Geek vs. Gull II, or why I now idolize the Geek and have embraced TI
Former Member
The Geek and I swam head to head this weekend, matching up in the 200 and 500 (in adjacent lanes for both, believe it or not). The Geek won both, beating me by about a second in the 200 and I believe 3 or 4 seconds in the 500. He'd shed 20 pounds since we last raced and shaved (as I did), but he was not wearing a Fastskin. I did swim a personal (Masters) best in the 500, nearly 5 seconds faster than last year, and split it extremely well, but alas it wasn't enough. As the winner, he walked off with a Starbucks gift card and of course this thread.
See you in Austin in 2008, Geek.
Guys......get back to the trash talk, baiting, sarcasm that we all know and love....and soon!
All the nicey nice is wearing on me as well. Having one of the Smiths point it out makes it even worse.
I guess I'll have to go back to making fun of the whiney, sorrow-laden Smith and his fear of foreign swimmers - boo flippin' hoo.
