* Dream Team stunned by Puerto Rico * Puerto Rico 92, United States 73 August 15, 2004 It was by far the worst defeat for a U.S. men's team, coming in the Americans' first game of the Athens Olympics (Athens_2004) "I'm humiliated, not for the loss -- I can always deal with wins and losses -- but I'm disappointed because I had a job to do as a coach, to get us to understand how we're supposed to play as a team and act as a team, and I don't think we did that," Larry Brown said. http://sports.yahoo.com/oly/news;_ylc=X3oDMTBpY29qbG50BF9TAzk2NjcyOTgwBHNlYwN0aA--?slug=ap-us-puertoricobko&prov=ap&type=lgns

Certainly Phelps had every reason to be tired, racing for the 17th time in seven days. Another thing: Phelps is sensitive to teammates who have been overshadowed by his amazing accomplishments leading up to these games. "It's the right thing to do," Phelps said. His gesture wasn't lost on the International Olympic Committee. "He's a great champion," said IOC president Jacques Rogge, who watched Phelps' victory from a front-row seat at the Aquatic Center. "Definitely, he is going to be one of the icons of the games."
