Though it's sort of bullshit that he's allowed back in...

 

 

(and yes, I felt really sorry for him) 

 

I agree.  But still, Olympic spirit and all that.

Apparently it only counts as false start after the "on your marks" sign has been given, which wasn't the case yet

Wow, Penny's time this morning would have been good enough for silver in London!  Obviously other girls have improved, too, but it's still impressive.  

She is also only 16 years old.  So it's impressive

Ah, makes sense.  Thanks.  That makes me feel better about the whole thing.  Glad he got to race.

Sun Yang and Park being allowed to swim proves that doping is not just a Russian issue.

Hmmmm....probably not going to make the final with that time.

I still don't understand how he is allowed to swim at all
