Sour Grapes
I have bitten my tongue up until now because I recognize that the NBC announcers are understandably biased toward the American athletes.
But REALLY. Did you see those two routines tonight? There is no way Nastia should've won the silver. She was way better than the underage girl who, for better or worse, has inspired my contempt. The judges definitely appear to be pro-China, or at least seem to be according to the experts.
That tie-breaking procedure. . .RI-diculous. It makes absolutely zero sense.
It makes it that much of a heartbreaker to think that the Chinese broke the age limit rule, too. Grr. That really pisses me off.
Nastia showed real class on the podium, which makes me very proud of her and the way she and Shawn Johnson have represented the USA. (OMG - I'm so cheesy I should be on a Wheaties commercial! Do they still make Wheaties? I think I might have to go buy some. . . .)
