Since many of us might be waiting for the tape-delayed broadcast could everyone please refrain from putting any spoilers in thread titles? In fact since there's already an Olympics thread it's probably best to just post there: 2012 Olympics: Swimming - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums
I figure that one's fair game. Everyone can choose to avoid that thread if they don't want to see the results as they happen.

As an unknowing spoiler during the trials (and feeling bad because of it :blush: ), I agree! I vow NOT to be a spoiler again when (I hope!) Cullen Jones wins a medal. :D
I also agree with keeping Olympic posts on Ande's thread. Ande has done a great job on posting links for the Olympics, as well as the schedule. It's a great one-stop resource for the Olympics! :applaud:
Goooooo Team U.S.A.! :cheerleader:

No way, Jose. You get MNF at a decent hour so I'm taking my revenge. What's your cell #, btw?

Just because you are too lazy to get up at 2:00 AM for the prelims, you want the rest of us to play fair?
I assume tomorrow’s Men’s 400 IM and other events will create a lot of forum and general internet buzz. If you want to be tape-delayed surprised, your best bet is to stay of your computer!
We won’t be taking down any spoiling threads/posts, but I personally pledge to not post any swimming performances until after you left coasters have a chance to experience it first hand. Albeit many hours after the real deal.
On a side note, this has got be tough on the athletes from the west coast. Early morning prelims with a 7 hour time lag is indeed the wee hours.
They've had time to acclimate. I believe they've been training in Europe for the last couple weeks.
well i know i'm an outlier, but i like to know the results; it doesn't take away from the excitement of still watching the race for me! so if anyone wants to start a "spoiler alert!" thread, i for one would be reading it! (yeah i know, i can try to get on the nbc site with millions of other internet users...) go team usa!:cheerleader:
If it's of any consolation Kirk, you can watch everything from your computer or phone in real time.

That would be nice if I had a job that I could ignore and just sit in front of a computer, or be allowed to use a cell phone all day (again, ignoring a job), which of course my phone doesn't do the internet thing either. :)
I'll just wait for tape delay, and just pretend to not see anything on the forums before the 8:00pm showing on tv.
