Hi, I am a new kid on the site. I am a hugh Phelps Fan looking to communicate with other fans, especially after the lost today, I am very blue. I think this article lays it all on the line and I am confident that MP is now on a mission and thats a good thing.

There's been some pretty huge backlash to Bob's statements. People see it as a powerplay, arrogance, or sour grapes.

Yeah I've heard that too. :( I saw a video of MP talking about it on swimnetwork and he didn't sound arrogant at all. People love putting words in other people's mouths.

Whatever people think of Bob, one thing no one can argue with:

"It took me five years to get Michael from 1:46 to 1:42 and this guy has done it in 11 months. That's an amazing training performance. I'd like to know how to do that."

i second buzzy on that.

imo, he vented not only because of bb's loss to paul, but also because of yesterday's fina public announcement and MOST IMPORTANTLY the rumours which immediately followed that their decision was once again still in discussion.

what's disturbing is the fact that the int'l swim federation no longer seems to have authority. i believe fina needs help from above or the situation is going to dangeroulsy compromise 2010 if not 2012.
