2023 Xfinity Nationals Senior WAG Day 2 discussion

I don’t see why they would. They will never get on the team.

They are also choosing Pan Am Games team. Plus John said they were taking 18 gymnasts to camp

 

[JaJa]

They wanted to drive people on this board crazy and they figured that would do it

 

[MaryClare]

I think it’s up to 18

Roberson is Athlete of the Year? How?

I wouldn’t be shocked if she’s on the team between this and the shilling NBC did for her.

 

[rlayt]

Ha! The athletes’ Council chose Roberson. It sounds like other athletes. She’s cheerful, positive, outgoing, a good team member.

 

[irichluck21]

How has Roberson won athlete of the year?!

Shawn Johnson won the Longines Prize for Elegance so we are in that alternative Earth

 

[MaryClare]

Don’t post shit like that without a trigger warning

She also did the most international assignments this year as well

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

I think Roberson has competed internationally more than any US senior this year, so that logic makes sense

 

[blake]

Maybe it’s a consolation prize for leaving her off Worlds and Pan Ams teams. One can hope.

OMG, I had forgotten about that total disgrace

 

[MaryClare]

I hadn’t realised that Skye beat Jade on vault

 

[blake]

I don’t think there’s ever been enough athletes with two vaults to fill out the podium before, and that’s with Simone opting to not do a 2nd vault tonight!

 

[QuietColours]

The main issue is we just don’t know how often her bad days are, and if they’re getting better, worse, or if they’re staying about the same. Is this a once a month issue or a twice a week? Did it happen a lot for a few months and hasn’t been a problem for the last month? Or could she not do bars three days last week? We just have no idea.

 

[RedBirdie]

An 8.35 e score (because your arm is all tingly and you can’t actually block) will do that.

 

[RAFIKI]

It’s great. The first US nationals I ever watched was 99 when they still did proper EF. Nice to see vault competitive again.

 

[makam]

I like Zeiss’ leo.

 

[RAFIKI]

Patterson got it in 2003 as well

 

[MaryClare]

Ok well if Roberson does go to worlds, at least we’ve lived through worse
