In another thread a member drew a parallel between learning to get off the block at the sound of the start horn, and Pavlov 's dogs salivating at the sound of a bell. That reminded me of my favorite tee from my college days. On the front: Does the name Pavlov ring a bell? On the back: No, but it makes me drool!
So, that thought led me to thinking about all the cute tee shirts I've seen kids wearing at meets and was wondering what your favorite swim tee shirt saying is?
At the last meet I timed there was a young woman there who was truely very fast. Her tee said, "Don't think of it as losing, think of it as being beaten by a girl!"

My favorite shirt:
"You must be fast, cause I was haulin' ass when I passed you!"
"California uber alles" - 1986 Cal men's swimming
"More powerful than a speeding milk truck" - 1985? or 1986, in tribute to Vic Riggs, who was hit by a milk truck at Pac-10s and swam at NCAAs a few weeks later.
CAAs 2005 conference meet my sophomore year, the UNC-Wilmington mens team was going for their 4th straight men's title. their shirt backs had a hand with 4 fingers (with championship rings on them) in a rather lewd gesture with the caption "it hurts more with four"
i never quite figured out how the coach let them get away with that.
