I know, I know. I suck. That’s already been established many a time ’round here. Ask anyone.
Here’s the Jason Lezak video from his interview on the Ellen Degeneres Show back in September. I just know I capped it, but I can’t find it for the life of me! But, in my defense, I have over 300 GB of captured video from my TV card, so things sometimes get lost. It just sucks that it was Jason’s interview because he almost never gets tv airtime.
I’d apologize for the quality, but #1, it’s not my video (I found it on YouTube) and #2, any video is better than none, right? So enjoy!
I’ll have you all know that I do still have the Tara “What Not To Wear” video, and I know where it is! It’ll just take a little more effort to cut out the commercials because I have the attention span of a flea.
Remember, way back when, when Miss Tara Kirk was on TLC’s “What Not To Wear”? Remember?
Do you also remember that I promised a video? I just remembered myself!
So, I’m scouring my hard drive looking for it. I capped it with my trusty Win TV PVR (Basically, it’s TIVO for a computer), so it’s around here somewhere. I think I owe y’all a video of Lezak on Ellen’s show as well. Right?
I’ll get on that ASAP! Not like I’m doing anything lately except figuring out how to run outdoors without ever being cold.
BTW, I really hope no one’s been emailing us via the contact form. You’d be better served making a comment on a post or something. I suck at life and have not even logged in there since BEFORE Trials. So yea. Any lack of a reply isn’t me being a douchebag, just really really really really lazy. My bad!
We know you think you’re always right, but you’re not.
You know good and well that our Olympic Trials should be in March or April and not July. In fact, all of the team trials for internation competitions should be months in advance, not weeks. Think about the selection meets for the 2007 World Champs, Pan Ams, and WUGs. Those were done properly.
You really ought to work on this. Do the right thing and tell NBC to kiss your ass while you’re at it.
So, as I was watching Sportscenter today while I was “babysitting” my cousin and they did a little segment with the PTI guys about Olympic Spirit. First of all, I disagree with them and their stance on how “after the second day of hearing 13-hour old news, no one will care.” People will care. Some may cheat and find out the results ahead of time, but people care. And second of all, Michael Phelps won 6 gold in ATHENS, not SYDNEY. I know, it’s a slip of the tongue, but still…
There won’t be any threats or lawsuits coming from NIKE with regards to their signed swimmers testing the waters with the Speedo LZR. Maybe, just maybe, they think it’s bad for business? Who knows.
But what we do know is that NIKE hasn’t created a suit in line with TYR’s Tracer Rise or Speedo’s LZR Racer and it looks like they are openly acknowledging that fact. I will say that I was feelin’ their suits with the white band from a purely visual standpoint. That black/white combo is hot to me, just ask any of the Swim Aids!
We’d been hearing that some of Team Nike has already been rockin’ the Speedo, with logo blacked out, so this doesn’t really come as that much of a surprise. (Forgot where I read that, though)
I’m just glad there will be no additional drama for Trials. These athletes don’t need to be worrying about things like that when there’s so much on the line. Kudos to Nike for doing the right thing.
This was sent to me by the show’s publicity team, so I feel it only right to share. US Swimming legend Janet Evans is participating. Why should you care? Well, it’s not every day we see one of our beloved gold medalists appearing weekly on network TV, now is it?
Celebrity Circus” is an exciting new series that immerses today’s top stars in the breathtaking world of the circus and cirque. Antonio Sabato Jr., Blu Cantrell, Christopher Knight, Janet Evans, Jason “Wee Man” Acuna, Rachel Hunter and Stacey Dash will attempt death-defying stunts in a head-to-head competition in front of a live studio audience. Each week viewers at home will cast their votes for the best acts and determine which of the celebrities is going home. Hosted by former *NSYNC member and Emmy Red Carpet host Joey Fatone, “Celebrity Circus” brings the incredible world of the Big Top into America’s living rooms, beginning with a special 90 minute premiere on Wednesday, June 11 at 9:30 P.M. ET.
This link was sent to me by Erik’s reps. They set up a cafepress shop to sell items such as t-shirts, hats, and buttons in an attempt to raise money for Erik’s impending legal fees. It must be frustrating to have distractions like this so close to Trials, but Erik is making the best of the situation and trying to concentrate on his swimming. Did you see his meet record 1500 Free swim from Thursday?
