Posted November 6, 200520 yr comment_4087 Almost time for Worlds. It starts less than 3 weeks away. It is in Australia this year and if you pay $9.95 you can watch it live online. Or watch it and rhythmic both at http://www.wcsn.com/index.jsp live.
November 6, 200520 yr Author comment_4096 Not really. If you're going to be able to see one anywhere else, it is most likely not going to be professional quality.
November 23, 200520 yr Author comment_4353 I see worlds isnt even being televised apparently. Unless it is on Saturday, December 3'rd at night during this memphis grizzlies game which is shown here. I highly doubt that though. So basically that makes watching it online even more worth it because apparently either you will see unprofessional coverage or nothing at all unless you watch the official one online. This shows what NBC thinks of the current gymnasts. They obviously don't think they are worth watching. I don't like many myself, but I know many are great and NBC is stupid. I really just want Nastia to do well where I can laugh at Megan.
November 23, 200520 yr comment_4361 so not even espn is showing worlds is what you are saying? even though i am not really into gymnastics right now....except for my own and my teams. honestly i am not really following worlds, which really makes me sad but right now i am just like blah. oh an nbc barely ever shows worlds...it was just in 2003 they did usually its ESPN
November 24, 200520 yr comment_4369 Hahaha, I'm paying the $10, Tomita is going to be AMAZING and I really like Rizzo and Jeffris. I'm really excited actually. Urgh, but the transfer isn't working too well, did anyone else buy it? Did they get the confirmation e-mail?
November 24, 200520 yr Author comment_4376 I would have got it, but I just am annoyed Hollie isn't in it, Shayla is stilla junior, Carly retired, etc.
November 24, 200520 yr comment_4389 Congrats to Hiroyuki Tomita!! NEW WORLD CHAMP in AA!!!! I really like him! So I am happy Todd FELL APART!!!!! TWO 7's and 21st place...tear.
November 24, 200520 yr comment_4391 Ahhh!!! I've liked Tomita since last year and he definately deserved it! <3 I just wish I could freaking get the streaming to work so I could enjoy his performance!!! Poor Todd, the only thing I saw of him was his disappointment onn high bar in prelims and than the finals standings after yesterday, I still love him though. Jason! Urgh, if you have ten dollars will you do this and try to get it to work because I honestly can't and my dad ordered it for me but I'm at my mom's and he's at friends for dinner tonight and I don't want to e-mail the company or call since it's on my dad's card!
November 25, 200520 yr Author comment_4399 Hey, I was gone until now. Why wouldnt it work though? Did you ever get the confirmation email? If you never got it, it was probably that yahoo or whatever email addy you were using thought it was spam and put it in bulk mail, spam, or w/e folder. What exactly is the problem? I am not sure if it gave you the code or if you never got it. Or w/e it gives you for ordering it. Wow this sucks if you still havent got it to work. you were supposed tot alk to me last night late. ahhhhhhhhh. I was bored too. Anyway just let me know the whole deal. edit: lol wow bad # of points for you there, Megan.
November 25, 200520 yr comment_4402 CHELLSLIE IS THE CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY YAY YAY YAY I AM SO HAPPY FOR HER SHES AWESOME!!!!!! I LOVE HER!! WAY TO GO!!! Nastia gets 2nd, Monette Russo (AUS) gets 3rd.
November 25, 200520 yr Author comment_4403 lmao at least Nastia finished second. You kept saying she was going to "suck". Wow, I am surprised 2 Americans would finish 1 and 2, when everyone says the Americans arent as good as others. *cough* Anyway Chelssie rocks. And you people should be using the spoiler tag for winners probably, but doesnt matter since I doubt anyone will read this who doesnt wanna know. Plus it apparently isnt on tv.
November 26, 200520 yr comment_4406 I'm watching it right now, I finally got it to work Jason and when I couldn't I just got frustrated and went to bed. But WOW Chellsie did really good but I honestly thought Nastia owned. It's not over yet but someone said Chells only won by .001... I would've given it to Nast because she did amazing on bars and beam so far, she hasn't gone on floor yet. Her vaults... that's what killed her!!! Russo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's SO great I fell in love with her gym, and she's such a fighter! And the crowd was so cute whenever she did her thing. It was oh so cute, but Tweddle did AMAZING! She did so well!!! Memmel kicked though! She did so good! I didn't know she was trying to get a skill named after her, she stuck it DANG cold, she did awesome! Ahh!!! I'm so close to tears now!!! Nast hit SO hard!!! I honestly thought she had it, I feel so bad too because she could have pulled out a kinda wobbly Y1 1/2!!! But I'm so close to tears because I'm so very happy for Chellsie!!! The look on her face and her dad's was priceless!! Just so good, he was so proud and she was so pleased! It was great.
November 26, 200520 yr Author comment_4410 I just think it is humorous Megan said Americans are all "overscored" and that an American wouldnt win Worlds. Not only did one win it, but the top 2 were. lol And she got mad at me and said I "know so little" about gymnastics by saying an American could win it. *sigh*
November 26, 200520 yr comment_4412 wow way to quote me super wrong. i NEVER said an american wouldnt win worlds. NEVER! i said that scoring in the USA is always higher then what the intl judges give...and I am correct. wow jason, way to take what i said and totally reword it...makes me feel just peachy.
November 26, 200520 yr Author comment_4413 you're welcome. lol I dont feel like looking it up if the convo was stored. But I think you said it. Who knows.
November 26, 200520 yr comment_4416 Wow! I just checked the results for the AA (I have had no time for anything anymore. :sleep: Oh well. ). Congrats to Chellsie! That was such a close win! .001 is insane! Congrats to Nastia as well for doing so great; she must feel terrible for losing by that close of a margin though. I feel for her. Hopefully the Americans do well on the EF's! Good luck to all of them. Can't wait to download some videos of the whole meets!
November 27, 200520 yr comment_4420 Alicia got 3rd on vault, (Cheng Fei won) Nast won bars, Chells got silver! so congrats to them!!

November 28, 200520 yr comment_4444 wow way to quote me super wrong. i NEVER said an american wouldnt win worlds. NEVER! i said that scoring in the USA is always higher then what the intl judges give...and I am correct. wow jason, way to take what i said and totally reword it...makes me feel just peachy. Megan is absolutely correct in saying this. Although the girls did super well, their scores were significantly lower than the scores they got for similar routines within the US.
November 28, 200520 yr Author comment_4446 That isn't all she said back then though, but I will just leave it at that. lol
November 28, 200520 yr comment_4448 Okay, who cares? Worlds was amazing! The whole men's competition pretty much bummed me out though. Thorton didn't do his potential, Gatson messed up his routine, but I loved the MAG FX competition and rings were alright but not Jotchev! Vault was AMAZING and I usually don't like it but it was so good this year! Plus Dragulescu won! Yay! Pommels, parallel bars, and high bar were all boring, bleh, and HB usually my favorite! All of WAG was great! I was happy to see Immogen, I don't remember her last name, do vault. I don't think I've ever seen a Brit in a vaulting event final. And Cheng Fei did mind-blowingly great! She was fantastic and good for Chustiovina! Age 30 and still doing elite gym AFTER having a child? GEEZ! Bars was great! The Japanese girl was amazing and I was sad she didn't medal. Beam was hilarious! Ponor's face! Wow, and Chellsie and Nastia both did wonderful! Floor was on good because the Americans won the top two spots but overall it wasn't hugely impressive. All in all I thought it was a really wonderful World! Especially for the US women! If you really want to see total coverage, you can PM me and watch the archives off of WCSN.
November 28, 200520 yr comment_4450 Me thinks Chells was better then Nast on beam. Thats all I will say. Edited November 28, 200520 yr by ilovesurvivor07
November 29, 200520 yr Author comment_4451 You have always made it clear you like Chelssie more though. I am surprised Chellsie did so good, frankly. I like her possibly most of anyone but she sure doesnt look in gymnastics shape to me. Of course I havent paid that close attention or seen her in person, but anyways....
