Anyone know what's going on with Lindsay Benko and Erik Vendt? Are they done/retired, taking a break, etc.
Did Hall officially retire? Lenny Krayzelburg and Jenny Thompson have both said that they are done? Anyone else from the Athens crew?

I know ... that picture is not flattering shall we say ...
I thought Eric Vendt was going into the Navy SEALS after swimming at the Olympics last summer. Was that some sort of twisted dream I had or does anyone know?
Jenny Thompson really needs to retire. She has been on the scene for 55 years!!! Go to medical show or get your hosting gig on some TV show. I respect all that she did but let's see what the up and comers can do.
premiers grown their roster nicely over the years

i think it's an illusion created by the color pattern on her bikini
she is one fine specimen.
here's a few more shots of her, where you can study, uh, her technique, yeah that's it, her technique.

PS Which points out why are motivational speakers always so excited when they talk?
Wouldn't you be excited if you were getting paid that much?
Jenny Thompson did retire and I was very sad to see her do so. She is an incredible swimmer and I don't care how old she is. It's nice to see someone excell no matter what age they are. I was lucky enough to be in Indy to see her last races. I actually got a little choked up when she was on the medal stand for the last time. She will be missed.
