Given all the debate in the other thread about Qatar "buying" up some of the top talent in swimming, my question is how many people feel the USA should do the same?
Hoogie & Thorpe for our 800 free relay?
Schoeman & Hoogie for our 400 free?
How about on the W's side, a couple of th Aussies maybe?

You ever planning on quoting any facts that show there is detriment to foreigners coming to the US and improving our competitive abilities in swimming and industry? If not, you are just flapping your wings in your little cage. Considering the US has always prided itself on competition and then whooping that competition, don't you think you are bing a little bit of a chicken, in a chicken cage? Does that Brazilian exchange student still give you nightmares? Is this really a personal vendetta? I'm petty sure you could beat him in a swim meet these days.
