No wonder you are so proud ...
Correction: Temporary home to a great swimmer. Phelps and his coach are returning to their hometown of Baltimore and will have their own aquatic training and coaching facility. Coach Bowman has been the swim coach at UM for the past 4 years.
Sharky, I stand corrected on one point from my previous post upthread... :) My apologies, apparently Phelps was enrolled as a student but wasn't on the UM swim team.
-snip- "Phelps is no dummy though, the Olympic swimmer does not count solely on his good looks, incredible talent or amazing endorsements – he has a backup plan. Phelps enrolled at the University of Michigan soon after his coach Bob Bowman took a job as the varsity swim coach at the university. Not wanting to swim for anyone else, Phelps enrolled and served as Bowman’s assistant coach for the swim team.Because of Phelps' endorsement deals with Speedo, Omega, Visa and PowerBar, he was forced to forfeit his right to swim for the varsity team because he was not considered an amateur. Phelps kept busy on the campus majoring in Sports Marketing and Managing and helping Bowman coach the team."
Dang. And here I thought you had liked those little homes that came with the Leggo sets. Or were you referring to the 30% drop in the Floriduh housing market the past year?
that can't win the big one
Tsk, tsk, you underrate the SEC so much, I guess it's only a big one when you guys find a patsy to win against.......since you can't seem to ever beat Michigan.....
Back to you, and your hot, flat, ugly, blue haired and stormy state cheerleading efforts......
