I think a rule should be written where you get DQ'd for clapping, slapping etc once you have been called on to the block. Biggest offenders are Volmer, Phelps and Cielo (though Cielo doesn't usually do it on the blocks.) Thoughts...
it really bothers me when swimmers who have finished are celebrating and jumping on the lane line and splashing over the lane line, before the other swimmer has finished. it is not inconceivable they could be dq'ed for impeding the other swimmer...just keep the celebration in your own lane please! keep up the good swims team usa! :applaud:
