The comments in the "PB vs. winning" thread gave me the idea for this poll...

  • No offense to Jeff, but he could get all the competition he wants by swimming USS meets. For the rest of us, at nationals at least, there is enough competition within each age group that it makes sense to swim against only the people you're competing with for medals/ribbons. At regional meets, where there may only be 3-5 people in a given age group, seeding by time makes more sense.
