Duel in the Pool or Slaughter in the Water
The title comes from Eric Shanteau's tweet, and it hits the nail on the head.
I was pumped to see the US v E-star showdown. After seeing the official results, however, the match-up doesn't mean much. I'm excited to see the races (on NBC next week), but only because I'm swim-geek.
And why is it "Speedo" has the only teaser video (posted above)? Could someone please send me a cool clip......
Just subscribed to OtterSwim. Great blog!

Yeah somebody messed up. They didn't start inviting swimmers like Cseh, who wanted to come, until Pellegrin, Steffen, Biederman dropped out. By then it was too late.
