                      In all fairness, it’s not like the pole vaulter gets multiple events to compete in. In a single Olympics Phelps won a gold for 100m Butterfly, 200M Butterfly, and 2 different relay teams where he swam the Butterfly… That’s impressive as hell, but it’s still 4 golds for being the best in the world at 1 thing. The pole vaulter only gets 1 event. There’s no relay with the long jumper, sprinter, and javelin thrower…

                            Course, he was also the best freestyle swimmer, which also won him multiple golds.

                            And since he was the best at both, he did won a bunch of golds for IM…

                            But I’m still going to be bitter because the guy was/is(?) a jackass…
