I figured since there was a Michael Phelps thread, I might as well start one about my new favorite athlete. She may have cost the women's team the gold, but with an ass like that, I'm sure they forgive her.
I felt bad for her. I just can't imagine what the pressure weighing on her must have been like during the event. Once the fall on the beam occurred, the a$$-plop during the floor exercise was practically inevitable. In the end, the two 0.8 deductions for those mistakes didn't make up the total difference in the team scores plus it's quite tough to overcome "home field advantage".She did a good job of holding back the tears after balance beam fall.
Her beam routine was amazing. It's like she was on a steel rail with magnets for feet.By the way... Shawn Johnson is 4'9".
No wonder she's so good.
She has no center of balance. Her entire body IS a center of balance.
That's exactly what I said last night. Every time she touches a surface you can practically hear her feet lock onto it.magnets for feet.
Maybe all the equipment is made out of egg beater pedals and she has the cleats molded into her feet.That's exactly what I said last night. Every time she touches a surface you can practically hear her feet lock onto it.

No kidding. Some of them looked like they were 10.No way some of those Chinese gals are 16. Bela Karoli (sp?) was speculating that the Chinese officials were basically printing up their "passports" (that prove their age) in the basement of the building.
It wasn't really like those falls ultimatly cost the US anything. Yes, it sucks that she went down, and I'd be pissed at myself too, but the way things turned out, even without those two deductions the US still would have finished second.I've met her a couple times through a friend that almost made the team, I felt really bad for her but apparently she's doing alright and not taking it to hard.
And there is no freaking way the Chinese are 16, 13 at most.
Shawn Johnson FTW. She is MUCH cuter. Alicia looks like a bizzatch
Just keep the belt tight and your zipper up...felt awkward watching the gymnastics yesterday because of how retarded young the chinese team looked.
That cost me like $10 in Thailand.Any of us would be thrilled to have either one do a double-summersault with full twist back roundoff whatchamahizzy and land reverse cowgirl on our uneven bars...so don't front.
