So Germany's Paul Biedermann swam a 1:39 200 m free

Will we be as in awe as we are now next year when NO records are broken ?? We have been through this discussion before -- I think it's pretty obvious - swim fans will continue to watch. Sport fans will stop paying attention - how many people watched Usain Bolt this summer compared to the 400 dash winner ? I don't even know who won any other running events at the track world's. The record run would slow down next year even with the suits, without the suits, we will just come to a stand still.
