On the off chance that you actually want to know the answers (but based upon your last diatribe against Mr. Marsh, I suspect not)...
How do you all feel about this?Good for him. Good for Israel. Great for the world of swimming. Let's see the equation here ... More swimmers get faster in Israel = more people get interested in swimming = more global support for our wonderful sport.
Should he be allowed to represent the US internationally while selling our secret sauce to other countries?Uh, what command & control non-globalized world do you live in? How is the rest of the world getting better somehow to the detriment of the US? Competition does not weaken us, competition challenges us and makes us better. This is not a zero sum world.

Hear, hear!

In a related Forum thread, BraunMan has already described David Marsh as follows”
--“Marsh is overrated and should NOT be the head women’s coach.”
--“Cullen Jones’ failure to qualify is a huge indictment of Marsh.”
--“David Marsh should not be considered an elite coach. Period.”
--“Marsh at the Olympics—just pumping his fists, doing nothing, but taking all the credit for the swimmers he inherited and didn’t build.”
--“Time for Marsh to answer questions in front of the press about his boy Lochte’s behavior.”
Obviously then, David Marsh clearly does not have the “secret sauce”. So why would it matter that he has been hired by those poor Israelis, whose national swimming program is now doomed?
