I mean - check out the head on it!!! Half of that bastards body weight comes from just his chin. I don't care what you say - you don't get that hideousley deformed unless there is some serious chemical work going on

Sorry I'm late to this, I've been busy watching the U.S.A beating the crap out of the formerly notable Australians in swimming. You know Ray, there's some amazing similarities between that photo and your avatar, minus some notable exceptions.

1) Phelps isn't taking on / in the amazing flaming penis.
2) Phelps ab's are much more noticeably streamlined than your own, not to mention the definition in his arms.
3) Phelps is a world class athlete caught up in a moment of triumphant celebration. You're just a guy who has never competed on that level and thinks it's funny to make fun of people who dedicate 4 years of their lives to a singular pursuit and further think they can rightfully call them a failure for coming in second or less.

And BTW, this is coming from a guy who has just as much of a protruding chin judging by your avatar. What is that, about a hand and a half from your nose? (Don't judge it by your own hands, find someone with larger, more normal sized hands or else you'll be at 2 or 3) There are prostitutes that could increase their business a hundredfold with that kind of jaw expansion.

OK, I'll do something you didn't. Admit I'm just giving someone a good natured ribbing. If you're not and you consider what you said to be true, take a look in the mirror man. How many Olympic medals do you have?

Hey - don't get me wrong. I don't begrudge the guy his success. The USA pharmacological industry is absolutely world class! Number 1!!!.

And I would never EVER make fun of somebody who has dedicated 4 years of their lives to a singular pursuit - that being to swim to one end of a pool - then turn around and swim back again. What sort of a person do you take me for!

Of course, if I didn't personally boycott both the Montreal and Moscow Olympics, and spend the majority of the 90's with a nasty groin strain, I probably would have had that many gold too. It's not rocket science after all. In the many after-dinner speaking engagements I am called upon to do on this subject - the thing I always like to remind the youngsters coming up in the ranks is this: "At the end of the day, it's not whether you win or lose - the most important thing is to always remember that at he end of the 100m freestyle, you are standing on the world's stage in your underpants and goggles and with what looks like a condom on your head"
