"Phelps' time of 53.01 seconds was the second-fastest ever... That prompted coach Bob Bowman to warn the rest of the swimming world of the unthinkable: Phelps can go even faster." video.google.com/videoplay abcnews.go.com/.../wireStory www.theage.com.au/.../1185648212627.html

    I'd guess he'll drop the 200 back (he seemed to say as much at Nationals) and probably the 100 free. I can't imagine him dropping anything he has a WR in or the 100 fly. I wonder about the 100 Free. Last time he didn't swim it and there was a lot of controversy on him being on the 400 Free Relay. There are many more this time around who should get a spot. Do you think he needs to prove his place on there by swimming the individual at trials?
