Michael Phelps retires from Olympics with final gold medal at London 2012
Michael Phelps has retired from Olympics competition with a final gold medal in the 4x100m medley relay. Report by Sam Datta-Paulin. Like us on Facebook at ...
I don't know who "dumbass" is? Yes, I understand that this particular vid
isn't a "political" vid. All I was pointing out was these so called "Gold"
medals are not really Gold. They should be referred to as Silver, since the
medals are made of 92.5% of silver and plated in Gold. Yes, I follow RT
among all other alternative media outlets. I follow Peter Schiff, Max
Keiser, William Engdahl, Mises Institute, Craig Roberts, shadowstats,
zerohedge, etc. What is so great about you?
Its really sad that they don't present the medals in solid gold anymore. of
course the majority of people would agree that its for good reason that
they discontinued solid gold, but just think about how hard every Olympic
athlete has to train in order to compete. And why the hell does the
government want to raise a tax onto the gold medals that the athletes have
to buy, after winning.
a lotta haters out there ..lol...well after 18 gold medals and a total of
22 medals all in the olympics i see not only phelps and the mens team, but
the womens team standing on the medal podium, so instead of bashing
phelps...congradulate him and trhe rest of the US swim team for their hard
work and medal winning effort.....CONGRATS to ALL of the United States Swim
Delegation...!!!
I'm not attempting to so called trash his career. I was simply pointing out
that the Olympic medals are not made out of what they used to be made of
and for a REASON. Look up precious metals and why they are so called
Precious. Then, look up the Federal Reserve, the history of our currency,
all of the ones that have collapesd and WHY!!!
@ThePurpleking777 what the fuck are you going on about? the only thing I
could work out from that is that you prefer black to white people.. and how
does Michael phelps bring eaten by lions have any relevance to him winning
gold at the Olympics? you need to go somewhere else and shout your random
thoughts.. somewhere like an asylum?
Explain to me why the only American Sport (no offense America) is field
hockey yep, the only reason is because they are flexible to do other stuff
not just sit and do one thing like a catcher or pitcher in Baseball sure
there are some specialists in swimming but they do usually at least two
events so good bye and have a nice day.
It is hard but...he has a point. You can be the best football player, the
best basketball player, but unless you compete in a sport were you can do
multiple things such as swimming with 100m,200m,400m breast
stroke/backstroke/the normal one(i fogort name)/and butterfly you wont rack
as much medals.
Oh my god weed is not dope lol. It helps him eat a lot so he can have
enough energy, who cares what he does in his personal life, weed didn't
help him win. And mind your own fucking business do you have have 19 gold
medals? Didn't think so...
Big deal, obviously winning many metals in swimming is far easier than
doing it in any other sport. The swimmers always take home multiple metals.
Now the world can go back to not giving a damn about swimming.
its not because of his age, it's because of the sport he is in, swimming, u
cant swim for too long, always going to be a younger person to beat you, he
already made his mark in history and in the olympics :)
Winning medals is easier than winning a GOLD medal. Phelps has a
record-breaking number of gold medals, so I guarantee to you that it is NOT
easy. How about you go do something with your life....
Lmao you shitting me?! ...WHO GIVES A FUCK. Still made History, no? Still
got more important gold than you, no? Still a legend, no? Soooo, let's look
for another way to bash his career....
It wasn't me you told. Look again :D I just saw you wrote "not because of
his age" and in the same comment "always going to be a YOUNGER person", or
"can't swim for TOO LONG". ;-)
I'm a Brit but wanted to say congrats to Michael he has done the world
proud with his career, has to be up there with Mohammed Ali as one of the
greatest sportsmen of all time.
Michael Phelps is probably not human. Has he been genetically modified or
what? No seriously, Phelps is just an incredible athlete. Too bad he's got
to retired...
Hats off to London and the Brits and all who helped host a very memorable
Olympics. They proved they know how throw the biggest party/event in the
world!!!
Mike will ALWAYS be a national hero but instead of holding fast and
standing his ground by placing the s(pot)light on the cruel and morally
wrong campaign against Marijuana WHILE HE WAS IN POSITION to do that, he's
lost the respect of his fellow smokers who could've used that support in
the timeless hope of getting these moronic politicians to take a better,
second look at the serious drain on the American economy as they fight a
ridiculous drug war against one of God's best creations, Cannabis!
@MelOAyness If only you were as open-minded as you think you are. The only
thing I disagree with you on, is that he was not under any obligation to
become some sort of "weed messiah", a position you seem to think he was
qualified for based solely on the fact that he smoked it once or twice. I
eat cheese a lot, but that doesn't make me an expert on cheese. I actually
agree that it should be legal, and I hope that one day you do find your
spokesman. But it will not be Michael Phelps. Accept it.
@Daviticus042 It isn't the frequency nor the number of times that Phelps
smoked pot that is at issue here, it's the fact that because the government
has made marijuana an illegal substance, Phelps is classified as a
criminal. If I were accused of a crime, I might want to know that my crime
has been defined by more than government mandate, that is to say that
government NEVER had the right to classify marijuana as an illegal
substance in the first place! It's MY mind and MY body, screw them!
@Daviticus042 Dude, the only thing that I'm sucking up, is this smooth bag
of hydro buds. Actually, Phelps should have been as fast before that camera
lens as he is at the 100 meter butterfly. The real shame here ,is that
smoking pot should never have become an issue at all, but since I see that
you are among the class of those who are misinformed, narrow minded and
caught up in the great marijuana myth, I can understand why you feel the
way that you do. Build a bridge dude. And get over it.
@Daviticus042 What has regularity got to do with the fact that he smoked
pot at all? Enjoying one decent buzz, without getting the overwhelming urge
to take an axe and murder his family, should've convinced him that the
government's position on the "killer" weed, was bogus from the start. He
had the opportunity to stand up for what he obviously believed in and he
didn't and with many of us users, that is the bottom line. So much for Mr.
Phelps.
@MelOAyness i kinda understand where your coming from, but it couldve
ruined his career, even if he straight up said, "yes i love smoking weed,
what of ive done more with my life then most of you, shouldnt that bbe
proof weed isnt bad?" alot of people would still hate him and make up
excuses like oh well he outta the norm, it wouldve been virtualy useless.
@MelOAyness Aww, you feel like he let you down? Well, too bad. The choice
was his to make and he made it. If anything, your self-righteousness only
confirms that he did what was right for him. So suck it up, Junior!

coli20, This is what happens when dumb ass parents expect celebrities and
