Olympics 2008

[blueerica]

Well, I really haven't seen anyone truly benefit from this horrific scoring... even the Chinese. And, he did congratulate the judges for pulling their collective heads out of their asses for the individual floor exercise, which actually seemed rather fair (the Russian girl truly deserved 1st, and I felt as though 2nd and 3rd were screwy, but otherwise not .

While I was a little sad he didn't talk about (what I thought were) the injustices against a number of athletes, most notably Oksana Chusovitina on the vault (total BS that she got silver to Little Missed Landing), I can't say he was wrong about a bit of it.

I don't know what's up with the Olympics this year, boxing events are being scored for crap, gymnastics scoring is inconsistent at best. At least I've got swimming and track and field... and I guess diving wasn't all that off-base.

*sigh*

I did like the little bit on people losing sleep over the Olympics... I'm one of them.
