The “dead period” of the swimming world is coming to a close and around here, and we Swim Aids couldn’t be more thrilled! No seriously!

The college season is beginning and look for us to discuss it a LOT this year. Especially with our never-ending support for the boys up in Ann Arbor. They are gonna tear shit up this year. You just wait!

Kiwi’s gonna be all over the place where Stanford is concerned, starting with this weekend’s Alumni meet. Carrie’s going to show us how her school represents for the Summit League (formerly known as the Mid-Continent Conference). And I’m going to continue my love affair with OSU’s McCorkle Aquatic Pavillion. I don’t really care who is actually competing. I’ll cover it just because of that amazing facility. We’re going to think of other things for the rest of the Swim Aids to do. Three of them are in Texas, so we’re likely going to make them stalk the Longhorns whenever/wherever possible. You know how it is.

The Golden Goggle nominations are going to be coming out within the next week. No doubt we’ll have fun with those, as well as the event itself. Should get some of our random questions answered without having to ask ourselves. *cough*

The 2007-08 World Cup Circuit is about to kick into gear too. Although I missed it not being around last year, it’s not like any of us could have seen any of the meets. The US gave up its rights to host a stop after the 2006 competition in New York. Bummer.

Then a couple of us are looking forward (hopefully) to a trip to Hotlanta for the inaugural Short Course Nationals.

See? It’ll all be better soon! Of course, I don’t know if swimming will be able to successfully steal me back from this year’s football insanity. It’s got me in on lockdown!
