Looks like it is to gain 20 minutes of rest before doing the 400 IM.
What do you folks think? Fair play or not?
I say anyone attempting the 1650 and 400 IM back to back deserves some slack.
I find myself in unfamiliar territory, agreeing in principle with Leslie. I hardly equate adding a minute or three on my entry to joining the Taliban or al'Queda(sp?). But maybe I should rethink my new turban and mobile missile launcher.
I haven't sandbagged in ages. I just like to argue with the morality police. :) And while I'm at it, maybe we could have an Ostracism Provision for swimmers that selfishly use split requests like poor Patrick. Why allow swimmers more opportunities to get more times without a beat down? We should instead make them feel really bad about it because they have theoretically reduced competition by approximately 12% in their heat. Not that anyone else in the heat particularly cared or even noticed ...
