Lezak can Phelp it

I saw all of Michael Phelps’ gold medal wins. Phelps needs to forever worship his teammate Jason Lezak. The crux of his winning eight gold medals was not he, himself, but, Lezak. Phelps’ dream would have ended on the second gold medal quest itself – the 4x100 team relay. On the last leg, freestyle, the US is trailing to Alain Bernard of France (a man who would later destroy the field in the 100 mts freestyle individual), and all hope was lost. Lezak, then swam what is for me the greatest comeback of these games. He won it for Phelps.
