Phelps' Olympics

Is it just me, or should the bigger story with Michael Phelps be not only is he winning gold medals in every event, but he is winning every event with a world record. To me, if Phelps only even ties Mark Spitz's record of 7 gold medals, he should still be regarded on a much higher accord due to EVERY race being in world record fashion. Just a thought, but I think the news coverage needs a bit of a shift of focus.
