first, only basbeall players get hundreds of millions,a nd that is not what happene dto phelps.
swimmers donot get JACK SHIT as far as money. just sponsorships fom swimwear companies and such. Because of his fame and immense medal count, he received cntracts to shill for kellogg and whoever else. kellogs, being a kiddie brand, probably got a hundred chain calls and letters from some fucking "watchdog" group threatening to boycott frosted flakes. BULLSHIT. but it is how the system seems to work.
