      I believe Phelps wins because of his big ears. He's like a flying fish with them.

        Phelps make a name on the Olympic, but no contribution to the Olympic team's sportsmanship.
        on his part.

      Swimming has too many events and allowed participants especially considering the low number of countries that actually field a competitive team.

      Events require skills that do not need Doping(Explosive Animal Strength) !
      as a result, America won very few Medals.
      Running and Swimming need Doping Explosive Beast Strength !!!

      Americans are DOPING away Olympic Medals !!!!
      * Doping is to have Explosive Animal Strength for Running and Swimming !!!
