Consider the talk of Phelps winning 8 gold, I wonder who everyone thinks will win the 400 Free Relay. There are several countries that have the potiential to win this race.

    I am predicting a French win. I expect one or more of the Americans to falter on their legs, plus the French pushed that world record unshaved earlier in the year and will be pumped up. Unshaved in LZRs? Is it that much of difference anymore? Why do you think an American will falter (it would have to be in finals)? Phelps won't. Lezak didn't falter at the WCs. Neither did Jones. Neil Walker isn't on the relay anymore. I don't see Nathan in finals unless he blazes in prelims. They'll pick a veteran, right?
