Phelps: most decorated Olympian ever

Michael Phelps just won his 10th career Olmypic Gold Medal breaking the previous record of nine held by several athletes including Mark Spitz and Carl Lewis. Phelps has eight events on his schedule in Beijing and so far has swam four and has not only earned a gold medal in all four but has also broken the world record in each. Event number five is up in about an hour. Look for an update soon.

TAKE THAT, TERRORISTS!

update: make that 11 overall, 5 (with WRs) in Beijing
update2: make that 12 overall, 6 (with WRs) in Beijing! WTF, PHELPS?
update3: make that 13 overall, 7 (6 WR 1 OR) in Beijing! That last medal was by 0.01 seconds and Phelps has now tied Mark Spitz record of 7 golds at one Olympics; also, I doubt anybody is reading this far back.
update4: he did it! 14 overall, 8 (7 WR 1 OR) in Beijing!

Yeah, al-Qaida definitely needs to send a swim team so we can kick their ass. And by we I mean Phelps.
