Michael Phelps - How many gold medals will he win?

[rytheguy]

Michael Phelps is my favorite U.S. Olympian this year. He has already won two gold medals (and broken two world records) and has a chance to win 6 more...

How many do you think he'll win?

[neneclix]

maybe 5, i think

[IdolEyes787]

Six but in the not too distant future they will be taken away when it is found out he was doping.:01:

Okay serious 5 or 6.He will lose at least one of the longer freestlyes and the 100 m butterfly .

Did anyone see the USA pwn France in that superb comeback last night?

It was the Mens 4 x 100M if I recall.

They not only broke the world record by like 4 or 5 seconds, but the top 5 finishers all beat the previous world record. :O

[rytheguy]

I did see that; it was absolutely amazing. By the way, Phelps just won gold in another event! 3/3 so far, 5 more to go!

26

Edit my response.After seeing him effortlessly win his heat in the 200 fly,I'm not betting against 8.

He's a knob but not of this caliber.So I can live with it.

[DSLFreak]

It's now looks like it will be 8.

[Lex Luthor]

7 or 8

[rytheguy]

Lol, this guy is insane. 5/5 so far - new world records in every race. It now seems inevitable that he'll get 8. How can he be THAT much better than anyone else in the world?

[Sanka113]

We'll, he's half way to 8 so I think it's very possible he can get that many.

[Skiz]

He's 5 for 5 thus far and has just become the most decorated Olympic athlete. Still 3 events to go too.

He's destroying old world records, some of which are his own. He just shattered the old world record in the 800M by almost 5 seconds and it was his own time.

The guys a freak; there's no way anyone should be that fast in the water. :blink:

now .. he won 5 gold medals..

i think 3more gold medals he'll take

[markupmaster]

I think it said earlier on TV today that he has won 11 gold medals in his career..

Is that right?

[Skiz]

Yep. 11 gold medals so far between the Sydney Olympics and these.

[jack18]

isn't human..

[markupmaster]

Wow..

That's scary..

The guy is a beast!

:lol:

[IdolEyes787]

Yep. 11 gold medals so far between the Sydney Olympics and these.

Actually Athens Olympics.He won 6 gold and 2 bronze there.

[rytheguy]

6/6, all world records. It's not even that exciting to watch him anymore; it's just not fair for the other competitors...he's way too good! Come to think of it, it doesn't even seem like he's all that excited either, because he knows he's going to win. Sheesh. 2 more golds to go.

[NA_Magus]

.01 of a second.

7/7

[rytheguy]

I don't know how he won that one...this must be fate. I am convinced he is destined to win all 8 golds this time around.

[Septimus]

Up to now he won 7 medals and he can win another one. I think he will win that last one

[NA_Magus]

8/8
That is all.

[Invalid]

simply amazing

[OTO]

Only one word, amazing. :w00t:

[Ramus]

remarkable lol

[73051598]

[emadmet3eb]

[McBride]

[Lindsay<3]

i know its well after the Olympics now but the Para Olympics have just finished and there too just about every race beat the Worlds record...even the losers were beating national records.There was either something in the water.....or maybe the were swimming downhill!
