The thing that's pissing me off about gymnastics is the new scoring system. Losing the 10.0 perfection I thought was a mistake, but if the new open ended system provides better results, I'll give it a try. Well, it sucks. No one knows WTF is going on, big talk prior to their events gets rewarded just as much as how the event was actually executed, and now we get this tiebreaker bullshit. Plus, the thing unmentioned is the judging panel composition. I use to love the olden days when you have a panel of fully biased judges who'd reward a solid effort with a smattering of 9.4's to 9.6's except for that bitch East German who'd ALWAYS throw down a 8.2 for NATO and 9.8 for Warsaw Pact. So with high/lows disregarded, the panel basically got it right. Why not bring back panels in which all 8 judges are from the countries of the 8 gymnasts?

That's some shit right there. American players lay out two Chinese catchers on plays at the plate. That's baseball - happens all the time. Hell, Pete Rose did it in an All-Star Game. The Chinese pitcher then threw at the guy who laid out the catcher - but at his fucking head. The kid that got hit in the head has a mild concussion. That's a big fucking deal. Hit batsman retaliation is part of the game, but you don't throw at someone's head. And then some Chinese douchebag hits a homerun in the 9th inning in a 9-0 game they were losing and he trots around the bases like Kirk Gibson or Joe Carter with his hand in the air. Classless horseshit on the part of the Commies. I feel sorry for the women's softball team. Not their fault that every other country sucks ass at the game. Oh, and I noticed that the manager of the Chinese baseball team is Jim Lefebvre (sp?). Can't there be a rule that these coaches can't all swap countries. Chinese dudes coaching the American female gymnasts. American dudes coaching Chinese baseball players. American chicks playing basketball for Russia because her grandmother once blew a guy named Mikhail in the 50's?!?!?!? There's a lot of shit they gotta fix. Oh and the American chick who won gold in the discuss may be the ugliest looking chick on the planet.

Listen tomorrow and you'll know what I mean. The ladies who carry out the medals are beautiful.

Hell look at how basketball is so global but it took years to get there.

Why not bring back panels in which all 8 judges are from the countries of the 8 gymnasts? fuck impartiality. put the chinese, usa, russian, whatever... on the judging table. of course the russian goes 10.0 for the russian and the american goes 5.5. that is old school. we are used to that. so what? i swear the nclb folks are behind this new scoring system. i envision a future olympics when each and every competitor get a medal. a "hugs and rainbows and pony" medal. a "you are unique and special no matter where you finish" medal. 10.0 is the shit. do it. judge it fairly. that is the answer...

Not familiar with how taht works and havent watched the womans to see. Top 18 qualify for the semi final. I would really like the Dmitry Sautin (Russia) or Joona Puhakka (Finland) to take the Gold in this event. ya thanks. I guess i shouldve waited to watch the competition since they mentioned it a bunch of times. Im bummed on how bad canada's alexandre despatie is doing. People thought he was going to be a front runner but his done shitty in his first two events. Hopefully hell be better in the semifinal and final. I really want him to get the gold, but as long as he gets silver ill be happy. I wouldn't count him out yet, with diving anything could happen. Alexanre is an amazing diver, had some bad dives in the prelims, but things could change for the better. Yup you were definiltey right. He placed second! If he can do as well as he is now, in the final, he will have silver. Hopefully hell take the gold though.

Exoctic cute now including chicks that could snap your spine like a toohpick. Still, I liked her. I saw the womens shotput live in Atlanata. It gave me one of my top five favorite memories of that Olympiad. A huge overmuscled German chick bounding around the stadium making our beers emanate rows of contact circles like in the coffee cup in Juraissic Park as the Tyranorsours Rex approached. Not kidding. Wheh that chick bounced up and down on her victory round, I was in the 200's and felt it. Still, she was infectious, we all loved loved loved her for her sheer joy, and I remain with hopes of one day boinking her.

Nastia and He should both get the gold. Actually by listening to the commentators, this shouldnt even be the case. They all believed that Nastia was clearly BETTER in her routine - that is, that the Chinese infant should have had MORE deductions. The Canadian commentator chick kept going on about this. Should have never gotten to the point that the tiebreaker horseshit came into play. Fucking Australian judge fucked her up. But lets be honest, none of us probably give one tenth of one shit about gymnastics save for the Olympics, but please tell me how there's no 'Perfect 10' in Olympics. I know they were trying to get away from biased judges and the other fiascos, but c'mon - perfect 10 is synonymous with Gymnastics. Nastia, a teenager, exuded class when she was interviewed. Don't fret young Nastia, you'll be getting your gold via fed-ex in a few weeks when the truth comes out that these little Chinese gymnasts were 6 years old.
