July 28, 2010 I mean, the production LOOKS nice. But the writing in this thing is absolutely BRUTAL.
Also, how can you give career improvement to Annie Chandler? I mean, this girl was the best HS breaststroker in the country....as a Sophomore. I mean, she's definitely a great swimmer, and finished her career in an awesome way. But does going from the best HS breaststroker in the nation to the best college breaststroker in the nation really indicate an extraordinary level of improvement? Submitted by: GigEmAggies
