Michael Phelps , the biggest Olympic athlete in years, if not ever… is everywhere this season.  This 23-year-old from Baltimore has proven himself in the pool.

Phelps has won 14 gold medals, the most of any Olympian ever. Eight of those were at the Beijing Olympics, which end Sunday. His achievements at this Olympics broke American swimmer Spitz’s record of seven gold medals at the 1972 Olympics in Munich for most won in at one time.

One gold medal is amazing. Two is incredible. Three? Practically unbelievable. But eight? Eight gold medals? That’s … that’s well … well, we’re going to need some new adjectives for whatever that is. CONGRATULATION, MICHAEL PHELPS.
