    most atheletes are rather competitive and works better under pressure . it brings out their true potential.

    although i think crocker still holds the record...

    I think that would be in most cases. You would think the same for Ian Crocker but somehow he comes out short, again.

    He still holds the record but there's a possibility Michael would take that away next year

    7 is a lucky number, I suppose Besides, it'll give him some room to grow for the Olympics, where he shall get 8 golds and make (more) history.

    What were bellamia and net betting on before they both went into hiding? Grant Hackett in the 1500m? Gosh, Hackett was just plain bad this time around. He's definitely out of shape and needs to step it up if he's planning on still competing.
