Did anyone see the new Gary Hall, Jr Barbarsol commerical. It is about time swimmers get some good endorsements besides Speedo and the other swimming apparel companies. Madison Ave has really come a long way in the last few years. You would never see a swimmer in a commerical a year after the Olympics before. It is nice to know that all the endorsements aren't going to Phelps even though the boy more than deserves whatever endorsements he get. I mean Phelps is out of this world.

I wish you had a clue. There are certain rules that members of a national team must follow.
Uniform while on deck, Gary doesn’t.
Showing up at all evening events is another, Gary didn't.
As for his "unappreciated genius." You must have hit your head on a backstroke turn.
Those are the rules of being on the national team. THE SAME RULES FOR EVERYONE.
Swimmers are not a big draw period. If swimmers wish to get to the big endorsement levels of say track, they should follow the changes made by NASCAR. From nothing 15 years ago to pretty big bucks for drivers and they are class with the fans.
I don't have a problem with his stand. My problem is he wasn't willing to face the fire and as White Buff said felt entitled. A common problem with many in our world today, it's never our fault. Always someone else to blame and enablers to say you right it wasn't really your fault.
