[tempest]

fuck that was close but so happy!

 

[arabiandoublefront]

I’m crying because they’re crying.

 

[blueghost]

Wow… that was a great competition!

 

[Angelika]

Jesus - I haven’t been able to breathe for the last 5 minutes - that was sooo close. And Artur survived to die another day!

 

[rlayt]

So exciting!

 

[tsarinajen]

YES!!! I can’t believe they did it.

IT IS A COMPLETE SENTENCE.

 

[JDB]

Wow only one tenth between ROC and Japan.

 

[RAFIKI]

Gripping from start to finish. Great top five. So happy for (not) Russia.

 

[tsarinajen]

I’m so glad and I work from home, and I was to “work” through this. Epic team final.

 

[dweiss324]

Oh. My. God. My kids just saw me lose my ***king mind. Crying dying, that was one of the best meets I have ever seen

 

[Doug1233]

Was Sam’s fall (plus lost D) the diff between USA and GBR?

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Shane had issues, too, on floor. His score was significantly lower (more than a point) even though he didn’t fall. I’m not solely going to place the blame on Sam. The team was four points lower on floor than in prelims.

 

[Doug1233]

What was up with Shane’s floor?

At least Sam’s fall didn’t cost a medal.

Did GB go 18 for 18?

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

That was quite the shitshow from the US on floor. I really thought they were well clear on 4th, they’d been better than prelims on most of the other events and had about 2 points on GB going into the final round.

Also, Max doe not seem like someone who’s about to win another Olympic pommels title.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

I don’t think Shane stuck any pass except his last. One pass was significantly low and messy. I don’t know exact deductions, so my explanation is vague.

 

[irichluck21]

Massive issues. All 3 gymnasts scored in the 11s.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

That’s just about the lowest TF one event total I remember ever seeing in a major competition.
