    "The only thing that I would have wanted to change was the 200 fly. I think I can go faster in that event. It was a wardrobe malfunction. But it was something we took care of and we were able to fix. Other than that, I think this was a perfect week."—Michael PhelpsNBC: Phelps' audacious dream completed in Beijing (August 17, 2008)
