I did not know that USMS does not belong to USADA. Rumor mill speculates that a percentage (small? large?) of masters records (FINA, USMS) were set by athletes on performance enhancing drugs (PEDs).
It doesn't change the fact that Masters meets are still a ridiculous charade.
How, exactly? Yes there is a wide range of ability levels represented at masters meets. Some people compete in masters purely to have fun. Others take it very seriously. I see no problem with either approach.
