I've been wondering if WCC's was inspired by Van Gogh's Starry Night, or if it's just a coincidence. That leo was another I found really pretty.

I like Hezly's and Leanne's leos the most.

It makes me sad that the FTYs aren't even spectacular ones. I don't understand what is going on nation-wide with vault.

I'm all for this. I've seen videos of the Russian figure skaters and it seems like they're introduced to all kinds of dance. I definitely think it would be helpful.

Another thing I was always taught is to sell my floor routine (and I was never even close to being elite), but that seems to be lacking in many of the U.S. women. You can tell which are engaged in their floor routines and which aren't. And it's a shame that some of the ones who are engaged are...

Yeah, I was thinking about this while I was at the U.S. Classic because we're now decades out of having elite compulsories. I used to not care, but it seems to be getting more and more obvious that U.S. elite gymnasts lack the fundamentals they once had. And it's like I'm the last person who...

I was there and wondering why there's a lack of color in warmups this year.

That explains a lot.

That dress looks like it's a size too small. I hate the squeezed look.

Yeah, I think this is totally insane. We already know the athletes are exhausted the more event finals they qualify for these days.

That was anticlimactic.

I also feel like it should be a compositional deduction if you're doing a two pass routine and both tumbling passes are in the first 20-30 seconds.

Yeah, this is my concern as well. I saw how tired the gymnastics looked on the last day of event finals last year and I can't imagine adding more competition.

I love UCLA's so much.

Well. Georgia just busted my bracket.
