Rowdy Gaines just wont shut up!!! During the prelims of the 200 IM Gaines was still saying how all these races are probably taking a toll on Phelps. Gaines still doubts that Phelps can win 8. Im not guaranteeing that Phelps will win the 8 golds, but give me a better argument than, he's not prepared or getting tired!! So, here are my issues with this...
- This is the same person that said there is no way that the US could come back during the relay.
- This is the same person that thought Phelps was frustrated at how "hard the 200 fly hurt him" when in actuality he had water in his goggles.
- Giving advice on how Phelps should be swimming his races.
His ridiculous analysis isn't contained just to Phelps. He had moronic, insignificant, call outs about Aaron Peirsol and Natalie Coughlin as well. I notice he hasn't had much to say about Katie Hoff though.
If anyone knows how to contact NBC , let me know!!!
Im not one to say I told you so, but I think Rowdy needs help. Perhaps the Sportshag should be in the booth to be the voice of reason and the drama meter...since Im clearly more in tune to whats really happening.
Phelps verified that he swam the final of the 200 butterfly blind. On th start, Phelps goggles filled with water and he said that he could hardly see.
Hey Rowdy, youre such a drama queen. What the hell are you gonna do when those daughters of yours start dating? Youre gonna end up pulling those last two hairs out of your head.
I have always been a fan of Rowdy Gaines commentary of swimming events. Im not sure what his problem is but he is soooooooooo negative!!!! During the prelims of the mens 400 IM he was knocking Michael Phelps for swimming too hard and wasting energy, saying Phelps may pull out a 4:05 in the final. Instead, Phelps blew everyone out of the water and awent 4:03 and some change. Now, he's all over Brendan Hanson saying that he's not having a good meet. Um, last time U checked, the only time that matters is the one in the finals. Previously Gaines has seemed like an encyclopedia of swimming but it almost seems like he has lost his grip. I understand that when he competed, 24 YEARS AGO, that things were different and he seemed to be keeping up. Now, however, I would say that he's lost his edge and ability to understand what a toll a prelim, semi, and final schedule can take both physically and mentally. As a result, new tatics and strategies are taken. Hey Rowdy, lighten up!!! It's only the first day and we have 4 medals already! Jack Ass!!
