Downie on vault- You gotta love the British commentators. Even when discussing their "own" gymnasts, they don't fall into jingoism. When asked if she had a shot at a medal, the "expert" commentator (as opposed to the Everyman commentator) merely said that if she hit all of her routines, she could have a good result.
Porgras on uneven bars- I always look forward to watching the Romanians on uneven bars. Nothing I like better than poor form and a labored swing. But more important than all of that- she has cheekbones that could cut glass.
Deng Linlin- Cute but the Chinese aren't helping their case against the underage gymnast claims with this one. My 8 year old niece looks more mature. Decent routine, labored kips (again).
Sloan- don't care what anyone says about her flag feet. I will take her flag feet anyday over the labored kips of the Chinese, Semenova's flexed feet and the way Rebecca Bross keeps her feet together anyday.
