I recently got a copy of the document attached below and it astounded me. I know that there is widespread disagreement and rancor on this Discussion Forum but I was completely unaware how far up the chain it went.
Sad day for USMS indeed.
Jim,I love swimming against you.I'd have loved it more this year had you been .04 sec slower.I am looking forward to swimming against you at Mt. Hood(you will be there won't you?)I have ordered some "special"Red Bull just for you.
Allen-You seem hung up on Bob Strand who is he ???

Curses,foiled again.
Besides, it just pushes us both towards excellence, right? We're actually quite good for each other. Well, I probably should say you're good for me, I shouldn't assume it's reciprocal. But that's what the whole deal is about...swimming well, achieving goals, trying out new techniques, new methods...:blah:

Now you're catching on . . .
Bob Strand is being inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame as a Masters Swimmer.I am chasing(and not catching (YET:censor:) his WRs) and too often chasing his heels.
Keith Bell left USMS to form his own Swimming Association

I am planning on attending but I bring my own stash of "beverages". Don't tell the Smith's. They'll be concerned I'm juicing.
Allen and Jim,
I love to watch you "plot" against each other! Talk about friendly rivalry. Nice to see.
BTW Jim, Pat has lots of guns if things ever get ugly! :lmao:
