    Chn Ub Spoiler Alert!!!!!

    Yes, Shawn did vault in the qualifying round, and in the individual all around finals, which she qualified to compete in, she will only need to compete one vault (as will every one else). Not sure if you are clear that there are medals given for the team all around (after the finals on Tues...

    What happened to Samantha?

    So, is she or isn't she injured?

    Which 3 gymnasts do you think Marta will pick for each event for finals?

    My guess is: Vault: Alicia, Shawn and Bridget Bars: Nastia, Shawn and Chellsie Beam: Shawn, Nastia and either Alicia or Bridget (most likely Alicia) Floor: Shawn, Nastia and Alicia. I know Alicia had issues at the qualifying meet, but her record is solid on this event. Who knows...

    What happened to Samantha?

    oops, I had intended to make this post a thread by itself and it originally ended up here by accident. I just deleted this since I now realize what I did. :o

    What happened to Samantha?

    I know she only competed on bars, just like Alicia, and on another thread here, I read that she sprained her ankle in warmup, but why isn't their any press coverage of that? It's pretty sad for both her and Chellsie that their olympic competition got watered down to competing on one event only...

    Olympic Leos

    I hate ours and think they're our ugliest Olympic leos ever. I thought the leos from podium training were nice, although I know we wouldn't wear pink in competition for such a major US event, but that style in red would have been really nice (or maybe even white with red and blue crystals).

    Chn Ub Spoiler Alert!!!!!

    Yes, you do have to do two different vaults to qualify for vault finals, and I have no idea why Shawn (or anyone other than Alicia) doesn't have two different vaults. Can someone please tell us where you guys were watching this because I was up as it was happening and nothing was on t.v. as...

    I want your IGC Info

    It was 3 summers ago that this happened to us, but we were told that ALL girls with two piece suits that were not tankinis had to wear a tee shirt over their suit, even while in the pool. Perhaps she did have a more strict counselor, but I did make a phone call before sending that very...

    I want your IGC Info

    regarding swimsuits for IGC! My dd didn't go this year, but went two summers ago, and I loved it! She didn't like Woodward as much as IGC, and I loved how much safer and more stuctured IGC was than WW. My only complaint about IGC is that they did NOT tell us in advance that they don't allow...

    I want your IGC Info

    I highly recommend IGC. My dd went to Woodward for her first year of camp (age 10), and she'll never go back there. Woodward has no clue where your kids are or what they're doing other than the 2.5 or so hours they're in the gym. I went to visit and found kids hanging out in a ranch hand's...

    They're heading to the ranch

    I think that Alicia, Chellsie and Sam are sure bets in addition to Shawn and Nastia. I really don't think they'll pick Jana for a few reasons: She's not very polished, and really doesn't point her feet (she just tries to point the toes with her foot bunched up instead of in a straight line...

    um excuse me?

    No, I do get that. But what I don't get is how this guy could do so well, and a guy with much less than that (score wise) with an unproven track record could make the team a 2'nd time while this one is an alternate. I get the whole "need to balance out the team" bit and make sure they have...

    um excuse me?

    :confused:Haven't followed the men all that much, but did see the coverage on Raj on yesterday's live coverage in the afternoon, and after not making it last time, sticking around and working so hard AND coming in 3'rd all around at the trials, can someone PLEASE explain to me why he's NOT on...

    WAG trials day one USAG quick hits

    I have had conversations with Dar letting her know exactly that. While I do believe she is totally capable of being on the Olympic team, regardless of what happens or doesn't happen this weekend, she is amazing and has so much to be proud of. Her story is inspiring and I'm so proud of her for...

    WAG trials day one USAG quick hits

    Hi there, I was there in Philly tonight, and Nastia's dismount on bars was much like the dismount she did at the Visa Championships where she almost went down on her knees. From where I was sitting ( opposite side of the arena, but not that high up), it did look like her knees touched the mat...

    Leos at Visa Champs

    Not sure what you mean by the fact that you "already inserted foot in mouth". From the few posts I read, I didn't read ANYTHING that should make you feel that way. :confused: And again, EVEN if you did, I have no reason to share that with anyone. Again, my only reason for searching your...

    Leos at Visa Champs

    Uhm, no stalker. :D Just a Willmoor mom who wanted to see if there was any talk about Dar on here. :) I searched under her name and came to this thread and noticed you were here. And yes, that is my name and so now you know my dd is your dd's big sis at gym. ;) No need to watch what you...

    Leos at Visa Champs

    ..........and for the record, I thought Shawn's leos were the ugliest ever. Seriously ugly. More circus like than anything else. The orange color itself wasn't horrible, in and of itself, but that fake sleeveless look thing just wasn't working for her, and made her look like she belonged in...

    Leos at Visa Champs

    Ok, I am now 99.9 percent sure I know who your dd is and who you are. ;) I've done a little homework with your previous posts and figured it out. You definitely know me too. ;)
