if you live in the U.S.  you need to love this guy.  he is like americas wonder boy.  the man eats 12,000 calories a day and is in the pool for 5 hours a day sprinting not just swimming.  his body is a swimming machine hes unreal

To be homo or not to be homo? I'd say homo. It's ok. He's hot. Not an ounce of body fat. No one can resist a guy in a Speedo. Very hitable.

why the fuck does NBC feel the need to show his mother so much? nobody watches the olympics to watch some old lady jumping around in the stands. They were even showing her during the womens races, i felt like throwing the remote through the TV.

His mom is his only family. She is a HUGE part of his life.

They do that shit every Olympics though. Get used to it.

i'll get used to it when she jumps in the pool and starts swimming, but untill that happens, lets keep the cameras on the athletes.

oh and he has two sisters and his parents are just divorced, so he does have other family...

Bollocks! Did you get your bloody crumpets yet? Stupid sod.




OK, but I haven't actually seen his dad at any races. His mom, I would say, is his biggest support system. Plus, she's the loudest.

that was so sick. phelps def. deserves all of the medals he has won because he trains like crazy.

what is wrong with showing his mom on tv? she is his biggest fan, he wouldnt have won all of his races without her, and it was for like 15 seconds at a time. and if they wernt showing her would you rather watch the swimmers get out of the pool? they show tanner halls mom and dad for the xgames.

that guy is absolutely ridiculous... he seems like a modest and pretty good guy as well.

i have met ian crocker on a couple occations, he even came to one of my swim practices once because hes from portland maine. so i got to meet him in person and hes pretty cool.

claim.

yea i get chills when i hear Phelps talk but not in a good way...like they showed picks of him as a kid with braces but i don't think they did enough cause theres somethin' going on there like some weird over/under bite? other than that i think hes amazing! but i just have a weird thing with imperfect teeth...


 fun fact: brendan hanson is our local olympic swimmer i swam his sister during high school (bitch, once spat at a girl during a swim meet, craziest part? her mom stood by her for it )  Brendan is cool though never heard anything negative about him.

Michael Phelps is a hottie. It's as clear as fresh water. I'm a guy and I admit that- and if I got the opportunity, I'd date him. I'd become a celeb just for dating him!
