Who is your fav swimmer?

I think Ion was talking about a certain look, Aaron Perisol fits the blond upper middle classs surfer look from southern Orange County California. I like his looks but I think his main strength is the 200 meter backstroke and not the 100 meter backstroke. Lenny has the eastern European look and has a slight accent that appeals to some women. Lenny I think now has a better chance in the 100 meter since Aaron is weaker there but there is Mr Welsh from Australia another top backstroker that could give both of them trouble. As for Mr Ervin, he's the first swimmer with a minorty background from the United States since Pablo Morales to win gold at the olympics. Anthony is a 1/4 Afro-American and Mr Pablo Morales is Latin from Cuba. Swimming is a sport that at the top level has been dominated by people from a european ancestorial background in the United States. Swimmers like Anthony Ervin and Pablo Morales in the past broke thru the barrier and swam well without coming from the usual background of top american swimmers. On the international level there are many top latin swimmers and swimmmers like a afro-background and asian swimmers.
