I feel sorry for Crocker. If he wins the 100 metres butterfly, he will have effectively ruined a uniques olympic momentous quest that Phelps has embarked on.
No matter how good it is to win gold, poor Crocker would not be given the accolades he deserves if he spoilt Michael Phelps party. It wouldnt matter so much if Crocker wasnt in team USA but from another country. On the other hand he has to give his all. So effectively, he is damned if he does and damned if he doesnt

I think one good thing going for crocker right now is that he has less pressure on him than before because everyone is expecting phelps to win. We all know Crocker has it in him. I don't care what he went at trials. Look at Athens, he split a 50 in the free relay, lost the 100 fly, then came back and split a 50.2 in meadly relay. Crocker just needs to focus and hes got it.
