Why does it appear many masters swimmers are taking USMS so seriously?
What's the difference between the typical "selfish train all day", "it's all about me" triathlete and a masters swimmer who seriously trains as hard as they can.... particularly to focus on setting masters records?
Seems like there is a growing parallel between triathletes and many masters swimmers these days.
Isn't it just "masters swimming" for health and fun in the end?
Does a masters record really mean that much?
Is this a good thing? ..... or a turn off for those who look on with amusement.
In any event, please check back later to see the photo, that is, if it can clear legal and stave off any last minute stays by Scallia, Roberts, and other close personal ideaological cronies of "Negative Buffalo." (Sorry for the in-house slang here. The staff at forums.usms.org/blog.php has begun referring to Mr. Negative and White Buffalo simply as Negative Buffalo, kind of like "Brangelina" or "Bennifer"--a linguistic merging, if you will, of dewy-eyed sex partners whose mutual admiration of corporal superiority leads to a fusion of body and soul of which we little people simply cannot get enough vicarious news.)
Jim, I hate to intervene in what has clearly become a passionate screed (if not outright obsession) for you, but "Negative Buffalo" seems a little wordy still, somehow not tripping off the tongue quite as easily as the cited examples of mash-up names of the allegedly corporeally superior Beautiful Couples.
Might I suggest Neguffalo? Or Buffaneg?
