Does anyone remember there were two that were hit? I guess no love for the other guy from swim swam. Prayers and thoughts to BOTH of them
This might be the most bizarre “no love” comment we’ve ever received. And we receive a lot of them.
No picture? I think everyone is curious as to how bad it was considering he got shot what? like 5 months ago and already pops off a time that would likely win NCAAS this year.
It’s going to take a sub 1.49 to win this year.
not in the 100 boi
I hope it takes sub 1:49 to win the 100…
Good luck Max! Stay strong, you’re doing great.
Haha, get a tattoo that says “BAD A$$” without the symbols right on top of the wound, with NCAA CHAMP going through it like a crossword puzzle. That is if he wins… if not… just stick with the first part.
He has a great shot at winning the 200 breast at NCAAs.
and the 100!
I see what you did there
It’s only December, let’s not jump the gun with these predictions.
Less of a prediction than a pun.
Now lets not go off half cocked!
Hes going to really have to put the hammer down
