Burning Gymnastics Questions Anonymous
Why am I seeing reports that mai waifu Alicia Sacramone is retiring? So that means she will never do gymnastics again? What the hell.

Why am I seeing reports that SJ and NL are home in the USA? Don't they want to be at the closing ceremonies? Are they butthurt because they didn't win gold in the team event?

Last one: say if that Chinese girl is really underage: what would happen? Would USA get the gold? Would He be b& from competing next time around?

It is for gymnastics. That shit takes such a huge toll on your spine and joints that most gymnasts are fucked up pretty bad when they get older.

She'll be lucky if she's still walking without pain at 50.

Anywhere from the age of 16+ they're women are too difficult to be trained by men. If you're not getting them young and raising them how YOU want them, you're doing it wrong.

14 and below tend to have more body flexibility for this sport. so technically, since the rule is 15+. its cheating.

I thought Shawn was staying for the closing ceremony from what I heard, but it's not unheard of them to travel back and forth. However, Nastia mostly likely had to come home early since she's a college student.

Usually 24-25 is the absolute limit (that German chick was a rarity at 33). Funnily enough if you look back into the history, gymnasts used to do it through their 20's and usually retired in their late 20s-early 30s before they started to use 13-14 year olds. But I think her fuck up prolly aided in her throwing in the towel.

The Olypmics aren't set up to accomidate training needs, just the competitions. Very few athletes sit around for the whole Olympics for just this reason, some come in late, some leave early, some do both.

The only good thing that may come out of this is that she will start a career in the porn business.

Also will Nastia be returning? She'll be 24 by the next olympics.

She's not really German. She is Uzbek, and the only reason why she is still in the spot at 33 is because she needs the money to pay for her son's medical bills. Which is why she is competing for Germany- she has been shuttling around representing th highest bidder for the past few years.
