Dara just one the national title in the 100M Freestyle in 54.4 at the ripe old age of 40. Simply Incredible. :applaud: :woot:
If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.
I really don't think it is sour grapes. Dara got a bunch of yuck when she made a comeback at 33. Almost as much as she has lately. Gary Hall is the same age as Dara was when she made her comeback in 2000. We haven't heard as much about him as we did when Dara was 33. Why is this?
A few thoughts: 1) 33 isn't as "old" for a male athlete anymore, 2) Dara is 41 and that trumps 33 by quite a bit, 3) Gary Hall Jr. is a more controversial figure in general, 4) Hall isn't working the publicity machine as well.
What does Dara having more publicity have to do with your friends' issues with Dara? That sounds even more like sour grapes to me...
