One of the biggest jobs in college swimming is now vacant and Kosuke Kitajima is racing Michael Phelps. All that, in the same time it took Aaron Peirsol to swim a 200 back.

Great to see you back Garrett and on a terrific site too!
Any chance you will be doing coverage of the TYR/Fran Crippen meet at Mission in a couple of weeks?
I won’t be at the meet, but if there’s some fast swimming I’m sure The Machine will be covering it.
BIGGUY, anyone who knows swimming knows and loves Garrett from his days at flo. That’s when I became a fan. Garrett’s an asset to the sport. Well said.
Jeff Commings is a great guy and knows alot about swimming, but anyone who could confuse his reporting or on camera skills with Garrett is delusional. (Sorry Jeff). As to ripoffs, Swimming World tried to ripoff the Floswimming format that Garrett made so popular, including hiring Garrett. Only an old media mindset (magazine) could fumble with such a new media (internet) talent like Garrett.

It appears to me that SwimSwam has a crisp new internet friendly format, with all of the right players in the right seats on the bus. If they keep it… Read more »
All it needs now is to get some funding to get Garrett to London …although I would settle for Omaha.
Incidentally, I think it’d be very convenient (if possible) for Garrett to reupload his old WWW’s onto this site.
I thought I was watching Jeff Commings; another format ripoff of Swimming World.
With 9.8 seconds to spare!
