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.
My coach caught Sabir on tape as well. My two year old son thinks Sabir's posing and hamming it up is absolutely hysterical. He begs me to play the scene over and over again (and I do, just to hear him laugh).
My son has caught on to the fact that I purposely rewind the video just a little further so that he's forced to watch his Mama swim her 50 fly too. He tolerates my need to be center-stage for 30 seconds, but only because I have the remote!
