10 Thoughts That Cross the Mind While Watching the United States Olympic Trials<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the cool things about the United States Olympic Trials is the way it brings the swimming community together. Fans, athletes, parents and coaches have the opportunity to watch the festivities from Omaha on nightly television, thanks to NBC\u2019s broadcast partnership with USA Swimming.<\/p>\n

Naturally, when watching what is unfolding at the CHI Health Center, certain thoughts cross the mind. Here are 10 things that pop into the brain while taking in the Olympic Trials.<\/p>\n

1. “Psh, I could do that. It\u2019s not that hard…Yeah, I definitely could never do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. \u201cDo I know them? I recognize that name. I think I might have raced against them when we were younger.\u201d<\/p>\n

3. \u201cThis is kind of sad without Michael Phelps<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

4. \u201cGO GO GO! Wait, is this a final or a semifinal?\u201d<\/p>\n

5. \u201cWhat event is next? This order of events doesn\u2019t make any sense!\u201d<\/p>\n

6. \u201cOh, I like that suit. What brand is it? I might need to invest in that one.\u201d<\/p>\n

7. \u201cGO GO GO! Bring it home! Who should I be rooting for in this race? There are just so many good options.\u201d<\/p>\n

8. Sees that Trials is being viewed on the main TV platform. \u201cWow, it\u2019s an historic day. There are actually people out there who care about swimming.\u201d<\/p>\n

9. \u201cWhy isn\u2019t anyone yelling at them for sitting on the lane lines?\u201d<\/p>\n

10. \u201cOh, Team USA is definitely bringing home the gold in Tokyo<\/a> every event!\u201d<\/p>\n
