sportsillustrated.cnn.com/.../index.html From the man whose WR has been broken four times in the last two months..... I like his attitude. He could never be a USMS swimmer. Too much whining here about everything.

    On this subject of advances in mechanized swimming, I wonder when Speedo, Nike, Tyr, etc. are going to come up with a suit that in addition to reducing drag, offers more propulsion? :rofl: They should add gloves and socks to their fully body suit so your hands and feet are like a duck's web feet. That would really shave a lot off your times!!! The suit makers could say the additioanal covering is not meant to acts as fins, but just an extension of the suit itself and it is designed to reduce drag from the exposed fingers and toes. Considering that FINA is beholden to the suit manufacturers, it's a sure bet they would say this is also legal. Just an idea for what ever it’s worth. :bump: Dolphin 2 :rolleyes:
