I agree with you, Tom. LCM swimming is different and the Olympics are LCM, so cuts should be. However, I only remember going after LCM cuts back in college, but maybe that's because the focus was on NCAA cuts during SCY season. For how long has it only been LCM cuts? I thought it was that way all along?
Well, I'm also in the never made OT's boat. I understand the reasoning of having the cuts only in LCM, but it's still painful when the cut would have been right around my yards time. As much as I enjoy my club team over the summer, the teammate talent level and practices just weren't the same as college. To make matters worse, they made the 200 fly cut slower in 2008 and 2012 by almost a full second. It's almost like they're begging me to quit my job and try to get it again :)
