The schools are cash-poor, the City College pool is mold-plagued, the team’s season is a wreck & your image needs rehab. Michael, what about it?

Another school year and more woes for the Baltimore City public school swimming pools, as the Sun reports today. City College has been particularly hard hit, causing plenty of heartache for the swim team members, many of whom have quit out of frustration.
Mold, problems with the drains. Poly‘s pools are out right now too. Today’s meet was canceled. Suggestion to Dr. Alonso and his facilities team: Start working on the pools NOW, so they might be ready for NEXT YEAR’S swim season. And maybe put in a call to Phelps’ publicist? But don’t call this guy. Try to figure out who on Phelps’ team is going to survive the shake-out after the hemp-rich smoke from this p.r. fiasco blows away.
