Olympic Swimming

[goingtothewhip]

Swimming and waterpolo are really the only things I'm looking forward to watching. Although you wouldn't know anyone else was swimming besides Phelps and Amanda Beard from the promo's. I thought the Amanda Beard "promo's" were very tastefully done for the record.

In re: to USA waterpolo- Tony Azevedo (of Long Beach Wilson and Stanford) is arguably one of the (or the) best waterpolo players in the world. First player from the US to sign a million dollar contract to play professionally.... doing so with a club in Italy. That's insane considering the end game for an elite waterpolo player in the US is getting a partial scholarship to Stanford, USC, CAL, UCLA, etc... Getting a full scholarship means that you are probably under consideration for the national team and have been playing internationally with the junior-national team while in highschool.

USA v Serbia is on NBC wed morning and i think is the first US game televised. If you assumed the Serbians play dirty, you were correct.
