    NCAA Swimming just got it right

    I have no problem with such an action either.

    However, when I pull up the story, contradictory versions emerge - some stating claims of revocation are satire. This one is worth keeping an eye on.

    I am disappointed to learn that this is a fake story.

    Back in the ancient daze.. I was in my 40s and recovering from my first knee surgery.. was religiously working out on a rowing machine at the health club.. gym toadie watched me for a minute and then commented that my times were national competition times, he had just read about them.. later I stop by the desk and read the article containing my great times..

    My 40 year old crippled azz is competitive with woman over 70.. I didn’t brag about it..
