wow, first event of the night and both phelps and lochte broke the world record... so sick! lochte has gotten really really good, but phelps is a machine. they were both nearly 8 seconds ahead of the third place finisher, and all you have to do is finish top two to make the olympic team, so they really didn't have any reason to blow it out like that. but they're just both hyper-competitive, and as long as lochte was going to go all out to win, phelps was going to do the same. this u.s. swim team should be amazing in beijing.
