US Gold in the Medley Relay is a given, right ?

Lochte may derail Phelps in the IM - but I would not bet on it after the 200 Back. So then it's up to the 100 Fly, which may be close with Cavic now in the picture - but I saw Phelps going out pretty easy and still almost getting him. So then the Medley Relay is always a lock for the US - maybe not this time: Peirsol will probably drop another record or get close. Hansen will have a lead - but he is not exactly Mr. Confidence right now + *** and Fly are a little scary swimming from the front. Phelps in the Fly - not sure about Phelps in a relay. I don't think he has ever had to swim a fast relay leg. But my guess is that he will be fast - he is the man. Lezak in the Free - maybe the best Free anchor out there - Japan looks good until the Fly and Freestyle - I think Russia and Great Britain have a hole in the end. France has no Backstroker - What about the Aussies ? Maybe 0.5 sec out in the Back, then the Breaststroker as good as Hansen on paper. The Flier just dropped to a 51.2 and then it's Lezak against Sullivan.

    How about the Ladies ? hoch: I think the US women can beat the Aussie women Coughlin vs Seebohm Emily hasn't produced the same times as she did at their trials and Natalie is now sub 59 Soni vs Jones Rebecca looks good yet over 2 lengths Liesel could challenge Magnuson vs Schipper Christine was closing on Jessica in the 100 fly final looks even to me Torres vs Trickett with Dara having a 52.44 relay split under her belt I think she has the edge I think Natalie's back leg is the difference US by .50+ Actually each really could go down to the touch--what a treat for fans
