A lot of NCAA gymnasts tease elite returns for NIL money, but some are obviously serious. Who do you think is really serious (excluding previous Olympians)?

I have redistributed world champs QF points from bars after African Champs. Many of these gymnasts will qualify by other means but here is the new list. KAIUMOVA Milana HRIBAR Lucija KUZMENKOVA Ulyana KUNDRAT Barbora ROSHCHINA Liudmila IORIO Elisa JIANG Shuting YANG Fanyuwei

I thought about retiring this but it feels like it could be the beginning of an interesting year...

Friend: "I can't remember the last time a 24 hour period of gymnastics has given me so much whiplash." Me: "You forgot when Gage was decertified?" Her: "Fair. No one's ran off to France just yet" Me: "It's all fun and games until someone ends up in rural France."

This is what I have on my schedule for gymnastics in the coming week.

The teams you think are liberal and have the right politics have people who are voting against your interests. The teams that you think are full of fascists have people who are in the process of growing and changing as is normal in college.

Would you consider the USA sending a 12 year old on an assignment where her score can not count for anything "for international experience" financial mismanagement of their program budget?

The American Cup format is terrible. It feels like USAG has been annoyed that strategic mistakes lead to them doing worse at DTB Pokal and Swiss Cup in recent years and so they decided to try and remove that aspect. Heavily doubt this is anything like the olympic format.

GAGE teammates have confirmed the Crains moved to France a month ago. The rumor is Avoine but I have not seen that confirmed. I'm seeing a lot of people wishcasting a country change but I think people are better off not speculating until they say something.

You mean "Colonial order", I suppose?

.... how do you not know this is offensive. It's not the 1980s anymore.

"Western order" You mean incorrect order

The chinese team didn’t come to play. Someone needs to correct the order of their names

I’m looking forward to see if Malone Brody or Richard Fred will be attending. All names presented using eastern naming conventions

I've started adding domestic rhythmic scores from major RG countries to my score tracker. Here is my reasoning:

I think @USAGym needs to answer some questions about why someone under investigation by Safe Sport was a member of the International Elite Committee which was writing the rules and policies of the elite program.

This feels appropriate to reshare at the moment

This week we're looking at a how WOGA and GAGE stack up against one of their peers decodingthedismount.substack.com/p/the-realit...

This one is.....a lot 😬 decodingthedismount.substack.com/p/the-realit...

Aaaand people have already decided that because these coaches are considered two of The Good Ones, sure they're not responsible for any injuries under their watch and this information is meaningless

This ended up being so, so much bigger than I thought 🫠 decodingthedismount.substack.com/p/the-realit...

Thank you Rebeca Andrade for your services to history and sport.

And Skinner is claiming she "qualified" for the 2016 Olympic team and was "moved" to alternate. I hope USAG never honors her for anything in the future.

Me: "Skinner is claiming she was removed from the 2016 Olympic team because of DEI." Friend: "If by DEI you mean 'can do bars'" Me: "Bars, the true Woke Apparatus."

All Japan Team Championships, Chinese National Games (not including event finals), Bundesliga, Latvian WAG Championships all updated into the spreadsheet. Unsorted for the moment.

"If Melnikova is disqualified does that mean Skye gets a medal?" Do people who say this kind of thing realize they are giving ammunition to Russian voices that say the ban is about eliminating competition for US athletes?

It will always baffle me how easily people will believe that the poor, the sick, the marginalized, and the immigrant are the cause of all their problems, rather than the people in the most powerful positions in their country who refuse to fix problems and exploit them instead.

The MLR body cam footage is exactly what you would expect it to be.

USAG's IEC Minutes say they will not be lowering the senior QF score to Champs. But also not really. They want 24 athletes at champs and will fill the remaining spots by AA ranking after 52 with a minimum of 51.5. So in practice they lowered it.
