    Event (FIG) 2025 Tashkent World Challenge Cup (Jun 18-21)

    Okay, you know I meant barbosu... but, on point response.

    Event (FIG) 2025 Tashkent World Challenge Cup (Jun 18-21)

    Someone's gotta have the numbers of her vs Esposito vs Barbosa vs Hang(? Not sure who is the current best USA) vs whoever is top in China (one of the Zhangs? Qin?) vs Sugihara. That feels like it covers the top gymnasts we've seen. I always liked when Spencer or someone broke out the numbers and...

    Post Olympics (September 2024) Articles and Social Media posts

    Guess mommyblogging or whatever she does isn't paying the bills--gotta hitch that wagon to the culture wars and trashing minor children of a minority group. Seems on brand.

    Post Olympics (September 2024) Articles and Social Media posts

    I saw an article about the swimmers response to Simone's apology, and it is exactly what you would expect from someone who has made shoveling hate and bootlicking conservatives their entire personality. I'm also upset that she is getting to use Simone's popularity to increase her own standing...

    Post Olympics (September 2024) Articles and Social Media posts

    Using another woman (or child, can't remember how old Simone was) sexual assault as an attempt to "dunk" on her? Gross. How very "pro-woman" they are. Their followers are telling them how fucking gross that is, right? (gladder every day that I don't use the xitter) (and I don't care where you...

    Li Li Leung steps down as USA President/CEO will finish out 2025 year.

    Well, I don't recall any major scandals so, one of the more successful presidencies. And I don't remember her saying anything incredibly stupid on social media at least and that is a kind of win.

    Takeaways from 2025 Euros

    She is a bit Skinnerish--too good to leave off a team, not good enough to be the star she thinks she should be. And without a trajectory change, unlikely to progress.

    Romania

    And then you have Sabrina and Camelia who always seem to bring the team vibe down. Sabrina is undoubtedly talented but her struggles to bring it at the major competitions--especially after constantly being pimped out at the only good thing on the team--hurts the whole team.

    Event 2025 European Championships - Mixed Team Final (May 28)

    (caveat: I didn't watch or read the rules, just what y'all have been talking about) I think it was one of the sport climbing events at the olympics last year that had the 3rd (?) place finisher setting the world or olympic record but getting bronze. It makes some sense that you can't have 8...

    Event 2025 European Championships - Mixed Team Final (May 28)

    If they allowed the federation to pick who competed, it would have been the perfect chance to give their fav Sabrina a shot at redemption.

    Event 2025 European Championships - Quals & Team Finals (May 26-27)

    Italy has such depth. Esposito and D'Amato of course, but the rest of the Olympic team isn't there. I haven't kept up on injuries, breaks, or retirements but it is really something that they aren't leaning hard on their Olympians. Sofia Tonelli went from a 51.4 at Jesolo to a 53.3 to qualify 4th...

    You Hao Parallel Bars @ Chinese Nationals

    I like the skills in PBars, but part of me wishes it flowed more like current womens UB. The (relatively) long handstand holds do nothing for me.

    Romania

    I'm not usually a foot form purist, but even on that tiny screen, I can see she has lots of foot form deductions...

    Blakely and Wong Attending National Team Camp

    Well, in all honesty, how good are most US schools these days? The number of people who apparently know that New Mexico is a state and not part of Mexico makes me think the education system has failed. And with all the changes they will ram thru in the next 4 years, well, if the kids in Texas...

    Japan names World Teams 2025

    It is giving me total Selena vibes. Someone change her music to "Dreaming of You" or something. ;-)
