Former NFL player's opinion of swimming: deadspin.com/.../id-rather-go-through-nfl-two a days-or-make-myself-puke-in-the-pool-than-do-what-michael-phelps-does Great article. Growing up in San Jose (and swimming at SJA for a couple years), I remember the foggy/steamy mornings at Gunderson HS very well. And Cabana League swimming!

"Swim practice is all inner monologue" That was actually really good! I bet he was a sprinter. :bolt: Nate Jackson is on local radio here in Denver metro from time to time. He's usually pretty articulate and entertaining.

Blatant cheating! They should be DQ'd, no question about it.
