2009 National Championships (World Championship Trials)

think it's interesting that all 100 breastrokers in the A final wore full body suits www.swimnetwork.com/.../nationals_men_s_100_breast_a_final-16785.html 1 burkle not sure 2 arena titus 3 jaked gangloff 4 arena shanteau 5 arena spann 6 jaked lowe 7 jaked klein 8 jaked lovelace

Also interesting--no lzrs.

Thanks Jeff. This will give some of the younger guys a chance to step it up!

Piersol breaks 52!!!!!!!! That was an awesome swim!! 51.94. Whooooooo!

She probably dogged the last 50. On her worst day, she should be under 2:00. Maybe too much lifting too soon. She goes through alot of ups and downs. She was up at 2007 Worlds and 200 Trials but then kind of down at Beijing. Today, she is what you call a super hot mess!!!

Piersol breaks 52!!!!!!!! That was an awesome swim!! 51.94. Whooooooo! Double that. Nicely distanced himself, too, from the dude who just broke his old world record.

Good job Tyler Clary. I thought that he was more of backstroker. The 200 back will be setting up to be a bloodbath. I respect Gaines comment, "Life isn't far", regarding the suits. Swimming is a sport about the haves, not the have nots. The "have nots" make due with what resources they have available and hope to be discovered by a coach who will take them to the promised land of swimming.

Nice 100 ***, Mr. Gangloff! 59.01 This is convenient. I can watch the live video in one window, and in the meantime, the traffic school in the other window won't bore me stupid. why is it such a surprising mystery to these commentators that Katie Hoff is disappointing? She had a respiratory virus a few weeks ago, for crying out loud. Good job, Chloe Sutton. That was fun to watch. .water C'mon, Brennan! Notice how flat Gangloffs BR was.His head was much lower in the water while breathing than the others and I believe lower than he was last year.Very impressive.

Since the suit will almost certainly not be legal after 01-01-10, that would be $500+ for a one meet suit. That's probably OTT... even for Pablo... I will stick with my trusty B70, though I would love to try a Jaked. If only they'd have a booth in Indy for USMS Nat's... Isn't the Jaked about $650?(I'm not sure of the Euro/$ conversion.)
