Although I was very impressed with Sabir the swimmer, I was not impressed with Sabir the person. What was up with him flexing his muscles before the 50 FLY? Is this the NFL/ NBA or is this master's swimming? I didn't appreciate the "hey everyone, look at me" attitude. Swim the race, shake hands with your competitors, and be thankful for the gift God has given you. Don't show up your competitor like a Pro Wrestler. I wonder how much muscle flexing Sabir will do before events at the olympic trials! I have much respect for him for his talent and swimming accomplishments. But after his display before the 50 Fly, I have little respect for him as the person.

I already noticed you! But you're so dog gone far away!
Oh, and about Sabir, I got to meet him in the hospitality suite, very nice, friendly and easy going guy.
I think muscle flexing bit was cute. I mean people were about to bring the house down cheering, I think little bit of showing off in response to tthe crowd was very appropriate and in the spirit of the whole thing.
Perhaps we shouldn't jump on quick judgements of someone's personality based on one instance. That always bothers me, when people judge someone imediately before they know anyting about them.
