Dilemma---Lochte or Phelps?

So I am a huge swimming fan. I am a swimmer, still to this day. I swim a mile at least 3 times a week. I am cheering on Michael Phelps. Holy crow, the man can swim and swim fast and well. He is amazing. So my dilemma. Tonight Michael Phelps swims against Ryan Lochte in the 200 IM. Do I cheer on Lochte or Phelps? Why cheer on Lochte? He happens to be the son of my high school swim coach. She was pregnant with him the last year I swam in High school ( oh my God I am old!). So, it is like GO Lochte! But it would be cool for Phelps to win 8 gold medals . This can only happen if Lochte does not beat Phelps in tonight's 200 IM. BTW, that was one of my races. I have to go for the underdog, Lochte. Tomorrow, we shall see ( cause I can't stay up that late). Let the best man win!!
