heywoodu 13,540 Posted October 21, 2019 #72 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Yesterday at the airport I saw Brazilian TV was showing swimming, but I didn't see what it was. Anyone any clue? It looked American or something but I couldn't see any names. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I remember seeing at least NYB and LAC in the results, which I now see must be LA Current and New York Breakers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_International_Swimming_League If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Yeah I think Honnzu and a few other big names sued FINA and won easily (definitely spelled that wrong) “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
