Re: the MRs,I don't see the US Men winning
Why not? The men's 100 back was very close with the U.S. men going 4-5. We'll give up a second at worst in ***. Phelps should have the fastest fly split and Adrian should be able to maintain a lead if they have one. I don't think it's a given, but I think the U.S. men have a very good chance in the medley relay.
What do you expect from Phelps and Lochte in the final of the 200 IM tomorrow?
Both have a shot at it but I have the feeling that Lochte will have the edge, he was ahead of Phelps after the butterfly today but Phelps had swum the 200 fly an hour earlier, I don't know, it will be tight.
Does anyone know how fast was MP's third 50?
1 3 PHELPS Michael USA 0.69 (1) 25.02 (1) 53.86 (2) 1:23.42 1:53.34
28.84 29.56 29.92
2 4 MATSUDA Takeshi JPN 0.74 (2) 25.25 (2) 53.99 (1) 1:23.37 1:54.01 0.67
28.74 29.38 30.64
He gutted this one out as Matsuda faded in the last 50
Can't believe no one here has mentioned the men's 50 *** with Silva's blatant fly kick at the finish to give him the win. Jeff Commings did an awesome job highlighting the incident and calling for some form of video review. I'll be watching Universal Sports tonight to see if they bring it up. This was way more obvious than the 1 handed touch in the women's 200 fly at 2005 worlds or Kitijima's dive in dolphin in Athens.

That was egregious.
Notice how we don't seem to have anyone medal in the stroke 50s.Maybe it's because we don't send people to worlds based on performance in 50s.
