Like, I know it is required for a network person to pretend to not know anything about the sport so they can lead the "experts" into discussion that also helps the audience, but Paul, ffs, research. Not knowing anything about the sport you are commentating on is not something to brag about.

So annoying that this has turned into the "worship Trinity Thomas show."

The worst part is this is a freaking YouTube stream. The only people watching are hardcore gym fans in the first place.

I do like Moreau, her basics seem strong. Now she has to advance past basic.

 

[QuietColours]

Okay, I do like the shout out to the rest of the crew

 

[Passion]

Moreau's BB score still hasn't posted

After the 3rd rotation

1. Hezly Rivera - 42.650
2. Charleigh Bullock - 41.600
3. Claire Pease - 41.250
4. Simone Rose - 40.200
5. Reese Esponda - 40.150
6. Caroline Moreau - 40.100
7. Izzy Stassi - 39.500
8. Addy Fulcher - 39.100
9. Greta Krob - 39.000
10. Isabella Anzola - 38.500
11. Kaylee Sath - 37.550
12. Alessia Rosa - 37.250
13. Annalisa Milton - 37.000
13. Lila Richardson - 37.000
15. Ally Damelio - 35.400

What they showed on the steam for the AA standings was missing Moreau.

Great floor from Esponda!

 

[QuietColours]

Great floor, and that barani double back pass was cool

 

[QuietColours]

What has happened to the US's vaults? Is it just everyone really only aiming for NCAA, so why bother with a DTY?

 

[RedBirdie]

What a miserable day for Ally Damelio.

I don't know, but it's pissing me off. FTYs from senior elites is inexcusable.

That plus the well intentioned but stupid “requirement” to have 2 vaults. No DTYs but yay, everyone can chuck a tsuk full with zero upgrade potential

 

[MaryClare]

What a miserable day for Ally Damelio.

Well at least she didn’t have to listen to Paul Juda’s commentary

 

[makam]

My stream keeps hiccuping but fulcher's same bar release looked dumpy as hell and her transition back to high sucked.

 

[RedBirdie]

Fulcher horribly sloppy on bars. I know she had to switch gyms because Bull City closed, but the switch to Georgia Elite doesn't seem to be working for her.

 

[Passion]

Hezly Rivera - 56.750 AA
14.150 / 14.300 / 14.200 / 14.100

Hilarious. Those e scores are all
0.5 more than she’d have got at Cottbus

 

[QuietColours]

Rivera looked good. If I were her I'd be absolutely desperate to prove that I was worth that Olympic gold that I contributed no scores too. I know there's the line of "Best Olympic gold, just had to put on her makeup and cheer" but that cannot be what she wants as an athlete if she worked this hard to get this far.

At least. Judges must've gotten loaded at lunch.
