CUTS
Are they going to leave a swimmer off the Pan Pac team who posted a time ranked 5th in the world this year (tied with Cullen, obviously) over what appears to be an assistant coach's mistake that led to a violation of an administrative rule?
I'm not in the "rules are rules" camp on this one. It's not like he slowed down the meet or prevented another swimmer from swimming by missing the 100fly. The letter of the law was violated, but in the spirit of the law, I don't see where the harm was done.
Josh should have dotted his Ps and Qs before he missed his event that he signed up. He is a grown a** man for Pete's sake. Also, you sound like Lindsay Lohan's lawyer with this "spirit of the law" stuff. Anyway, they have been many highly ranked swimmers in the past who violated rules and thus, they didn't make the National teams for Worlds, Olympics, etc. Why should this guy get better treatment than previous swimmers?
