Michael Phelps - How many gold medals in Beijing?

If he wins the gold without setting a new World Record in the 100-fly final, it will be interesting to see and hear the reactions.

I'm hoping he gets another WR, though.

On what Phelps has to eat in a day. I am extreeeeeemely jealous that he gets to eat all that. I love to eat.

Michael Phelps is one Hungry MF?er ? Us Versus Them

Michael Phelps is one Hungry MF'er

MIchael Phelps is dominating in Beijing, and is now one of the most dominant Olympic athletes ever. That would be great if anyone still cared about the Olympics.

I won?t lie, they guy is entertaining to watch. It is fun to see someone dominate every single event he?s in. Can you really be the best at everything? This is like someone on the track winning the 100, the hurdles, the 200, the 400, and the long jump. Carl Lewis came close, but not quite.
So Phelps just let people know what he eats in a single day in order to keep enough fuel in his body through all these races. Here?s the list of what he throws down to hit his target 12,000 calories a day.



Breakfast
  • three fried-egg sandwiches, with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise.
  • two cups of coffee and a five egg omelet
  • a bowl of grits
  • three slices of French toast with powdered sugar on top
  • three chocolate chip pancakes.
Lunch
  • entire box of pasta
  • two large ham and cheese sandwiches on white bread with lots of mayo.
  • 1,000 calories of protein shake
Dinner
  • another entire box of pasta
  • entire pizza
  • another protein shake
How do you even sit down to eat all that? He told NBC that all he does is eat, swim and sleep. After looking at that list, there must be a lot of deuce dropping involved as well. You just can?t burn off that much pure volume.
He better watch out for all of that mayonaise though. Otherwise he might have a different profile once he retires from swimming.

It's destiny, I don't know how else you explain it. 1/100th of a second? And 8/100ths in the 400 free relay. Those races were lost with 25 yards left. I think the lesson here is never ever ever ever ever ever ever talk trash before an event in which both you and Michael Phelps will be swimming.

Wow.

With Barwis, I bet he could win 10+ medals in one olympic games.

If you could not underestimate Barwis again, that'd be great. He could throw for 4,000 yards, rush for 3,000, score 100 total touchdowns, be a lockdown corner with 15 picks, and coach the team with Barwis at his side. AND then win 12 golds.
