  • I somewhat wonder how people will view him going into the London Olympics. As is stands now, there is no swimmer that will touch him for at least 2 years going forward. Piersol will most likely be out of the mix, as well as Jason Lezac, which could open up the 100 back and 100 free for Phelps - though I am not certain he could get past international competition. I do know I have never seen an individual athlete get as much attention over a short span of time (7 days) that Phelps recieved over the past week. It was on par with the attention given to Jordan or Tiger at a NBA Final/U.S. Open event.
