The McCarthy / Salem post was more of a joke, but then again not really.
I think its unfortunate that we live in the kind of world where every new record is met with incredible skepticism.
So no, this isn't the Joseph McCarthy era and we aren't out on witch hunts but as it gets closer to Beijing I wouldn't be surprised if more similarities to those two dark pages in American history are seen.
By the way.... Get ready for a lot of Sullivan-like drops come Trials this summer. You had better believe that armed with the LZR our US swimmers cannot wait to see what they can do.
I predict 3-4 guys under Gary Hall's American record of 21.76 in the 50 and our peformances from what we all mostly believe are clean athletes will make believers of a lot of the Sullivan skeptics.
