G dog michael phelps is the hottest guy in the world, hes the only reason I watched the olympics I think he is a very well together person the way he knew he did wrong with his DUI and the way he apologized and me being a swimmer myself michael is my idol. 12/3/2004
GOD loves him What a surprise about micheal (DUI). I would wish Mike have knew what he have done. I wonder why this happen so sudden for a innocent boy. And how Mrs Phelps feel about it. Wish him luck. 11/28/2004
gooey all tighty 11/13/2004

Monica Dear Lilmiszswimmer.
Dont mistake my point. Dont be so sensitive. I do love micheal and watch him every step of his move. I dont mean he is poor only if he poor. We should encourage him more as he our today hero.

Casey I have always loved swimming. Of course I'm not as fast as some people. But Michael Phelps has been kind of a role model to me. Like all other girls I want to be Mrs. Phelps, but I doubt that will ever happen. Michael is a very atractive man and I hope my dad can take me to the next olyimpics for my graduation present so I can at least see him. Oh, and the article was great 10/28/2004
god loves him I wonder are you asking for comment about micheal phelps? *If so I would sincerely tells you how I simplitcity of his lives. For me, I am very happy with what he is if I will stand in his family position which I dont ask more or other reasons. Or maybe there is something we dont know it. He is a boy with a lot of future. The boy where anyone loves to watch. Because he been very hard working on the pool. If not, today we will not know him. I sure the god create "fair, you get what you work for". I hope there is a blessing for this innocent boy and be good health, strong body. Once again, so sad to hear his past lives. He will be better and better and the future and makes his dream comes true. I cant wait to watch him to challenge with Ian(Aus). I wish his will retired after 2008 and make a movie of himself so we can watch him more. I search in the internet everyday if he have news for us to be my entertainment. He a star to us now.

swimcrazy "Away from the Olympics I've got a pretty quiet life. It's kinda boring. I haven't got a girlfriend and I can't do the kind of things all my friends are doing as college students. I swim, listen to hip hop and work on my car. But, in my opinion, that's still a pretty good life. I don't know whether I'd want to trade it for anything." if this is not the cutest thing uve ever read i dont know what is. good job in ur swimming, i hope ur back gets better and im really sorry u couldnt compete. ill see u in 2007 pan in rio de janeiro!! Thaiana27@hotmail.com 10/13/2004

10/11/2004
MOnica One thing that he have to take care of himself not a guy like Ian. He is a very innocent boy. He work hard to gain what he is now. A superstar! I alway his love him as a good boy. It is normal to date a lady like Nicole Kidman or a pretty girl in collage. Poor him dont have time to find a date. Dont worry Mike, you are so proud of yourself that rise in your very clean background family even you are not rich. I have wish I can buy you a 2nd car or something he needs. I wish I know you as a relatives. YOu will have a better lives in your future. 10/11/2004
Mrs. Phelps No duh all of my friends think i am so crazy ok i had pics of him and they ripped them up. even though i am from canada i LOVE UNITED STATES!!!!! i am always saying US ROCKS and then they say US SUCKS. any i'll reply after a while. TO MICHAEL ALL MY LOVE. 10/9/2004
Emme Wow!!! Michael, you're already my HERO and an inspiration. I didn't realize we had something in common. We both come from broken homes, and we both were raised by our ( I'm sure struggling) mothers. Thank you, for being such a great role model. Love U lots, you're very talented. Keep staying REAL, that's what we ALL LOVE about U. EmmeAlcala@Hotmail.com 10/8/2004

Marie O MY GOD!!!!!! Michael Phelps is so riped. I love the way he swims with passion. 9/1/2004
Nicole He is so hoooTTT 9/1/2004
Nelleabell I hope Phelps will read this...Michael, from what I understand you do not go to college...are you planning to go back to school? What were your SAT scores? Are you a vegetarian? Have you ever considered becoming a vegetarian? Do you ever get tired of being in a pool? How do you eat as many calories as you eat? Maybe if you try a vegetarian diet you will be able to beat that stupid Aussie Thorpe in the 200 free (btw I have nothing against Aussies) Why do you wear your jammer so low on the hips? (btw I do like it-keep it low)Does your buttcrack show when you bend over? Can I slip a carrot there? You know, Andre 3000 was voted sexiest vegetarian, but you would so win if you went veggie. Well good luck in the future and stay off the meat! 9/1/2004
kaeley OMG HOW CAN HE NOT HAVE A GF?! sht i would do ANYTHING to date him, hes seems liek an awsome guy all together, man hes so awsome 8/31/2004
chelsie I LOVE michael phelps!!!! can i have his email address? 8/28/2004
chelsea i think michael is a GREAT swimmer and agree that swimming should get more recognition here. i too am a swimmer, not near as good as michael, but i did get 8th in state once! :) i love swimming, but i hate it when people say it isn't a sport. it;s probably the hardest sport out there because it takes a like of determination and skill. I think michael is right that it is disappointing that swimming isn't taken more seriously.
8/28/2004
Hallie Oh my gosh Michael. You inspired me so much. I actually learned alot about life from you. Thanks alot. I wish I can be your friend. 8/25/2004
Natasha this is the best article i've read so far about Michael. Thanks to this, now i know he still doesn't have a girl friend, so I can put my hopes beyond my life. 8/25/2004
NicoleH Michael Phelps...he is my role model. I have a picture of him beside my bed, so I see him when I wake up every morning. He inspires me. He's only 19 years old and already a 7 time Olympic Gold Medalist. What does that say to you?? He's an awesome swimmer and an awesome role model. 8/24/2004
Heather I think this is a great bio. I am a big michael phelps fan, and I think your interview is awesome because it touches on stuff that you don't see on every bio. 8/23/2004
