I don't recall off the top of my head, but the team definitely doesn't include any of the dual-nationality NCAA gymnasts.

My inner cynic thinks she faked her own kidnapping. But my inner decent person just wants her to be okay.

He Kexin also had a baby girl recently.

Vanesa Masova (CZE) is very promising.

Not necessarily. Any critiques of the COP would be apparent in the non-gymnastics terminology.

Agreed. I particularly enjoy her FX choreo.

Yes, thank you!

I'm sorry you had to go through that. I think some parents struggle to balance the desire to see their kids succeed against their own vanity and insecurity. I know my mom did and still does--even though I'm now 54 and she's 80. We ended up in completely different fields, but that never stopped...

That's precisely my point.

I've developed a lot of admiration for Barbosu since the Olympics, and it's definitely heartening to see Romania on the upswing (pun intended). I also recently noticed that Barbosu bears some facial resemblance to a young Courtney Kupets (ca. 2003-04). I wanted to add something deep and...

I think she was a timer on BB and/or FX.
