Swimmers might have to choose between sponsor or faster SpeedoMANCHESTER, England -- Speedo's record-breaking suit has been backed twice in one week by the sport's governing body, leaving swimmers with tough choices.Enter the pool in Beijing in four months with a swimsuit that might lead to slower times, or break with a long-standing sponsor to go for Olympic gold in Speedo's LZR Racer?"I'm going to wear the Speedo at the Olympics," South Africa captain Gerhard Zandberg told The Associated Press on Saturday at the short-course world championships. "I'm not going to sacrifice performance."Zandberg, who is sponsored by Arena, acknowledges he'll be fined $4,750, but said Olympic gold is worth much more.The International Swimming Federation (FINA) met with manufacturers on Saturday with the stated intent to review future approval of new suits. It turned into a debate about the suit that has taken over the record books in less than two months.There have been 19 long-course world marks set since Speedo's LZR Racer suit was introduced in February. Twelve additional world marks have been established through three days at these championships. All but one of the records have come with swimmers wearing the LZR.Zandberg wore an Arena suit when he set a personal best in the 50-meter breaststroke semifinals Saturday. He will continue to wear Arena if the Italian manufacturer produces a suit comparable to Speedo's.Filippo Magnini, the two-time world champion in the 100 freestyle, is one of the top swimmers sponsored by Arena. He tested a new Arena prototype suit Saturday and may use it in the 100 final Sunday."The [Speedo] helps a lot," he said. "We've got to get something similar. We all have to have the same conditions, and if FINA doesn't [regulate] it, the athletes will do it ourselves."More
Ok Ok I'll be the first to admit it .... my eyes lingered upon his package maybe a teensy weensy longer than appropriate.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

On a somewhat series note .. this may well be the event that draws some Olympic viewers back to their TV's. I've always enjoyed the Olympics, especially the summer games.
