I just read that the men's 200 MR was DQd at Worlds. That race could've given Phelps a record 8th gold medal... bummer.
Phelps was very gracious about it. He said, "We came in here as a team, we exit as a team."
Sigh.
PS Did you see the size of his HANDS! I would like to swim just one race with hands his size, and feet the size of Thorpe's. (Yep, I have puny little paws!)

It almost looks to me like somebody through a gauntlet down between the 2 teams. The ones on the Pre-lim team were going for a WR and then seeing if the Finals team could beat it......because normally you don't take a chance like that during pre-lims unless you are going for a record!
Just a thought!
