Did you here the story, and how could you not have, about how Phelps let Crocker take his place on the last Olympic relay where Phelps could have actually chosen to swim?
I love these stories.
As do others, which is why they tell them all the time.

The Spitz/Phelps conversation was interesting. Today's technology
puts these athletes in the spotlight immediately upon winning.
The pressure must be tremendous afterwards.
They seem to handle it well. This conversation wouldn't haven taken place even 10 years ago.
