      ​@ashleyc8373 Aside from the impact of the abuse she was going through, her coaches HORRIBLY misconstructed her routines. Her bars and floor had built in errors that were completely unnecessary, they could have totally structured her routines differently that wouldn't compromise the difficulty or necessary components. I'm sure I'm describing skills incorrectly, but her second low-to-high bar transition, the clear hip transition, plagued her and they totally could have changed that. And her third pass on floor was a constant problem that they could have worked around. Her 1.5 twist to her double back was constantly out of bounds or underrotated cause of the fear of going out of bounds. They totally failed her on her routine construction!!

No one on the american team has to use music from the states so it shouldn't be like that for other countries. I also found it annoying how they pick apart other countries mistakes but almost NEVER pick out mistakes from the US team. It's embarrassing honestly and I wish they had better commentators from the US. It's not hard to respect other athletes and give constructive criticism

Look at Jade Barbosa, Dani Hypolito, Catalina Ponor, Oksana Chusovitina, Vanessa Ferrari, and many others who've been competing for a number of years.

She was smart not to go through, back problems are nothing to joke with. It was wonderful to hear her retirement speech where she spoke of her appreciation for her accomplishments- they are still unfathomable in the sport. Today she is happily married… and who knows, maybe she’ll have a daughter who will follow in her footsteps!

    Just because Japan is a very patriotic focused country does not mean Koko "shamed" her country by not using music representing Japan. During the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, Nobunari Oda a Japanese figure skater did a routine with a Charlie Chaplin medley and Charlie Chaplin was a British film figure. Yet a lot of Japanese people loved it and thought he did a fantastic job.

    I find it so hilarious that over the course of the broadcast Tim, Al, and Elfi just loved to mention it when other gymnasts had issues with form but never once mentioned any form issues our girls had. They're a good bunch of gymnasts, but they all have issues with form as in bent knees, flat feet, not hitting their splits, a general lack of rhythm on beam and floor, and almost painfully bad form on UB. I wish they would take a leaf out the BBC's book they actually know how to commentate.

    When they talk about Sabrina Vega crying before the qualifying meet, I can't help but feel like they got it wrong and she wasn't crying out of being overwhelmed but out of being abused in some way. Either verbally by Marta Karoyli, or physically by Larry Nassar. It also breaks my heart knowing that it was at these championships where McKayla Maroney experienced dreadful abuse from Nassar which made her fear for her life.

    • @unleashedgeek7295
      @unleashedgeek7295 3 года назад +18

      I think the same as well. She *was* in fact abused by Nassar and sued the Karolyis, USOC, and USA Gymnastics. I can't believe she performed as well as she did considering all the shady shit that was going on behind the scenes.
      Maroney went through literal hell on earth in Tokyo. I read somewhere that she was drugged on the plane ride and woke up in Nassar's hotel room. She thought she was going to die that night. It's abominable and unthinkable that the staff allowed Nassar to be alone with her. Nassar and everyone who enabled him deserve to rot in hell.

    Sabrina competed on bars and beam in team finals while Gabby only competed on bars. Anna was the alternate, and although Alicia got hurt, the team was not changed as Anna was injured as well. Alicia went home for surgery, and Anna stepped out onto the floor and in the medal ceremony to fill out the team. The medal officially went to Alicia and USAG gave Anna a medal replica a few months later.

    • @gymcentric5727

      actually, i’ve heard Anna wasn’t injured but just in horrible luck with who got injured. Alicia competed all but UB, and Anna was only useful on UB. They needed to replace someone on the three events that Anna couldn’t help on. Anna still should have replaced Mykayla Maroney on UB as they already had 4 AA’ers.

    The Olympic AA champion is rarely the "Queen of the Quad". In gymnastics, the person who is best on the day of the competition is the winner. Fair and square. That's just the nature of the sport in its current state. I don't think it's sad at all. Komova would have won the AA in London had she not taken 3 unnecessary steps on her vault, but she did. Gabby did not make mistakes that night and she was rewarded for it.

    Hearing what Octavian Belu had said about wanting to go back to the 10 system, it doesn’t surprise me at all. He was so used to getting away with “just barely enough” that he couldn’t comprehend actually having to come up with real difficulty to be competitive. I love the open ended scoring system because it rewards both artistry AND difficulty- making the winner a much more fair outcome. I’m so glad he and his ilk are gone- so many harshly abused and disrespected athletes throughout his dictatorship.

    • @britneyg5522

      I agree about the abuse part but acting like Romania's routines (of course not from every single one of their gymnasts) on beam, floor and vault weren't difficult is just delusional. Not only that but they were innovative too, hence why there are so many skills named after Romanian athletes in the code of points.

By the early to mid 1990’s they were relying on simpler, more easily executed routines which worked for that system.

So many gymnasts harshly treated, overlooked- even though they were fantastic- just because he didn’t personally like them, so many more treated like cattle fodder in favor of his preferred “pets.” No athlete deserves that kind of environment. I stand also by what I said before- about it being nice to see difficulty being emphasized along with execution. Romania has learned to adapt to both and it’s why they are now back as a team at the Olympics.

    Watching this, it's rich coming from nbc commentators talking about form on uneven bars or artistry on beam and floor when nearly all of the US team heavily lacks in all those areas, what helped them was difficulty and consistency to be honest their execution isn't bad by any means but nothing to rave about either, too many flexed feet and bent knees and leg splits to count.

      I have to agree; choreography has really gone downhill in every country the last few years (barring a few exceptions) but Russia has collapsed in terms of artistry in the recent years, so unfortunate. I think they also changed their choreographer after 2012, which was a mistake imo bc 2012 makes pretty much the last time they had consistently good and innovative choreography in all of their athletes.

      +mchur001 Look, I don't know why you feel like you have to put down someone else's opinion. They took Anna Li. This happened 4 years ago. And sure Anna Li can do bars, but that's all she can do. Obviously they wanted to give her the experience of going, but had no intention of ever using her. Shawn had placed 4th on beam at Nationals, the last competition before both teams were selected. And she did win the Silver on UB at the PanAms. I'm just stating that I'm surprised they didn't take her as the first alternate. That's it. My opinion. Sheesh!!

There are probably about 500,000 different ways to pronounce people’s names based on what language the individual claims as their primary. These athletes are quite used to others mispronouncing their names, understanding that language changes pronunciation. Think about that instead of just complaining unnecessarily.

    I think Jordyn is a pretty good all arounder, but I think she should have gotten silver because of her huge form break on bars. It's sad how the AA Olympic champion of this quad is not the Queen of the Quad. She dominated for one night.

    • @saragrant9749
      @saragrant9749 9 месяцев назад +1

      That’s what the Olympics is about… and the world championships. Whoever wins that night is the queen or king of their sport. As much as many would have preferred to see Victoria win, she had less start value on vault and floor, many little bobbles on beam and a floor absolutely full of mistakes. That one error on bars for Jordyn was countered by a 7 tenth advantage on vault, 3 tenth advantage on floor and a substantially cleaner floor routine with just the one step out of bounds being a reasonably size able deduction. She won because she just plain made LESS mistakes and had more start value in key places.
