Here's a nice writeup on the masters team in Beaufort, SC: www.beaufortgazette.com/.../5955112p-5242196c.html
I imagine Skip Thompson will remember Coach Fetters.
Anyway, I don't see too many write-ups about masters swimming in the paper, or adult sports in general, so this is good to see!

Nothing wrong with it at all. If everbody is happy then there is no issue, nobody is being forced to listen to the guy. However, it does not change the fact that his personality is coarse and abrasive at the very least.
