Come on, everyone knows a least one of them. We've all heard of them in the broadcast.
So here's the question, who's your preference Ian Thorpe (aka Thorpedo) or Michael Phelps (aka Stupido).
Mine (obviously) Is Thorpedo.

Phelps for me.. dont care much about either one of them.. except for the fact that Thorpe can keep our Dutchie from gold.. dont like our dutchie that much (the one with the scary-triangle-ribs;)).. but of course i want him to win Besides.. Thorpe reminds me a scary lot of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.. the Swedish footbal player who plays for Ajax.. and I dont like that guy at all... wokeej, not a reason to dislike Thorpe.. but he just remindz me of him and that gives negative thoughts anywayz.. Phelps seems pretty oke to me.. saw him in the race yesterday.. swimms pretty decend ;D ;)Caroline

well, they both are indifferent for me, but if I am forced to chose I would pick Phelps... dunno why.

Thorpe or Phelps? ? Not a hard choice, cos no one can touch our van den Hoogenband. Did u see what he did in 4 x 100 meter estafette? In 1 word BRILLIANT. Well doen on that silver medal!!! ;D

Tomorrow is the 100m... see what the guys can do then.. Pieter is in really good shape at this one.. but it's definetly not gonna be easy.. Anywayz.. in 4x100m he was quicker at his 100 then Thorpe and Phelpse were.. so he might have chance now on beating them.. yoow dutchies, win some more metal!! ;)Caroline

That's true, but then Phelps and Thorpe could have been saving it for the last 100m in the 200m
