I guess controversy sells ... "Track and field is so much more physically demanding ..." Michael Phelps is not the greatest Olympic athlete in history

    I guess controversy sells ... I assume you had that in mind when you wrote the thread subject line? The journalist didn't "dis" Phelps or "slam" swimming. He did demonstrate a lack of swimming knowledge and underestimate the difficulty in dominating in multiple swimming events but that doesn't really amount to slamming swimming.
