When did we start putting the fastest 50 freestyler in the world on the 400 free relay? Nowhere in the relay selection criteria does it say the 50 free enters into this. He isn't even close to the fastest 100 freestyler in the world and looking at the prelims of the free relay he wasn't even the fastest 100 freestyler on the B relay.
Comparing him to Jordan doesn't even make sense. Jordan never let there be doubt he was the best. Gary made his own bed. Got third at the trials in a time that was 4th fastest in the US for the year and then got out split by Walker in the prelims. He swam on the appropriate relay.
You're the one that quickly points out people don't deserve things. Hall didn't swim his way on to the relay. That's all that counts.
