Ok, here's my rant. I was playing tennis with this guy (and winning) and he informed me that he was "pleasantly surprised" that I was "athletic" - he said he thought I was a girly girl. When I reminded him that I swim, kinda a lot (like about 4000 avg/day) AND that I train with the kids who go to Sr.Champs & Sectionals as stuff, he goes "yeah, but swimmers aren't really athletes. Athletes play with balls, i.e. footballs, baseballs, soccer balls." Moron.
