    His performance is hauntingly close to the German’s before it was confirmed they used steroids. His lead is so massive the public deserves full disclosure of random frequent testing before this acclaim can be respected. He is representing the U.S.A., this is not just a professional private athlete.

    DRUG TEST PHELPS NOW.
