Phelps vs Cavic

[Systat]

Any value on Phelps or on the 'Field' ? I think Cavic wins this one but...

Current Pinny lines:

Cavic -277
Phelps +250
The Field +1480

Any swimming experts out there ?

why is phelps such an underdog in this? I thought he was like the best of all time. It must be a distance he doesn't specialize in?

The suits

they are swimming in a suit ?

3 piece ? jacket on or off ?

seems to me that it would get awful heavy underwater .

they reduce friction. They almost make you float. Not heavy I believe because world records are dropping like flies.

I'm not a swimming fan, and I'm not much of USA vs. The World type, but the way Phelps competes should make sports fans, especially from this country, very proud.

That was the euro-sissy who is still whining that he beat Phelps in the Olympics and then he was talking shit yesterday. Don't talk if you can't back it up.
