Really interesting article re: the cost for college teams to try and stay even w/other teams that can afford to supply their swimmers w/the new suits.

    OMG! I haven't even finished reading the article, but I can't believe that it boldly states that the LZR/ B70/ TYR Tracer help the "LAZY, FLABBY" swimmers MOST b/c their fat is compressed but remains more buoyant than muscle!!! I have to wonder why Auburn waited until the last minute to order their suits. Even I, as a low level swimmer, have some back up. However, I also see this as being a possible media ploy to psych out the other teams. . . If they keep the suits, fine. If they ditch 'em, fine by me as well.
