  • i can't believe they used carly over her in the team finals, carly messed it up anyway.

  • Oh, totally! She's gorgeous! Besides, bars have never been Carly's best apparatus!

  • the person cheering her on behind the commentators speaking is annoying... every skill she did you here "come on court".... i mean i'm all for encouragement but not EVERY skill.... :P

  • why didnt she compete in the team final

  • What does GAGE do that gives their gymnasts such excellent form. Ivana Hong has one of the only non-cowboyed double fronts I've ever seen, and Courtney's dismount here, I've rarely seen a double straight with less arching or piking, let alone the fact that she adds a full twist.

  • Absolutely beautiful. She does some of the prettiest gymnastics I've ever seen.

  • I find it funny how they talk about how excellent her form is (which mostly it is), but nobody mentions the fact that she FLEXES her feet in the middle of every kip.

  • @schill2002

    You're correct. Hong was pointless in TF.

  • @schill2002 why? if marta hated the GAGE girls she wouldn't put them on major teams in the first place. courtney was struggling with her routines all throughout podium training, and both she and ivana bombed prelims in their respective competitions, whereas carly was rock-solid in quals: sticking her DTY, UB dismount, and making beam finals. while i still would have put courtney in at least on UB in TF, there's no denying that carly was the better competitor who outscored CMC on UB on this day

  • @Smurfjr2000 I don;t even are about that so much (well, a little, certainly it would've been nice to get gold) but it just *sucks* that such a great athlete was treated that way. She must've felt terrible--she deserved to help the team, in the finals. She didn't deserve the shaft like that, it was the wrong decision (as poor Carly showed) and it was just a bad decision (I blame 6-3-3- or whatever the ruling was where every score counted). I wonder if Marta's ever apologized?
