  Dana Vollmer has another good 100Fly swim. She went 56.25 in prelimes to go under the OR, then a 56.36 in semi-finals (under the WR mark by quite a bit at 50 then turned it off in the last 25 as she had a big lead). There is a good chance she'll grab that WR in the finals of this event.

  Worst part about the on-line feed is I'm having to close out and restart it every few minutes or it starts lagging up real bad. I wish they'd just put it on one of the channels live.

  With as many channels as NBCUniversal owns, it really is inexcusable.
