Michael Phelps Cheating?

Michael Phelps is an American swimmer and 14-time Olympic gold medalist (the most by any Olympian), who currently holds seven world records in swimming. He holds the record for the most gold medals won at a single Olympics; a total of eight, surpassing Mark Spitz. Overall, Phelps has won 16 Olympic medals: six gold and two bronze at Athens in 2004, and eight gold at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Throughout the 2008 Olympics, Phelps was questioned by the press if perhaps his feats were “too good to be true”, a reference to rumors that Phelps may be taking performance enhancing drugs. In response, Phelps noted that he had signed up for Project Believe, a project by the United States Anti-Doping Agency in which U.S. Olympians can volunteer to be tested in excess of the World Anti-Doping Agency guidelines. During the Games, Phelps was tested nine times, and passed all of them. - Wikipedia

The guy is incredible. He has natural born talent that people just can’t grasp right now. In a few years, his times will become the normal rather than the exception. But today - the guy is beating the living crap out of everyone he races.

There was a funny quote someone other swimmer made. Something about Phelps inventing a time machine and sending himself back to destroy “us” [the swimmers].

He’s definitely demonstrated he is capable of destroying world records at will. The dude is a beast!

Michael Phelps can walk on water but doesn’t want to show off, so he swims instead.

When Aquaman needs help he calls Michael Phelps.

Michael Phelps cashed his plane ticket in and swam Butterfly to the Olympics.

Apparently he isn’t good enough for Amanda Beard. Too bad, I am sure he would crush it.

Well he isn’t the fastest swimmer in Baltimore!

We would like to congratulate Michael for his immense success.

We recently wrote a blog post about the differences between his speed and that of dolphins: http://nationalaquarium.wordpress.com/2008/08/21/michael-phelps-vs-dolphins-who-wins-the-gold/

[...] Michael Phelps now has an official girlfriend, and he brought her home for Thanksgiving dinner. Her name is Caroline “Caz” Pal, and she is a cocktail waitress in Las Vegas, who has apparently posed for some fun photos in her lifetime. That must have been an interesting scene at the Phelps house. Maybe Chris Collinsworth can get an exclusive on Momma Phelps reaction to this one. People has more details, but you really just came to see the photos: [...]
