OK just read that Katie Hoff has gone professional. Not that this has any bearing on anything but I am bit bummed.
I really was hoping that she would break Pablo’s NCAA records for most wins in college. There is a part of me that
really wants to have swimmers be amateurs, but that is quickly blasted out of the water with all the DUAH! Why
wouldn’t an oober athlete get millions of dollars for their athletic talents --that is years overdue. Does any one think
swimmers will get to be “divas” or “divos” like some professional athletes?
I also would have liked to see Katie go pro and I'd like her to stay at the top of the sport for a long time. With that being said I do think that she needs to take advantage of her opportunities NOW. Who knows what life could bring her??? In a year she could have a career ending injury and in 2008 we would be saying "Katie who?"
