Barry bonds is a baseball player who broke the home run record, then got busted for having used steroids and other performance enhancing drugs. An example of someone who you could arguably say "doesn't deserve" his record. Your anti Phelps attitude (though it doesn't matter to me one way or the other) is most likely just your garden variety anti-Americanism that even though on the decline, is still in vogue.

Gunner 1,
I sort of can relate to your feelings.
I remember , as a young boy, watching Spitz set that record (I think he got a silver also). It was a historic moment that set such a high standard that it seemed it would never be surpassed. I was a little sadden for Spitz. (He'll become a "who?" in the future).
But on the other hand, I think most of us grew up feeling "records were made to be broke".
