Let's go back to the old ways

That's it, all you ancient swim romantics have convinced me. We need to ban the new suits and require everyone to wear the same type (not brand). We just have to decide which is the 'right' model. I submit that you revisionist dogs who think that briefs are it don't know much about swimming history. I'm attaching a photo of Duke Kahanamoku with this message to show you what the competition swimwear was like in the first part of the 20th century. Clearly men were men here and could be one with the water. The suit certainly never helped or hindered and one could feel every molecule of water swirling by during the swim. Ah, those were the days. Who do we have to thank for the loss of such elegant swimwear used by the Duke? Was it Adolph Kiefer? Who introduced the horrible brief innovation into the sport? Whoever it was, they should be removed from the Hall of Fame, stricken from all records, and never spoken of again!

    The current winner of the LGBTTOW Award is SS for pretending to do a bike ride on a 40 pound bike. Did you have to walk that baby up those tough 1% grades? Man, a 30 mile ride on that thing would expend more calories than I use up in an entire bike season. I'm going to see who swims in two pairs of shredded training briefs at Nationals to look for a better performance than that, Rich!
