Will the IOC have the cojones to strip them of their medals?

Oh, BURN.

IOC won't do anything, they're the biggest organization of passive-aggressive do-nothings on the planet.

Gymnastics is one of the very few areas where being quite young is of substantial benefit. The average age of gymnasts in the olympics is much lower than, say, the track elements. Once you reach a certain age in gymnastics, you hit a biological and physical wall and you start to decline. Much the same as any other sport, except that wall appears much sooner in gymnastics.

I agree that they won't do anything, but they're definitely the opposite of passive-agressive. They're much more likely to manipulate all available evidence of the girls' ages to make it appear that they are of proper age.

China is serious business.

uhm, he didnt hack anything. what he did is better classified as investigative journalism. if he broke into the General Administration of Sport of China and stole/viewed the docs out of/in their network that would be more like hacking and less like just using a search engine

No, they will not do anything until AFTER the Olympics are done. They have no balls or backbone.

Thankfully, the article links to the original source documentation:

"注册"
"2006年全国体操运动员上报注册表第 页"
"2007年度体操运动员注册汇总表"
"序号","姓名","性别","出生日期","注册单位"
etc.

Now I'm really convinced!

You mean the girl with the forehead that starts at her ears. You could land a 747 on that farker. Although it would provide an ample target upon completion.

Try living in the Sunset District and riding the Muni everyday. You'll hug every Mexican you see after that.

Is now a good time to review typical Chinese attitudes towards non-Chinese people? Especially towards black people?

Sure. I got some free time. Go ahead.
 
2008-08-20 03:47:57 PM
On the flipside:

The chinese word for this/that/the is tsga or nga, pronounced, you guessed it, "nubian"

So those chinese stutters have a real unique experience with our two Antiguan employees.

How do we verify their age? Can we cut them open and count the rings?

Dang right...try doing that crap when your 20+ and have boobs and hips. Good god, it pays to be small and scrawny.

GavinTheAlmighty: Of course, there are exceptions to every rule.

Gymnasts as a whole used to be a bit older, and they weren't any worse. Also college gymnasts tend to be no worse, and sometimes beter than what you see at the Olympics. And they tend to be much more muscled than the girls at the Olympics.

If what you are trying to say is that they grow boobies and get top-heavy when they reach puberty, then yes, I agree 100%.
Pretty sure I wouldn't use the word decline though.

the article says it best on the blog page...

the MAIN issue at hand isnt an underage gymnast competing, its the Chinese government going ABOVE AND BEYOND to alter records and basically censor the media

I once thought I'd found an exception to this. I thought to myself, "surely in 'The Grim Darkness Of The Far Future, There is Only War' would mean that there is no time for anything else." So I googled it. I was wrong.
