As many of you might have guessed, I am a huge proponent of open water swimming and open water events.
American Swimming Association, Austin, TX, recently hosted their 9th Annual Lake Travis Relays. Can it really be the ninth swim already? Time flies...

bob - you make this whole affair sound so personal.
Please don't get me wrong. I am angry, but I am also not all amused by USADA and their tactics to nail armstrong... to nail bonds... to nail clemens. Our law enforcement agencies should not behave like mobsters to nail mafioso. They should be above this behavior.
I love Sean Connery's line in the Untouchables, but that is the sort of g-men that would scare the crap out of me.
Should we think of USADA findings simply as Lance was the best cheater among a population of cheaters? What does this mean for the sport of cycling and the Tour de France? Is the indignation demonstrated by piers morgan, michael wilbon and others an act? don't all of us love a good scandal? don't all of us love to see the success story crater into james frey's a million little pieces? Should any of us care?
