Phelps is just amazing!! 8 gold medals a new record!

You've got to give credit where credit is due. Phelps is one of the greatest Olympic athletes ever if not THE best ever! What he's done is amazing. Call it talent, luck or a mix of both it's something no other athlete has ever done summer or winter Olympics. I love wathcing the athletes preform too like the Jamacian sprinter (forgot his name, somehting Bolt) but I have to admit what Phelps did does stir up some patriotism. Now if he could bring gas prices down to under $3 a gallon I'd be even more impressed

Well we are hoping and praying and working towards maybe...maybe sometime
in the next 3-5 years of trying to emirgrate to Wellington.
Hopefully we could make a stop in Sydney.

New Zealand is beautiful, just a pity about all the Kiwis living there!

I keed, I keed!

New Zealand was originally going to be part of Australia (in fact they remain in the preamble of our Constitution), but they certainly have their own distinct culture. I've been told by Canadians that the Australian / New Zealand relationship is similar to the USA / Canada one, for better or worse.

I hear him described as "best athlete ever" way too often.

If he was the best athlete ever, he'd be able to do any sport better than any human.

I have a feeling he'd do pretty lousy in the boxing ring and football field

that's like folks saying Jordan or woods as being the best athletes ever.Put Jordan or Tiger Woods to swim like he did

It's hard to give someone the title of the best athlete cause no one is the best at more then one sport

He might not be the best athlete but he's the best Olympian ever!!

Certainly the best swimmer ever. Possibly the best Olympian.

Hector the olympics are all about chearing for your country and pride. Just like the pride we felt when the Aussie swim team said they were going to CRUSH the Americams in the relay. lol well thanks for the motivation to win the gold.

Hector, I did hear the Mexicans have an exellent shot at the Pole Vault.
