Torres has opted out of the 100 free in Beijing. Lacy Nyemer(sp?) will swim the individual event in her place.

Glider,
I think it is readily apparent that Dara does NOT feel the same aches and pains as the rest of us her age. Secondly, there is no exemption clause after you make the team to call an "age" handicap for your special recovery needs in between events.
Lindsay,
I see no contradiction. People who are suspect of Dara's PED use expect more out of her performances for precisely the same reason.

John, question....please don't take this the wrong way........
Somebody eluded to this earlier in the thread.....
Do you have a personal grudge against Dara?
I ask this because no matter how many people disagree with you on this or explain logical reasons for her doing what she is doing.....hell she even said this was what she was going to do prior to Trials....You still continue to bash her decision as being selfish.
Here is a question for you:
If you were ranked 7th in the world in the 100, probably not a shot at the top three, and you were 5th in the world in the 50 with a pretty good shot of making the podium.......You would actually swim the additional swims knowing it would wear on you for your best event?
