Michael Phelps - To Good To Be True & Clean

No way Michael Phelps is clean and not cheating. Now do not get over anger with me. Hear me out first and then start to think for yourself. First of all, Michael is dream for America. He is perfect and that is why I think he is a cheater. Obviously he has top people working for him on this mission to win all these gold medals. He has been trained to act and speak in manner that is friendly and nice just not to United States but to rest of world. And yes, he is an excellent swimmer. That can not be denied. But the best in every event? I don't think so! It is not hard for athletes to always be step ahead of steroid testing. Soviet Union always knew other countries such as United Kingdom and China cheated in older Olympics. It was the only way to keep up with our better athletes who trained year round and received everything needed to be the greatest in the world. Those were great years. And now they are gone. It was harder to prove cheating with Americans. They were better at it. Now testing is a little better but not much. Think about it. This nice clean man that all girls want is always the best? What if he was from another country like Russia or China? Americans would suspect he was a cheating! What if he was rude and not nice? Then world would also call him a cheater. Get this right and make no mistake. People that act nice can cheat just as much as those who are mean and ugly looking.  Now please understand. I do not wish for Michael Phelps to be proven cheater. I want to be wrong about this thinking. But I don't think I really am. World does not need such news. But I think it would be better to test athletes right after winning events and wait until tests prove there is no cheating before handing over medals and singing country anthems. It just makes more sense. And then world does not have to wonder if people like Michael Phelps cheat at what they do. Thanks for reading. I like it here.

"Soviet Union always knew other countries such as United Kingdom and China cheated in older Olympics. It was the only way to keep up with our better athletes who trained year round and received everything needed to be the greatest in the world." So, everybody cheated except for the Soviet Union?

So your argument is seriously that because he is dominant and clean cut, he is a cheater? I guess we should lock up Peyton and Brady for steroids while we are at it.

I can't believe I am reading this... Stating the Soviets didn't cheat... and Phelps is cheating because he is too clean cut and the All American Boy.... I don't rule anything out...he could be cheating, but I highly doubt it.

Did anyone see when NBC discussed Phelp's body and how it is freakishly perfect for swimming. He has a longer torso and arms than someone his height. This gives him a longer stroke and more upper body strength. Then, he has shorter legs than someone his size which makes his kicks more efficient. Add all that to is size 14 paddle-like feet and you have a body built to swim. Now, train for 8 hours a day and the sky is the limit when it comes to swimming.


How's it going Jamel. Why don't you put a pic in the article.

This is not like baseball, where drug testing is random and periodic. Phelps has been tested constantly ever since he became an Olympian 8 years ago. If nothing's come out now, it never will. I think Milorad Cavic wrote this...

Even worse. The "good guys" are trying to get at me by using their superior journalistic, creative and "humor" abilities to undermine the site that harbors truest of evils like mine.

Let's say there's a "thejoke" out there that is more sad like a clown than funny like a clown.

Oops! We've blown their cover. Now they'll say they didn't do it. Drats! Those pesky "good guys"!!!

SERIOUSLY, HOW COULD YOU ACCUSE AN ATHLETE WHO DOES VOLUNTARY DRUG TESTING OF CHEATING, AND BECAUSE HIS MOMMA RAISED HIM TO ACT CURTEOUS AND WELL MANNERED, HES A CHEATER. AND BECAUSE THIS GOOFY UNPROPORTIONAL MAN IS BUILT FOR SWIMMING, HE IS A CHEATER. I MEAN YOU ARE SO UNJUST AND UNINFORMED IN YOUR ACCUSATIONS YOU SHOULD GO WRITE FOR A STUPID GOSSIP MAGAZINE. I THINK THE MAIN AGENDA HERE IS TO POINT OUT THAT AMERICAN HAVE FLAWS AND TO DEFEND FLAWS OF OTHER COUNTRY'S ATHLETES. AMERICA IS A HATED COUNTRY, AND YOUR UNFOUNDED ACCUSATIONS OF AN ATHLETE WHO HAS WORKED HARD TO PERFECT HIS CRAFT PROVE ONCE AGAIN, THAT EVERYONE WANTS TO BE "KING OF THE MOUNTAIN". GO AHEAD AND ACCUSE SPITZ IF YOU ARE GONNA ATTACK PHELPS....

Wow...that was the worst article I just read.

1) Are you a swimmer? We swimmers weren't even recognized until the 2000 Olympics or so.

2) Phelps became the face of US Olympics just recently, but has been dominating international swimming since he was 15 (He swam in the Olympic finals during the Sydney games).

3) His skill couldn't be attributed to his determination, strict training regime or freakish (yet swimmer-perfect) body.

4) The Soviets never cheated. Right.

5) The increase in speed from swimmers from around the world must be ignored. Only focus on one swimmer's accomplishments, and then blame them on steroids.

1) No. Wait, what? 2000?

2) He finished 5th in one event. In other news, the Reds continue to dominate the NL Central. 3) I prefer to think it's all the fat Michigan chicks. 4) If the kettle is black, then the pot is not? 5) Current men's world records come from a total of 6 countries. Hardly a We are the World contingent.

Every time I respond in this thread I feel like the terrorists have won.

1) It's technically a Y10K issue

2) The Blues would crush the Reds at a game of Purple.

3) It's only about half of the fat Michigan chicks (and the fat ones all go to Ohio State anyway)

4) If your pot is black, get a new dealer.

5) Band Aid smokes We are the World - tonight Thank God it's them instead of you!
