I think there should be more swimming events. Freestyle diving board stuff, like the cannonball and jackknife. Another where every Olympic swimmer goes into the pool and they have to tread water for as long as they can. It could be an all-day event shown in PIP. Make them do the Swimming (Lifesaving?) merit badge requirement where you have to jump in the pool fully clothed and make a lifejacket out of your pants.

Let's axe all the stupid sports like ping pong and badminton because the chinese are too dominant. I'm really beginning to HATE the Olympic$ "bowel" movement. |

Ever notice how TD always is looking for a new band wagon to jump on. The guy hates underdogs.

I can remember it like it was yesterday. It's hard to put this accomplishment into perspective, but you will have to trust me. |

Spitz was so good that he swam without a cap, AND sported a mustache.
