Sptiz also mentions that there are more events now than in '72.  He is certain that he would have won more golds if he could have swam all the same events Phelps can.

I saw Phelps shattering 100 meters record he did it so effortlessly i guess he deserves to at least share the honor with spitz.He wasnt even breathing heavy when he was out of the pool. :drink:

hehehe. i dont need to keep hearing that the day of the perfect 10 is gone under the new scoring rules of gymnastics during each performance

Who the heck can explain the new scoring system ie... what is a good score versus a bad score?  Because the commentators can't.
