Who would be opposed to drug testing in Masters Swimming? What would be the cost to implement such a program to test winners at US Masters Nationals? and finally, What drugs do you think would potentially be found?..... HGH?.... Testosterone?..... THG?....... IGF-1?..... designer steroids?

  • I think the "tightened faces" reference was alluding to cosmetic surgery. Let's make drug testing voluntary, get Dove to sponsor it, and award a tee shirt that says you're "clean" if you pass. I must be blurry from all the drugs I'm taking. I can't read anymore. And I'm too worried about being busted for skipping nationals to focus on zones. There seem to be a lot of people skipping nationals this year. I like the t-shirt idea. I want one since I'm not getting the "Tour de la Pool" shirt. If I can't swim the 200 fly or 1650, at least I can be "clean." SS: Chlorine is no good for your skin. Jim: How many of those red bulls do you suck down per day at a meet and how long does that red bull buzz last? Hoosier: I like that avatar! Not as much as the Red Sox, but not bad.
