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!)
Geez - the dude made a mistake, we all have false started in our lives. It's not the end of the world or anyone's career. Never seen such whining about a false start.
I hardly think a false start in an athletic competition qualifies as a huge mistake. I would guess that when it's all said and done, if that's the worst mistake Crocker makes in his life, he'll feel pretty good about it. I mean, it's not like driving a big SUV while hammered.
Lefty made a good point and us lefties need to stick together.
