I'm about tired of NBC and their Phelps is the best athlete ever in the olympics. Best swimmer, YES... best performance by an individual in the olympics... ABSOLUTELY
But... best athlete better be able to beat one of the old school guys that went pro in THREE sports (baseball, football, track), Jim Thorpe. Phelps can swim and swim only, so he's not even on my list as best athlete ever in the olympics.
