But, ugh, Arkansas. Ugh.

I really really hate Arkansas. But I don’t know why.

Please someone tell me why I hate them so much

 

[RedBirdie]

I can't, because I also irrationally hate them.

 

[MaryClare]

I can't, because I also irrationally hate them.

Ok, I feel much better now. It was driving me crazy. Maybe it’s just one of those things I have to accept. Like Crocs

 

[RedBirdie]

I will never accept Crocs

 

[Laura722]

I wouldn't go so far as to say I hate Arkansas, but they are just so meh. There is nothing really interesting about them to me.

 

[MaryClare]

I will never accept Crocs

I am plagued by them. Pool, rink, gym. Almost every training my kids are at, there are f*cking crocs everywhere. There is one exception and that is ballet. They are banned at ballet for foot development reasons.

 

[cftmoonlight79]

I also hate crocs

 

[Gymnast09]

one judge gave Jordans vault a 10 when she clearly hopped

 

[RedBirdie]

Got ourselves a nail-biter here. Only
.150 separating 1st from 4th, with Minnesota leading.

 

[Laura722]

Minnesota, OMG.

 

[RedBirdie]

Mike Webster-Longin is having an awful day. Falls on vault and bars

 

[cftmoonlight79]

Will Mika do the last 2 events, or do you pull her

 

[Laura722]

Will Mika do the last 2 events, or do you pull her

You'd think they would pull her on beam.

This is a crazy competition!

 

[RedBirdie]

Minnesota still is first, followed by UCLA, Alabama, then Utah. But only .200 between first and fourth.

 

[RedBirdie]

You'd think they would pull her on beam.

This is a crazy competition!

They have pulled Mika from beam. Still in the floor line up at the moment

 

[Laura722]

Bama needs some sticks on their final 3 vaults.

 

[cftmoonlight79]

Oh Bama you are breaking my heart

 

[Laura722]

Saltzmann has had a nice day for Minnesota so far.

 

[Laura722]

I don't want to jinx them, but I think Minnesota is going to advance. They have led the entire competition so far. I'm shocked!

Edit: Oh, Utah just went slightly ahead of them.
