[seankane]

haha sry. that guy is a beast, apparently he eats like 4 massive courses of food each meal just to have the energy he needs.

yeah, like 13,000 calories or something, it's absurd. i'd puke if i ate that much.

 

[Kenny O.]

[Snow Patrol]

[zprestoe]

[Manzie]

Lol Ian Thorpe would get pwned by that, machine? But our girls are rippin it up in the pool!

 

[Corey]

phelps is THE best swimmer, period...he lacks in some styles but OVERALL hes THE best. you cant argue it, its a fact lol

 

[Jordan Jasa]

Lol Ian Thorpe would get pwned by that, machine? But our girls are rippin it up in the pool!

if ian thorpe is so good, wheres his 8 gold medals in one olympic games?

anyone else catch the 100 meter race? that jamaican guy pwnd, and he would have done better if he wasn't celebrating during the race haha. i think they said he would have gotten 9.59 if he kept up his speed.

 

[tanner markley]

no one owns their sport more than michael phelps
its like putting coedie donovan with his skill now back in 2002

 

[felinaferoz]

umm no, i can name several people
Eddy Merckx
Pele
May & Walsh

 

[Pete Pachota]

Any aussie acting tough in this thread is a huge fail, sorry. Thorpe quit and Sullivan sucks, he gets owned in every final race.

1) If Kenny Owens were a country (whoresylvania, perhaps), he'd be second overall in posts.

2) In the total post count, Owens would be 1st overall because most of Andrews don't actually exist.

3) India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Egypt, Mexico and Bangladesh (appx. combined population = 2.1 billion) have earned a total of four Olympic medals in Beijing. Owens, (appx. population = 1.3) has 11362 posts.

4) Owens has written over 2% of the posts in the scooter resource forums

5) including the United States and Australia, the rest of SR has made a total of 489169 posts in the forum.
Owens -- well, you get the picture.


Kenny Owens does supermans. fact.

hey, i challenged him back in the day. my name still strikes fear in his heart.

 

[Jake Carlyon]

How about you READ what I said before retorting, retard.

obviously not people still stand a chance against them
he breaks records in every event
he isnt beatable by himself

 

[Aaron]

Phelps is doing right now, what Thorpe/Hackett were doing a few years ago.
Except in more strokes..
Almost every time either of them were in a pool, they broke records and came first.
But still Phelps = machine.

 

[Pete Pachota]

I guess that Bolt might be the one who owns his sport as much as Phelps, he can't win as many medals cause it just doesn't happen for runners to run many different distances and win, you can't be that versatile. But if there were different running styles he would prolly still win and beat world records every time. Another thing is that there are 16 medals to win in men's swimming, which makes the ultimate opportunity to win 8 golds, I guess the only other sport making it possible would be men's gymnastics, with 6 apparatus, all around and team medals.

 

[tomborsari]

truthfully.. i think swimming gets boring to watch and that they showed it too much

i did, i don't understand why you're all mad now? you think thorpe wouldn't get pwned by phelps, i said he would.

you shouldn't call people retards either, especially a moderator.

 

[mynameisjaymez]

True story.
My mom read into him a bit and found this out.

Phelps was bullied when he was a kid.
His ears stuck out and he had ADD.
His mom tried to put him in every sport but just couldn't find his Niche until he got into the pool.
Its helped him concentrate i guess and got his life in order.
It just goes to show you how anyone can do anything.

 

[skadityska]

its cause phelp's's body was practically designed for swimming. he's got short legs for stability, and a big torso for beasting it out with his arms...at least thats what my brother told me. i could actually give two sheets less about swimming.
