Have you heard that the swimmers in Greece will have to swim in a pool with no roof. The "jokers" in Greece, despite having 8 years to prepare for the games, have said that they do not have enough time to finish the roof on the Olympic pool.
It will be 104' approx in August at midday. The water will be too warm for fast times and the glare of the sun will make filming for TV difficult.
Apparently, they are looking at moving heats ( apt word for them ) to early morning or late evening, after the finals !
What effect will this have on results, especially for swimmers who are doing multiple events ( like Phelps ) ?
:mad:

I hope that tarp isn't blue. That will look like ass also.
For some reason I'm envisioning a Beavis and Butthead episode: "Hey Beavis, check out that Michael Phelps dude, he looks like ass!":D
I can see where you're coming from with respect to the problems with shadows. That would definitely be a challenge for the cameramen.
