update on the gymnasts.....

Quote :
"BEIJING (AP) -- Just nine months before the Beijing Olympics, the Chinese government's news agency, Xinhua, reported that gymnast He Kexin was 13, which would have made her ineligible to be on the team that won a gold medal this week.

In its report Nov. 3, Xinhua identified He as one of "10 big new stars" who made a splash at China's Cities Games. It gave her age as 13 and reported that she beat Yang Yilin on the uneven bars at those games. In the final, "this little girl" pulled off a difficult release move on the bars known as the Li Na, named for another Chinese gymnast, Xinhua said in the report, which appeared on one of its Web sites, http://www.hb.xinhuanet.com

The Associated Press found the Xinhua report on the site Thursday morning and saved a copy of the page. Later that afternoon, the Web site was still working but the page was no longer accessible. Sports editors at the state-run ne"

The Americans are getting screwed again.

This is why judged events should not be considered sports.

It's pretty fucked up, when it's that apparent... I mean, one or two off scores is okay, but it's getting a bit silly.

I mean, you could say the same about events with referees.

Only time/distance events would count.

I can't believe I missed Blake's/Fed's match. It seemed pretty epic from what I read.

As for this gymnastics thing we are totally getting hosed. This isn't just about "rawr rawr go Amurica" sour grapes but this is just silly.

I am no gymnastics expert (I do know that if you bust your ass, that's not good), so me knowing that we're getting screwed means we're getting screwed.

Apparently, the Olympics weren't the only thing the Chinese paid for. I guess the judges were in the package deal.

I don't mind giving props to China or any other country when it's deserved but seriously. Once you discount the obviously bias announcers it's clear to everyone actually watching the routines that the USA is getting gyped.

^^^^They might be bias but what they are saying is true. There are a lot of obvious mistakes by other girls that are getting scores much higher than they should.

I'm sick of these judges, the beam was the worst showcase of judging I've seen on the olympics since I started watching them in 1996 in Atlanta...

stoked about the USA Gold-Silver finish, but Johnson still got hosed on the balance beam.. that was pretty obvious. Still a great competition. Way to finish it off at the end.
