Is Michael Phelps the greatest Olympian of all time?

[pilebuck13]

Yah know just a random murder

[Russian Rocket]

A state sponsored response bought to you by Russian Rocket under the direction of Vladimir Putin

Hey Rocket, what would've Putin done had Trump's veiled insinuation been directed towards Vladamir?

Please get comfortable kids and pass me some popcorn...a fairy tail story that was rejected by IOC is once again brought to you by the biggest Russophobe on this board ACoochy

Unlike you I don't live in the world of "What IFs"...and that's the biggest difference between you and I.

Hey Cooch what if you could actually vote in US? What if they open their borders for one day so you can sneak in? What IF Cooch?

and btw it's Vladimir...please don't mistake him with your gypsy cousin Vladamir.

Non response

Doesn't want to paint his Messiah in less than glorious colors

Your degree of denial against homeland doping is almost cult like

Yeah they did nothing wrong. That's why NO russian paralympian is allowed to compete?!?!

But wait, everyone has it wrong except for the perpetrators themselves right??

Can't make this degree of delusionality up

[TheMoneyShot]

I don't remember one advertisement aired about Phelps. No promos. Nothing.

Thought this guy was retired. Then he has an amazing performance.

Feel free to post here a single scientific proof that meldonium increases athletic performance.

Don't rush...take your time with this one Cooch

In order for you to use my mentality you need to first have my mental capacity...and you're not there yet Coochy...but I'll let you know when you start to make some progress

Thats why we experts and specialists who make rulings over these matters...

Don't pretend like it's only Meldonium...Some yes but worldwide reports say it's oh so much more...

Athletes from your homeland could be shooting llegal PED's up at their events in open air and you'd still say they were jacking orange juice such is the degree of response bias..

I'm sorry ...what was that? You came back empty handed again?

HA!

Carry on now child


PS: I also love yet another "Could be" from you...you're back to your delusional WHAT IF world

[Ghenghis Kahn]

that south african dude didn't even medal.

[ACoochy]

Oh gawd id be in real trouble if that unfortunacy were ever to befall me...

Wouldn't want to be your brand of fanatic pal

[unde0087]

[ACoochy]

that south african dude didn't even medal.

Thats the glory of the Olympics.

When it's a level playing field more upsets tend to occur. Like the kiwis getting beaten by Japan in the rugby 7's...

Japan were paying +2200 for that win...

[Russian Rocket]

yeah maybe then you'll be to see past 2-3 articles that you read on the net
you will be in trouble though, no doubt about it...as I'm not sure that your brain will be able to process that much info

Rag me out all you want but at the end of the day you CHOSE to be a Trumptard (and yes Trumptard is the most apt title considering you still back him after all his 4th grade goof ups), hich says more about you than i ever could ever want to and hence you are continually giving yourself the ultimate payout everytime you say something good about your Messiah...

How's Messiahs rape case coming along?? Early next month his court appearance on rape charges of underage girl is due yeah?

Stay classy Rocket...

1. Luckily I don't have a Messiah in my life.
2. I'm not sure how many times I have to repeat this so it registers in your head, that there are plenty of things that I don't like about Trump. But there are a lot more things that I don't like about Hillary...so there you have it.

I didn't choose to vote for Trump...Hillary and her actions over the past say 4-6 years made that decision for me. And it was an easy decision too.

Where is the guy that was pumping up AUS as the best since they had like 4 medals over the weekend. They have a total only 9 currently

Checking in

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Can't stand this guy

OK. I'm sure Phelps wishes he was u!

[thechaoz]

21 bam America the best athletes

es he is

[Peter Portman]

Do not think that it is wise to make Gods of a man.

[ACoochy]

Looking across all sports id say he's a better athlete than Tiger due to how he has such resilience in the face of adversity...

Both have had there fare share of dramas but lean Phelps mental ground game much stronger than Tigers when the pressure is really on...

of course and much tougher sport physically

Swimming one of toughest things you can do

[Snowball]

We'll never really know, just like in almost all sports,
there are differences over time in various factors.

Consider one I've noticed which nobody talks about.

Compare the two different launch platforms.
Obviously, there is a big advantage now as opposed
to the past. So different, that it is physically impossible
to get the same initial thrust with the old platforms
as the new.
Why would the Olympic commission tolerate such a thing ?
They want records to be broken. It pays.
If you really want to go back, they didn't even have platforms.
And the water level was much further away.

My cousin is a multiple record holder who represented the
U.S. in the 1940 London olympics. The women's team had
to take a long boat ride across the Atlantic, then compete
shortly after landing. She was sick as a dog and came in
like 4th or 6th, far worse times than when she was home.
I'd like to see what she could do in today's pools and prims.
Historical sports comparisons are simply not valid.

[jjgold]

guy is a beast

will he win 100??

[Andy117]

Medal count speaks for itself. 20 golds, no one else even has half that.

Although it's hard to compare different sports.

But if it's not Phelps, then who exactly?

Best swimmer ever but it's impossible to compare medal counts. Runners don't have as many different events to try to medal in.

[pavyracer]

Leonidas of Rhodes is the best ever. Learn your history.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Great job, Mikey!

One of a kind:

I'd expect him to re-surface as a coach. Can't see him just drifting away.

[gummo]

Twice as good as the second best Olympian so not even a discussion.

[Booya711]
