I was lucky to catch Shawn Johnson's beam routine in the prelims, which was fantastic! We've had loads of swimming, rowing, basketball, hockey, badminton, table tennis, volleyball, sailing, judo, equestrian...heck gymnastics is about the only thing I've really missed out on!

But he won't be found out until, maybe 8 years later. Marion Jones ring a bell? Yup, he won't be caught, or nobody wanted to find out until later when nobody cares... You hear it here first! GO CHINA GO, GO KICK USAss! Phelps signed up for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's new pilot drug-testing program. He's being tested all the time. Means nothing. They can hide the fact, no? Why did it take them so long to catch Cheat Jones?

You don't have to wait 12 hours or whatever to watch them on freaking NBC, pretending that they're live. Of course, if you know any French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Korean etc, it means you have a lot more options. Ha.

Where do you live and work, Vent? Must be China, am I right? Talking about ignorance. So rooting for Chinese must be from China? How narrow is your mind?

It rewards people for having incredibly difficult routines, even if they don't do well. It really caters to the Chinese because of their huge difficulties. So many people are getting underscored and overscored because of their difficulty. Plus getting the scores takes a year.

Ok, this dorky-cutie American kid who just did the kick-ass Pommel Horse routine can tie for one of the medals. Last Edited By: totell 08/13/08 11:15 PM. Edited 3 times.

They want the gymnasts to focus more on the artistry and less on the difficulty and I agree. I'd rather see something done beautifully than a huge move that has no artistry. Remember when they used to all perform the exact same routines?

Remember when they used to all perform the exact same routines? i do. and then i remember when the best possible score you could attain was a "10." back when these governing bodies were more interested in us common folk wanting to understand and appreciate their sport, and wanting us on their side. as opposed to what they do now. being all high and mighty about their "business". implementing their "rules" and "scoring" so that no one but them can understand. nice. well played. fuck the casual viewer. keep this up and in a few more olympics, no one will watch what you fucks present. well played.

Part of the gymnastics for me is how good a landing you do, it's no good doing a complicated routine if you can't finish it off with a good landing IMO. There's one routine to go in the mens here, the ads are on.

Or possibly in the final, one routine was the same and the other was individual so they had two marks and then the winner was the overall on both? Or am I just hoping for that? lol
