Greatest

Olympic Village

London

Whoops I haven’t updated this blog for a few days since I was at Big Bear, and which I will be writing about next. Ok this is my last string of posts about Michael Phelps. I just can’t let this behemoth of a champion go easily. Now he has 22 Olympic medals, 18 of which are gold! Smashing Larisa’s record is great, doubling-up on three-peats for both 200m-im and 100m-butterfly is greater. “but is there a limit to greatness?” if I may ask. “You can’t put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.“ sayeth the greatest, ever!

Epic

XXX Olympiad

London

This is epic. The Gold-snatching 4x200m freestyle relay made Phelps the most be-medaled Olympian in history at 19, dethroning Larisa Latynina's 18 after 48 years! As if it wasn’t dizzying enough, he made a 3-peat (a record in itself) at the 200m Individual Medley (Athens, Beijing, London) for a staggering 20! Holy cow! No one can smash that record - ever! Well, at least, not in my lifetime. The unbelievable is achievable!- He made us believe that, this guy, Michael Phelps!

Ryan Lochte Takes Over!

London Olympics 2012
London, England

This is what Lochte said when NBC's Matt Lauer asked, "What will the headline be after the 400m-Individual Medley? Against a 4-time Olympian-14-Gold-2-Bronze-medalist who’s pumped up to snatch 3-more to become the most be-medaled Olympian in history, this declaration may just be a dream or wishful thinking. But if 6-time Olympic medalist Lochte performs as well as he did at the US Trials and the World Championships, it could be a self-fulfilling prophesy. When asked to comment, Phelps hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let the pool talk...."
