As long as Ragan Smith is still doing that grossly cutesy FX routine, I will not be able to pay attention to anything that might be good about her gymnastics.
Floor is not her main event. Beam is.

I understand that, but every time I see her on any event, all I can picture is the cringeworthy floor choreography.Floor is not her main event. Beam is.
The United States Olympic Committee board of directors asked USA Gymnastics President Steve Penny to resign, according to a USOC official who spoke to the USA TODAY Network on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter.
The recommendation came during a USOC board meeting in Los Angeles.
After that meeting, in a teleconference with reporters, USOC board Chairman Larry Probst would not tell reporters what the board recommended. He said, "It's not appropriate for us to tell you what that consensus point of view is until USA Gymnastics has had a chance to consider our input."
Probst said the board gave its recommendation to USA Gymnastics board chairman Paul Parilla. USOC officials said USA Gymnastics was not given a deadline to answer, but the board hopes it will be "sooner rather than later."
So - did John Orozco retire? I don't see anything official, but I'm wondering from the comments.
Are there still going to be six member teams for Worlds even with the Olympics going down to four-member teams plus two specialists?
It's like they're forever finding ways to make sure the same countries don't dominate by chipping away at the team event only to have it not really result in that.
Colorado Springs would be a good place for the girls. High altitude training could give them endurance. However, the men train up there, so I hope there won't be any business getting both teams in trouble (i.e. affairs, STDs or pregnancies).https://usagym.org/pages/post.html?PostID=20263&prog=h
USAG has backed out of buying the Karolyi ranch. The statement says they will continue to lease until they find another facility.
Yeah, that's true. I'm not saying I support the change. I'm just trying to find something positive in it because I generally feel like it's a shitty change. I would always rather see more gymnasts get to go to Worlds.
