I like Michael Phelps as much anybody, well, maybe not as much as NBC, but I can't help but hope that he doesn't beat Mark Spitz's record of seven gold medals in a single Olympics.Maybe it's just because he's an Indiana Hoosier like me, or maybe it's because he won all those medals in '72 with a badass moustache.
Also, Spitz never had a NASA-designed suit. Although from the picture above, it looks like he was toting some kind of rocket.
Go USA!
