That's Right, the Kid talks about Swimming too.

So there is a big controversy in the world of swimming. Seems these new swimsuits are covered in poly-urethane and it makes swimmers go faster, or something. Honestly, the science of it all is kind of lost on me. But the main point here is that these suits give swimmers that wear them a competitive advantage. Obviously, this is not fair. There is only one solution to this whole issue- nude swimming. Would it offend the censors, probably. Would it hurt swimming's TV ratings, probably not. It may have to be on HBO, but I bet more people would watch it. It is the only way to ensure that the best swimmers win because of talent, not because of technology. OK, I suppose if you made it so that only one suit was approved by the international swimming board, then that would be fair too. But far less interesting.
