Armstrong and USMS - Swimming world article

www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/.../33152.asp Article written by P. Whitten. 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).

  • "Masters swimming is a ridiculous charade anyway." Dude, that's a way too harsh of a comment. I (and I imagine many other masters swimmers) swim for health, enjoyment, and friendship. Why do you call masters swimming a charade? Is something someone does for health, enjoyment, and friendship a ridiculous charade? Your comment right up there with Schubert calling USMS a "glorified losers round." There's plenty of way worse things that people do with their time and money.
