Gabby
And a nice comeback win for Kato
And a nice comeback win for Kato
I missed it. Is there somewhere online I can read a PBP of the meet? I saw video of Gabby's beam (which was awesome) on YouTube but I heard she also killed it on bars.
I agree about Maggie and couldn't think of a better team alternate if I tried. The floor routine and the wolf turns on beam are not the business. But she hit, and if the Amanar looks good by Trials I'd probably take her.
After watching today's competition, I wonder how realistic Aly Raisman's chances are in making the Olympic team. I did think it was odd that she didn't compete here - but then again Kocian and Skinner weren't there either.
I don't care for Aly's gymnastics but I think she's still got a good shot at the Olympic team. Marta tends to like her.
I think they only person who could have bumped Kocian was Kyla, but with Kyla gone, it seems that Kocian is a lock for the team. There isn't really anyone else who can really fill what Kyla/Maddy bring to the table (bars). If anyone is to bump Kocian, they're going to have to decent on bars and also be great on beam.
I felt that way about Gabby the entire competition. Barely a smile with a I don't care attitude. I don't need my gymnast to be all unicorns and rainbows, but if they do a good routine, smile about it, wave to the crowd, look like it means something.I wish Gabby could show even just a hint of personality on floor. It's obviously in there, but the way she performs now makes it look like she just doesn't give a crap.

I haven't watched NBC's coverage yet but apparently they did not even show Ellie Black on floor and showed the "final results" on the screen without her name there, showing Tinkler in third. WTF?
Maybe that's why she looked so grim during the American Cup
