OK. FINA hypocrisy at maximum, statement today (4/16/2015) from FINA Executive Director:
"We may give him another status because he's the greatest athlete (in) history," Marculescu said. "We can do whatever. He is the No. 1. He doesn't need the accreditations."
The FINA official said he has not discussed Phelps's status with the U.S. team.
"We don't discuss with USA Swimming yet because they passed so many waves in the case of Phelps," Marculescu said.
Makes sense to me. The guy is the best ever. At least it is not like the latest cycling bruhaha where they attempt to displace someone who earned a spot and give it to Kirsten Armstrong, a past champion, who has not earned the spot.
