Pure class says it all.<BR/><BR/>That photo shows a smiling Brendan after a disappointing swim. How many people could do that??<BR/><BR/>Brendan is the kind of guy every parent wishes they could have as a son. Congrats to Brendan for his class and to Mr. and Mrs. H for their job in raising their kids!<BR/><BR/>Brendan, have a great relay!

One funny story: I said it before the final if brendan wins, I get it in the morning then to the driving licence one of my exams. Dawn I looked at the final at the time of four, I sat an examination in driving at the time of eight in the morning. You were not the first, me I failed, but even I am not sad :)because of it, not be sad BRENDAN!:)<BR/><BR/>Love you Bren! I'm proud of you! You can be

I was my usual typo self above.. Brendan's time was 59.57. Which is better than what I quoted.<BR/><BR/>I apologize.

For what is worth, you're still #1 on my list, pumpkin. <BR/><BR/>And there might be a lot of good swimmers out there, but you are a true pure class athlete, with everything that means.<BR/><BR/>Just remember, we will always have the relay, so go out there and shine! We'll be here, cheering for you.

I feel for Brendan in that I know this wasn't the result he wanted, yet he is still, and always will be, my favorite athlete. He is a class act and a wonderful person, and I'm so proud to be a fan. Can't wait to see you swim the relay Brendan!

Though it's not the result any of us wanted, I'm so proud of Brendan. He really is such a class act and he showed it last night (this morning? this time difference is confusing me...). Can't wait for the relay!

Brendan is such a gentleman and fighter. I'm so glad when he said he's not go out like this. Go Brendan!

I also have been impressed with Brendan's class and composure these last few weeks. In addition to being an awesome swimmer he has is also proved himself to be a stellar person. :) I agree Lala, I can't wait to see the relay, and I look forward to continue watching Brendan swim in the future!

I'm sure Brendan isn't happy with the result of his race, but he can still be proud if it. 59.74 is FAST! I am glad that Brendan says it is not over for him. He is such a great man and this sport needs him. I can't wait for the medley (sick) relay!<BR/><BR/>Love you, Bren. Continue to collect memories of your second Olympics. How many people can say that?
