Swimmers get no respect

As I was browsing around for articles on tonights Bengals/Ravens game I ran across this article and this quote. www.msnbc.msn.com/.../ "I mean, this isn't a soft sport. We don't play chess. This isn't swimming. This isn't one of those kind of sports. It's football. It takes a man to play this game, and to play this game you have to have passion.'' I had to laugh.

    Yes, that is why we call the former set "team sports." See how you use the adjective thing to differentiate? Here try this out: acoustic guitar : electric guitar :: team sport : _________ This is the best response to Warren I've seen yet. I knew some_girl was a smart girl when I saw her use the word "caesura" on that butterfrog video thread. (some girl, I'm trying to change my user name to not rip off yours.) And I'm not sure if swimmers will get as much respect if they're butterfrogging unless they're over 50. Anyone over 50 swimming in a meet should get a big round of applause (and any newbie swimmers trying it out as well).
