I see that the Championship Committee is finally considering having distance swimmers pay more for their splashes. See www.usms.org/.../champ-2012-3-25-1.pdf. This is long overdue since they are the reason that national championships last so long. If we only had 50’s and 100’s we’d be done by noon every day. Maybe with increased fees swimmers will think twice before entering a 1650.

Sure, then let's go to 25s only and then we'd be out by 9am. Hey, better yet, how about we just race to the flags and call it a day?
What a stupid idea.
This is called swimming ... if anything, we need to remove the 50s, especially in short course, so we can see more swimming and less starting, turning and underwater dolphin kick.
