London Olympics 2012 - SPOILER ALERT

<p>Oh my, that is a low score for Aly. Obviously the judges can see more than I can on my iphone, but I’m surprised.</p>

<p>I guess the question was she was only given a start value of 6.2 where she is usually given closer to a 6.4.</p>

<p>Change to a 6.3 start value which gave a tie. Aly gets the bronze due to execution!</p>

<p>This sounds terrible for the US team. </p>

<p>But thanks for updating. I can’t log into the live stream today, so your posts are the only info I’m getting.</p>

<p>I’ve got my fingers crossed for Jordyn for floor.</p>

<p>OK, I’m wondering if my live stream is not as live as some of you. alwaysamom posted Raisman’s appeal decision about 7 minutes before I saw it on my computer!</p>

<p>Raisman won her appeal and won a tie-break for 3rd.</p>

<p>This beam final was incredibly disappointing.</p>

<p>Afanasyeva needs to win the floor final.</p>

<p>

Me too. I don’t think she’s the favorite, but I’d like to see her medal.</p>

<p>Yay for Raisman!!! What an Olympics…to lose a bronze and win a bronze, both on tie breakers.</p>

<p>Komova just flat out gives up.</p>

<p>The Chinese girls really deserved to win.</p>

<p>Aly Raisman, can you win floor???</p>

<p>fireandrain, I’m watching it on tv not a live stream. :)</p>

<p>alwaysamom, to much is given, much is expected. :)</p>

<p>It’s up to you to keep us updated now. Go Canada.</p>

<p>I better see some hit routines from Zonderland, Horton, etc. Lest we see Zou Kai win.</p>

<p>Uh oh, hayden. I’m afraid I am headed out for an appointment. Will resume my post upon my return. :)</p>

<p>I think Siu Lu was very disappointed with her silver. She had the top score qualifying - Den Linlin was 4th. When the results were final, the commentators were saying that Siu Lu had tears of joy, but I don’t think so. She expected to win. She didn’t smile on the medals stand and looked teary-eyed. Raisman and Den Linlin hugged, but Siu Lu only got a handshake from Den Linlin (cultural? IDK.)</p>

<p>I don’t think I’ll be able to see the entire floor final. Afanasyeva is up first. Hopefully I’ll be able to see it and hopefully her score will hold so she can claim her gold medal. Too bad we won’t be seeing Moors in the final.</p>

<p>I said “Go Canada”, and now you’re saying Canada is really going? Rats.</p>

<p>The HB final was so good, and I’m glad Zonderland won. The men’s EFs have definitely turned out to be better than the women’s.</p>

<p>Spain a silver in duo sync swimming. Yay!</p>

<p>Yes, I follow Spain. Retiring there in 2 years.</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>Good luck to him. Being 6’5" and having chronic back problems is not really the body-type conducive to success under the kinds of stress soccer places on the body.</p>

<p>Afan won’t be winning gold. And probably not a medal. I have to go, but hopefully some one like Wieber or Mustafina wins it.</p>

<p>Bolt doesn’t have to make a career out of playing soccer. Just a game or two or three. I Would like to see somebody with Bolt’s speed on the pitch.</p>

<p>Some people with great speed aren’t agile enough to play sports like soccer. I would just like to watch Bolt try.</p>

<p>No big deal.</p>

<p>Bolt doesn’t have to quit his day job. :)</p>

<p>Raisman is currently on top. She looked great!</p>

<p>Raisman wins floor!!! She was my favorite going in. I’m so happy for her!!!1</p>
