At the U.S. Trials there was one official in every lane looking at the turns, so now that we're in Athens, how does Kitajima get away with that dolphin kick on his turn? It seemed clear to me from the above water shot, then was confirmed with the underwater. Other breaststrokers care to weigh in?

    George, I respectfully disagree!!! Just because he didn't get DQ'd by the judge doesn't mean he shouldn't have! Just says the judge either a) didn't see it (I hope this is why)! or b) Let him get away with it because it is the Olympics! He clearly dolphin kicked on both the start and turn of the 100!
