if crocker doesn't get better from his sore throat then there's no way he'll beat phelps in the 100 fly
he's nowhere near 100% (evident from his horrible swim in the 4x100 relay, posted the SLOWEST time of anyone that swam in the relay for any team)

He said he felt that he blew himself up a bit by 100m so he couldnt give a second push later on!

If they swam in Phelp's actual strengths (200/400 IM 100/200 fly, even the 200 back) thorpe wouldn't even be close

the fact that Phelps can dominate in so many different events makes him the best overall swimmer. period. the fastest? depends on your definition of fast. technically alexander popov is still the fastest cause the holds the record in the 50 meter afaik, could have changed

basically you know what you talk about, others don't.

Great victory for Thorpe, Pieter gave him good competition. And i give my vote for the 100m free for Pieter, maybe on another amazing sub 48 swim.


i think pieter will win. i think he swam under a 47 time during the 4x100 relay. dont count out popov either - olympic vet, multiple gold medalist, WR holder.
