    based on gabby's 15.033 (15.066?) and aly's 15.133 and the fact only 2 out of 60 qualifiers apparently went over 15, komova's routine didn't really look like a 15.36 or better. on the floor exercise you seem to lose a point just for showing up.

    and i'm not sure why the tiebreaker for 3rd was throwing out the low score. why is screwing up worse a good thing? although if aly doesn't screw up the beam then that doesn't matter. about halfway through her beam routine i was thinking how much i liked watching her because she wasn't flashy but always seemed really steady. and then about 5 seconds later she almost fell to the floor.

    good to see phelps get the individual medal.

    I just somehow found this thread (and forum for that matter)

    while watching the rebroadcast on the West Coast, I just heard a Romanian doing her floor routine to a really cool arrangement of 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' in the individual all around...

    she should have been given bonus points for that alone...

    there have been some other cool British songs that have been featured as well.

    no, but funny story. Same girl was sitting on a friends lap during a meet, he had a white towel wrapped around his waste (I'm sure you can see where this is going). She gets up, red spot right where she was sitting.

    You know i don't give a F about you and your sorry azz hater-parade on me.

    You couldn't even bring a proper argument against me on this one, just one dumb word with no meaning in this context.

    If you think majority of athletes are clean you should stop reading fairy tales and believing milk+hard work only make you the best athlete in the world.

    Now please stop replying to my posts and get on with your life.

    You expect him to prove something that you have shown no proof of whatsoever? Then you get the last word in and put him on ignore...pretty weak bro.

    Talk about the biggest PMS in probably the history of clutchfans.

    You managed to use that one post that consisted of one word, and come up with probably the most irrelevant rant ever in the history of forum posting. Not only did you manage to come up with a strawman argument regarding a point I never made, but you somehow managed to convince yourself that I've been following you around.

    First of all, if you don't want your posts to be replied to, then go write a blog or something. Second of all, this is the only post I made in this entire thread, I have no idea how you even came up with the idea that I've been constantly replying you.

    Thirdly, as already mentioned, you don't seem to understand how arguments work (going by this thread you don't seem to know how anything works). If you are asserting a premise or proposing an argument, it is not on others to come up with proof against it but instead on you to come up with proof to support it. Have you heard of "proving a negative"? Probably never. Can you prove to me right now that there isn't a giant invisible floating penis above your head that is constantly ejaculating intangible sperm on you?

    Quoting this so maybe he'll respond to his outlandish accusations.

    Del Po vs. Federer is a great match going on now. No tiebreaker for the final set. Fed got his first break against Del Po, was gonna serve for the match, but then Del Po broke back against Fed. Now back on serve and 14-14.

    Dang, Fed goes up Love-40 on Del-Po's serve to earn 3 break points. Del Po wins 5 straight points with strong serves to hold the game. Clutch play.
