If you guys watched the news last night at 11pm eastern standard time, then you saw this. Michael phelps beat cavic by .01 seconds with those freakish arms of his! cavic had the win and michaels freakish arms won! man! cavic totally deserved that medal! what do you guys think? Here is the news article: NBCOlympics.com - Seventh heaven for Phelps Anyone else think its BS?
lol! That stinks! hey, he is the 8th fastest swimmer in the world! now you can be proud of your country for getting 8th lol
Michael Phelps is having a good year this year, it's remarkable how many gold medals he is getting. He will probably be like the Buccaneers at football, do really good one year and then suck the next (though I doubt he will suck he will probably not get as lucky).
He won because of the position of his arms... He was lucky and was starting to extend his arms, the other guy on the other hand, was already done extending his hands.
Generally, unless someone is cheating, the swimmer who touches the wall first deserves the gold. Last time I checked, there is no maximum arm length for competing in olympic events. Unlucky for cavic that he didn't develop freakishly long arms, but he's gonna have to deal with silver. And congrats to phelps for 8 golds.
cavic obviously didn't considering phelps touched the wall first I don't kno wut ur smoking but cavic didn't win
Kind of, Jans, the only reason that phelps won was purely because of his long arms. he was behind him and yes, i agree that the win was phelps. but i think that cavic should have won it. cavic won the swimming part, phelps has like 3ft long arms so i think it was not fair. i see that PHELPS WAS NOT CHEATING! I KNOW THAT! I THINK THAT THE MEDAL FOR SWIMMING SHOULDVE GONE TO CAVIC THATS ALL! if you watch the new footage, you will see how close it is. and is, purely, nothing short of amazing.
Well i know many people say he doesnt deserve to win but how gutted would you be to get 7/8 gold medals .. But now he has all of them so its a great achievement!
