Update: Phelps gets pu**y galore!
As the world celebrates a remarkable victory by Michael Phelps at the Beijing Olympics yesterday, LA TIMES’ writer – Bill Plaschke – continues to take negative potshots at the Olympic Champion.
As I noted in a post yesterday, Plaschke called Phelps a “dork”.
Today, he continued with his negative jabs at America’s darling.
First, for some inexplicable reason, he found it necessary to knock the swimmer by noting he was busted for a DUI once.
If that wasn’t disagreeable enough, he proceeded to not only make reference to a “broken” wrist in the past but – inferred somehow – that behind the incident some dark secrets hid in the shadows yet to be revealed.
To top it off, he made fun of a moustache that Phelps once sported.
Then, he summed up by asserting that Phelps was “still a dork.”
Obviously, Plaschke is jealous of Michael Phelps!
Notwithstanding, Plaschke is undoubtedly one of those demented individuals who has to tear other people down in order to raise himself up.
When the hack writer at the daily looks in the mirror in the morning, though, he is faced with an ugly sight.
Staring back at him is the face of a man who never wrote the great American novel or received any accolades (or respect) from his peers.
Of course, when I talk about recognition – I mean from serious literary critics- not from incestuous clubby organizations who think they know what writing is all about.
The sportswriter also has to reconcile the fact that he has stolen ideas from other writers in order to keep his own creative juices flowing.
Yes, I have proof!
As to Phelps, he has the grace to turn the other way.
That’s the difference between a good sport and a bad one.
Loser!
Phelps has nookie with gal pal!

Michael Phelps has earned all his metals fairly! Did you know that he has half the lactic acid build up of a normal human?

Dear alcocheck:
Yes, he did win fairly.
The pressure on him must have been unbearable, especially the last couple of days as the world and media looked on.
As to the lactid acid build-up note, I trust that is good?
Thanks for taking the time to input your comments.

He is awesome, he deserves the attention. Criticizing Phelps is completely transparent – jealous, jealous, jealous!

Michael Phelps is, without a doubt, the face of his sport just like Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Wayne Gretzky, Muhammad Ali, Brett Favre, Roger Federer and Babe Ruth. However, for all that he accomplished in this years Olympic games, I still don’t think he ranks in the top 5 all-time Olympians.
Here is my TOP 5 All-Time Olympians:

Let me know if you agree.
