OPINION: If College Swimming dual meets actually had an impact on the success of a season for a team, there would an immediate and drastic increase in the marketability of the sport as a whole.

We can pretend dual meets are "exciting" all we want, and sure some of them now have bells and whistles that have shown what's possible, but until there is something on the line they will continue to be money lit on fire.

We need wins and losses.
We need rankings to mean something.
We need change.

A seven month season with a few 5 day prelim / final champinoships meets jammed at the end of it isn't attractive to networks. Bottom line.

KIRBY SMART ON BEING GREAT

"There's one way. The right way. The hard way. There are no shortcuts.

At 7:30 when the alarm goes off ... if you wanna be a really good player, you're gonna get up and go to class.

You've gotta do something that somebody else isn't willing to do."

The #606 singing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl is damn cool

[Joe Pompliano @JoePompliano]

The NFL has spent two years preparing the grass for tonight's field at the Super Bowl.

The grass was grown at a local sod farm in Phoenix.

It was installed two weeks ago, and the field has been rolled out each morning for daily sunshine.

Total cost = $800,000

PLAYERS: Mental toughness doesn't mean you're more talented than someone else. It usually just means you can be more consistent & resilient than someone else. This is a great way to differentiate yourself and gain an edge. It helps you go from average-to-good or good-to-great.

[🏴‍☠️ TheRaiderMan XL 🏴‍☠️ @TheRaiderDSimms]

Rumor on here was that Carr went rogue vs Seahawks. Changing plays to get the win. So I went and watch the ot highlights. Why was Josh upset after the 86yard walkoff by JJ28? Everybody else was celebrating.

[Braden Keith @Braden_Keith]

I understand that swimming people, especially of a certain generation, LOVE black-and-white rules. They drool at the thought of them.

But if a black-and-white rule isn't called until the last race of the last meet of the season, is it a good rule? #swimming

In 1965, the A’s sign 59-year-old Satchel Paige as a gimmick to generate fan interest. Nobody informs Ol’ Satch it’s a joke, however, and he proceeds to just fucking shut out the Red Sox for three innings.

[Hunter Price @CoachHPrice]

Spouses of coaches are a different breed. They hold down the fort while we’re physically and mentally gone for months. They deal with our attitudes when we lose and come home with a roller coaster of emotions. And don’t really reap financial benefits of it either 😅
