Well, unless we are equally whiny losers for filing a protest over the Japanese swimmer's alleged dolphin kick, I'm not sure why we should condemn the South Koreans.

Actually, the dolphin kick used by the Japanese swimmer was not alleged, it happened. The showed it on replay. Underwater cameras, you know.

He evidently was just told, "that's a no-no, don't do it again" because he didn't do it at all in the next race.
There was discussion by the commentators about all of this the other night.

My daughter is a swimmer. No dolphin kicking on breast stroke is allowed, period. OK on the other three strokes.
