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.
A few observations:
1) RE: Sabir flexing, I hope anyone critical fo Sabir playing around has the oppurtu nity sometime in their life to satnd in front of a 100o+ people screaming for you and keep your composure. In other words lighten up.
2) Tom, I'm with you about pissing off Connie as I have seen how fast and how "sharp" the girl can reply! By the way, I had a brief "thing" with Connie in the stairwell at Indy!!
3) Ion, I'm VERY dissapointed that he has been banned. I have always championed Ion's passion for this sport and his ability to get people fired up and writing with all his baiting. Ion is a unique person and although I don't agree with a lot of what he posts I do think he has a right to be here.
4) Swimmer, you've got a great sense of humor and sarcasm. I will however say i think your a wuss by not showing who you are! It's easy to spout off, except when your known! Be a man/woman and put a name to your sign.
