IMO, no. A commentator was discussing this earlier and stated it isn't fair to compare him to non-swimmers. He has more opportunities to medal in swimming than other sports offer. Track comes in second. Is he the best swimmer? He has the medals to say so. |
I don't know exactly how you would measure "the best". The winningest swimmer of all time? Seems that way. Nice that he retired on such a high note. Though I've barely watched any Olympic coverage so far, I happened to catch a few minutes last night and loved watching your Jennifer Ennis win the heptathlon. To be able to excel at 7 different track events, bringing it home on the 800m, a tortuous - in my book, at least - middle distance, pretty darn spectacular ![]() ![]() ![]() Also caught the Chinese, Sun, break his own world record on the 1500m freestyle (swimming) He absolutely outclassed all of the other competitors. Makes you wonder - what on earth sets him apart? Technique? Conditioning? Heart? All of the above? Incredible. I only catch little bits and pieces here and there, have never followed the summer Olympics very religiously, though I really do enjoy some of the events. Just keep forgetting they're on. Kristine |
