    Michael Phelps, Rowdy Gaines, and Ryan Lochte (sort of) recently called out USA Swimming during the World Championships. While it may have initially seemed like the criticism was aimed at the athletes, it’s clear now that wasn’t the case.

    With USA Swimming still without a permanent CEO after more than 340 days, the community’s patience is understandably wearing thin. In this video, I share my thoughts on the callout and what I believe we should be focusing on as we head into the LA 2028 Olympic cycle.

    While the Baltimore Ravens gear up for their preseason opener next week, some players are taking to the new recovery pool at The Castle. But there appears to be a little problem, and some players are calling on a local legend for help. In a social media video, the players seek Michael Phelps — who is a huge Ravens fan — to teach them how to swim. The 23-time Olympic gold medalist Maryland swimming phenom responded to that request Wednesday on Instagram, writing, “I got y’all! Let’s do it.”
