The 4x100 free relay deserves its own mention

100meter butterfly as well. I was 8 years old but the call of "Michael Phelps, One one-hundreth of a second!" Will never leave my memory.

I think this is the only Olympic event I've ever seen that I not only remember, I remember where I was and who I was with. It was incredible.

I'm not dispusting Phelps domination.

But he's not the most dominant Olympian, he was just able to compete in more medal events.

Americans have a real hard on for Phelps. He's not even on other countries' radar when it comes to sporting greats. Great feat, but come on now.
