You can appeal D score and you can appeal ND. You cannot appeal E score.

At least in Connecticut (well it was 2000ish, not sure if that eased up), you cannot declare education as your major until all general education pre-reqs have passed and with a B- or more. Then you need to complete a semester of pre-education classes and apply to the School of Education. I had...

I never got that NBC was pushing McCool as the unexpected Olympic All Around champion. But maybe that is me? I just took it as the new senior that is making a push for the Olympics. NBC did the same thing for both Schwikert and Hernandez. If you recall, NBC hyped Schwikert during the American...

They didn't need to fabricate anything for her resume. She had plenty of other successes as well other than the test event. I do agree that NBC trio was over the top and often made asinine comments.

There was no all around "final" but McCool did win the AA in qualifications.

The former gymnasts that act as commentators are chosen for their name and fame not for their broadcasting ability. Very few actually have public speaking or any other communications. Sam Peszek majored in Communication Studies. Bridget Sloan majored in Telecommunicatons. Anastasia Webb did...

Undeclared means that they have not chosen their major yet. Often times a student might be undecided about what they want to concentrate on. Also transfers are sometimes listed as undeclared. When I transferred initially I was listed as undeclared, even though I was a junior because I had...

So 7 countries listed. Does that mean that there will be USA 1 and USA 2? That's what I think will happen.

I couldn't remember about the Lopez, but I remembered she had a Pod. If she didn't get injured I do imagine she would have taken Humphrey's spot for VT/FX

Robinson and Gentry are coaches at Pacific Reign. So conflict of interest with their athletes. Priess is with Alabama for NCAA and Tarver is at SCSU for NCAA. Priess I don't see judging elite anytime soon due to potential conflict as Alabama head coach.

She didn't do it at Nationals or at Trials. It was not required to show two different vaults for the AA in that quad, once they did away with it after the 2001 Worlds. USA did two nights of AA and night 1 counted as event finals as well. So just one vault at Nationals got you the vault gold...

Bars is the deepest event for the team. Even Alexis Jeffrey who was a regular in line ups hasn't been making it in. Chio is going to go for AA, McClain because McClain, Zeiss has proven to be a strong lead off, and Ashley Cowan is a SEC bars champ. It happened that the transfers are also strong...

Thanks for seeing the typo...fixed!

She's training. The depth on that event right now is so strong. I suspect they are going easier on her and will later get her into the line ups.

I agree. Just award both of them a bronze. Voinea should get one too, but it appears the appeal was not put in place to question the OOB, neutral deduction so that is Mama Voinea's fault.
