Tribute

Ok haters, stop right now!

This post honors our man Michael Fred Phelps.

You got to give it up for a guy to do what he did. Yes, he is a freak in the water. An unbeatable freak at that.

Make no mistake-Spitz was awesome. WAS. It is time for the world to check themselves (swimmers at least). This was an unbelievable feat. Any and all witnesses will agree.

No, he probably couldn't have done it without a little help and a bit of luck. But he did it. No one else has even tried. My hats off to him. The training alone would have killed me. He managed to pull it off with the whole world watching. No pressure there. Would I race him on land? Maybe. In water? Not a chance.

You go Mike! See you in London, 2012...
