    Phelps may be laughing all the way to the bank with his Speedo sponsorship dollars but he is in danger of losing most of his world records. Phelps already lost the 200 free, 200 IM, and 100 fly WRs. He has a chance to reclaim the 100 fly - but Cavic's semi WR was .4 faster than Phelps WR from three weeks ago. Bowman's whining aside - I think it is ridiculous for the best swimmer of the last 20 years to lose most of his WRs this year because of suits. USA-S may need to create a "last chance" event in LCM this year for Phelps and a few others to taper again to put on the best possible suit for posterity sake. Speedo can't even create a "record breaker" suit for this because they probably can't get FINA to approve it.
