USA Swimming has 99 swimmers on the National Team. They should have a team of content creators making an absurd amount of content telling these young people's stories.
Jordan Crooks, btw, was outstanding this weekend. Will he be the 2nd human to break 18?

I grew up in a military family. My Dad served 29 and a half years in the Coast Guard. His Dad served on the USS North Carolina during WW2.
You know those hats you see a lot of vets wearing? I love seeing an old guy in a restaurant wearing a hat like that.

When you are sitting around the Thanksgiving table this week, don't forget to thank your family or friends for their service, past or present.
