Since the SwimSwam comments from major shows are always iconic, I decided to welcome some of my favorite *civilized, PG-13* comments from the 2023 Women’s and Men’s NCAA Championships live recap articles. So, without further ado, let’s get started.
The unrealistic relay Attraction
If we turn the Olympics into short course yards, will the Americans finally beat the Australians in the women’s 4×100 free relay and advance with a $1 million check?
Kate Douglass saves everything
Can Kate Douglass join me for my Calculus exam tomorrow while she swims the 200 breaststroke? She seems to swim the breaststroke better than anyone else in life.
Thanks for the shoutout!!
I can throw flowers at myself, right? Also, I told you all that Kate Douglass has a 1:48 in her, and I was right.
Golden MacNeil
Power Move will not lie.
So overwhelming
All this hype about 49s in the 100 fly and what for??? Smh I can’t believe we saw three 48’s instead!! Such a disappointment.
Swim inflation is real
So 49.3/56.7/48.9/47.2 are considered slow these days right?
The Republic of Virginia
The Australians are shaking in their boots right now.
Kenzie McMahon Appreciation Post
People with “Mc-” in their name always have the best nicknames. So many things to choose from.
Subtle flex
What’s more impressive for Braden? Be EIC from SwimSwam or coach THE Emma Sticklen?
No comment on this
You know who you are…
Creepy Marchand
💀
He did this RESTLESSLY!
Watch Leon go bald at worlds then break 4 minutes in the 400 IM.
Nepo Baby Dressel
If the Dressel family really does feel threatened by Jordan Crooks, should we take that as a sign?
Marchand breaks SwimSwam
We love 503s!!!
March in March
I gave this one a shoutout on Twitter, so I’ll do the same here.
Insane Cleavage
22 points would be an incredible backsplit from 50 and then there’s Leon Marchand doing it like WHAT in 200 IM
Again no comment
Brendan burns the GOAT
Brendan Burns told me on Twitter that it’s made of dark matter and I believe it. He deducts double after double.
Ramadan Interview >>>>>>>
In my opinion bad interviews are sometimes the product of bad questions (I’m not talking about Beisel, I’m talking about those people who only ask swimmers how it feels to go to the Olympics or something and nothing deeper), but Ramadan knocked this one out of the park.
lol
I heard that too and was like, “Uhhh, what’s he saying?”
New Jersey >>>>>
Fun Fact: I saw Jack Alexy swim against my high school in a dual meet three years ago. I don’t remember exactly what happened, but I’m sure he lapped a lot of people.
Brooks Crooks
This is for you, Ben!
Josh Liendo is the real deal
I don’t really have anything to say about this comment, I just wanted to give another credit to his 40.28.
