyo]
