Whack-a-swimmer?!?

As I dropped off the kids this morning at Grandma's (who took me to meets almost EVERY weekend as a kid) I started ranting about the Worlds. She said, "Could you believe he was hitting her?" To which I replied, "Huh?" I was talking about the world records. She didn't know details, but it made the news that a man was literally hitting a female swimmer, close-fisted. She was trying to defend herself and run away... not too much information, as all she saw was the trailer. What the heck? Can someone fill me in?

    I, being a woman, thoroughly depend on my husband's sense of chivalry, etc. that he won't hit me back. When he teases me I give him a good whack. Of course that's all in fun- I agree, men don't hit women, women can hit women though! A good cat fight is always entertaining! :woot: Indeed. The hits you describe are lacking malice. My wife subjects me to those now and again.
