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

    "Nearly every good freestyler can be a good butterflyer, and vice-versa.":joker: What an ass-hat. :shakeshead::shakeshead: what a joker... ok im not the fastest freestyler, but many many times i get compliments about my stroke. numerous coaches have mentioned how good both my freestyle and backstroke are (i just dont have the power or stamina to be fast enough) but despite that i suck the big one at fly!!!! i can do 50m tops! and then i just cant do it any longer. its still a wonder to me how people can do 200's or even 400's fly... it just seems impossible! probably just not cut out for it.
