  • The medals were just handed out for the 100m Men's Butterfly...so they'd literally have to run him down to get it back ;)

  • "Protesting" like, they want to see the photo finish?

  • Protesting as in they think Phelps touched second. Sadly, they can't USE the instant replay in the protest so it seems pointless.

  • From swim.com - the protest was denied and Phelps is the solid winner.

  • “When I did take that extra half stroke, I thought I had lost the race," Phelps said. But I guess when I took the half stroke, that was what I needed. I’m really at a loss for words. I’m excited. I just don’t know what to say.

  • CBC is interviewing Phelps' coach - he was so nervous at the end of the race and never thought the Serb protest would go anywhere. He also talks about Phelps' famous 15-year plan.
    by PollyPrissyPants at 8/16/2008 3:42:34 AM
  • CBC: "It's the coach's job to nitpick no matter what. So what have you been saying to Phelps?" Bob: "Not a thing."

  • He's going to "improve his speed" for 2010?! You cannnnnot go faster than Warp 9, Capt'n! You cannnnnot break the laws of physics

  • Seriously...we have Warp Speed and the Speed of Light...I say we create a Speed of Phelps.

  • "How fast are we going?" "32.7 Phelps" "That's f**king fast!"
    by Jonathan Keebler at 8/16/2008 3:47:40 AM
  • See? Works perfectly.
    by PollyPrissyPants at 8/16/2008 3:47:57 AM
  • I think that's it for swimming events at the Cube tonight!

  • From Urban Dictionary:
    "Phelps" : The act of orally pleasing a woman in less than eight seconds. source
    by Jonathan Keebler at 8/16/2008 3:49:00 AM
  • Now you know you've made it when you're included in an Urban Dictionary entry.
