Agreed. I also wish the NCAA would take the lead on this and host another championship in this format like they did a few years back.
I think that college meets should really be LCM. In a perfect world, all swimming would be done in LCM. Seriously, we really need to move away from yards. At least, have all spring championships in SCM whether it is college, masters, age group, and high school swimming. USA really needs to get with the times in meters swimming. USMS is on the right back with their mainly SCM meets in the fall. :applaud:
Not if you understand some of the reasoning behind what he said...
And everyone knows I don't have a sense of humor...except of course when it comes to Geek and his chicken legs.
Uh, why is it exactly that you think this reasoning somehow escaped me?
I grant you that Geek's chicken legs are rather startling to behold ...

Chicken legs to you and the Desert Dope, muscled steel pipes of speed to those that run with me, sort of anyway.
As an aside, Rowdy's latest comment: the stroke 50s are "worthless", except the 50 free: "I really like that 50".
Yeah. I mentioned that in another thread. It makes me kinda sick that Rowdy is at NBC while Garrett (infinitely better) looks for a job.
Uh, why is it exactly that you think this reasoning somehow escaped me?
Hmmmm, let me think about that. Oh yeah, you and Jazz's calling Rowdy an idiot maybe?
Hey Mr. Muscled Steel Pipes...you gonna pony up the $100 for that 50 back and show us they actually work?
Hmmmm, let me think about that. Oh yeah, you and Jazz's calling Rowdy an idiot maybe?
Bah, circular reasoning on your part. I obviously knew all Rowdy's unspoken "reasoning" -- this is not secret knowledge shared only by elite beer drinkers! That doesn't make the 50s at Worlds "worthless" or the 50 free the only "good" 50.
And commentators like Andrea and Rowdy are fair game for criticism. Perhaps not so nice to criticize the swimming abilities of forumites like Jazz though.

Sure, but then afterward we wager $100 on a 5K running race, to even the odds after you crush me in the pool.
I have met Rowdy a number of times and don't think he's an idiot. Being the Sargent at Arms for Team Blue Frog I cannot let such an insult stand.

Criticsim is one thing, a personal insult/attack by you and Jazz (an idiot??) to a friend of mine another.
