Somehow, despite all the hype by the announcers, all the comparisons on the scoreboard and, most of all, in spite of the good intentions of the meet _ organizers, the Nationals just failed to live up to everyone's heightened expecta- tions. For the most part, though, it seems that the swimmers were the only ones not let down by the results and their quote failure to beat the Moscow times, unquote.
