Earguy: Laughing at the old guy telling dad to sit down, ya wanker!

I'm surprised he didn't turn around and say "that's my girl, I'll sit down when I want".

soaboutthat: /lots of the girls from all countries seem to be have bounce problems.

Think it's just huge coincidence more than anything. They've had time to practice on the floor, so it's not like it's unfamiliar to them.

Nerves. Jordan hit like she was fired out of a cannon, and faltered.
Aly just absorbed the impact and made it look good.

Also, Aly is 18 so I don't feel super pervy watching her like some of the other girls

Catalina Bonor gives me a ponor.

Or something like that.

slatterie		2012-08-07 11:03:32 PM

Gottabextraordinary: Where the shiat did they find .9 of a point to deduct?! Gah.

Gotta leave rooms for the rest......so everyone has a chance.
/if Alyssa gets silver there will be a riot

The Romanian has a nice ass

PiperArrow		2012-08-07 11:03:42 PM

Wait, they allow adults to compete in women's gymnastics?

Studson		2012-08-07 11:04:24 PM

Ponor should appeal

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:04:27 PM

Poner: "Take away my bronze medal, will ya!"

But you know they'll give it to the little girl. Its what they do in Olympic gymnastics.

JerseyTim		2012-08-07 11:04:36 PM

I would watch a show that is just Mustafina going around staring daggers at people.

aba		2012-08-07 11:04:42 PM

Can we stop with the Men's gymnastics commercials? All they have done so far is ONE bronze medal.

And this Frankenweenie movie looks terrible.

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:05:02 PM

Aly's taking home the heavy metal.
Good for her.

DamnYankees		2012-08-07 11:05:06 PM

Seems like a low score. And no, my opinion has nothing to do with the fact that Ponor is clearly the most attractive gymnast. Nothing at all.

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:05:08 PM

Damn, that is low. I didn't want her to beat Aly (gotta be loyal!) but her routine was IMPRESSIVE. I like that she actually *danced*.

Kenny B		2012-08-07 11:05:40 PM

Ponor: Hey you kids Get off my floor!

WhyteRaven74		2012-08-07 11:05:41 PM

PiperArrow: Wait, they allow adults to compete in women's gymnastics?

The oldest competitor in women's gymnastics this Olympics is 36.

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:05:54 PM

Gangsta one-sleeved leotard there.

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:06:30 PM

Ferrari backed up, then backed up again so close I thought she might inch out of bounds.

there their theyre		2012-08-07 11:06:47 PM

Last of the mohicans, magua will eat your heart or something

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:07:02 PM

She was good.

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:07:52 PM

"MUSTAFINA."
"Ooohooo, say it again!"
"MUSTAFINA!"
"ooohooo!"
"MUSTAFINA MUSTAFINA MUSTAFINA!"

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:08:07 PM

bextraordinary: Gangsta one-sleeved leotard there.

I'd like to take that Ferrari for a spin.

PaulieattheTap		2012-08-07 11:08:36 PM

She did great. But why were the commentators quiet thru her routine?
Did they not watch?

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:09:05 PM

I actually love Thomas Dolby, and I hate this Target ad.

Studson		2012-08-07 11:09:08 PM

Sad eyes mc Romanov is the only one who has a routine to beat Aly? Assuming Ferrari didn't?

there their theyre		2012-08-07 11:09:26 PM

I hope Mustafina fails hard then murders a judge, she looks very capable of doing it

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:09:44 PM

Earguy: I actually love Thomas Dolby, and I hate this Target ad.

Poooooorly done.

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:10:18 PM

there their theyre: I hope Mustafina fails hard then murders a judge, she looks very capable of doing it

I can just see her going all gymkata on their asses, snapping necks between her legs.

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:10:19 PM

Yeah. McDonald's oatmeal.

/Not in a billion years.

NeilJam42		2012-08-07 11:10:36 PM

Too bad this girl isn't in it tonight.

Quick jerk at work?

She sounds like someone who would call their husband a pussy in World War II for coming home alive rather than fighting hard enough to die by a German bayonet.

I mean that as a compliment, btw.

I'd fap to that

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:12:19 PM

Mustafa looks scared. Can you feel the love tonight?

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:13:03 PM

Half reverse Kegel...

It's epic music like before jet Li enters a room of twenty guys and kicks all their asses

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:14:07 PM

Wonder what she looks like with no makeup on...

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:14:18 PM

Glittery eye shadow is a two-point deduction.

Earguy		2012-08-07 11:14:39 PM

She brought it. Why are the announcers saying she doesn't have a chance? Level of difficulty?

DamnYankees		2012-08-07 11:14:54 PM

Nice thumbs up to Ali. Class move for a Commie.

there their theyre		2012-08-07 11:15:15 PM

Earguy: She brought it. Why are the announcers saying she doesn't have a chance? Level of difficulty?

Because they have a death wish

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:15:29 PM

DamnYankees: Nice thumbs up to Ali. Class move for a Commie.

Yeah, I thought that was nice - unexpected, because Mustafina's depicted as such a shrew.

DamnYankees		2012-08-07 11:15:37 PM

Earguy: She brought it. Why are the announcers saying she doesn't have a chance? Level of difficulty?

Basically. Ali's degree of difficulty was very high and she nailed it. So even if someone else was perfect, their degrees of difficulty just arent high enough.

DamnYankees		2012-08-07 11:16:13 PM

bextraordinary: DamnYankees: Nice thumbs up to Ali. Class move for a Commie.

Yeah, I thought that was nice - unexpected, because Mustafina's depicted as such a shrew.

Is she actually depicted that way? I thought it was just a Fark joke.

there their theyre		2012-08-07 11:16:14 PM

This last Romanian is hot too.

HotIgneous Intruder		2012-08-07 11:16:20 PM

bextraordinary: DamnYankees: Nice thumbs up to Ali. Class move for a Commie.

Yeah, I thought that was nice - unexpected, because Mustafina's depicted as such a shrew.

A shrew is a cage full of shrews.

bextraordinary		2012-08-07 11:16:40 PM

Earguy: She brought it. Why are the announcers saying she doesn't have a chance? Level of difficulty?

I assume so, yeah. The difficulty score really makes things complicated. It's not just about nailing the routine, it has to be difficult enough AND well-executed so nobody else can catch you. I can see how it can be controversial. Seems to add an extra subjective layer to the judging.
