Mikayla (sp?) botching her vault was shocking -- especially when nobody was sticking them. <br />My favorite event was women's beach volleyball. Misty and Carrie were just tremendous!Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138545573425777067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29640480.post-58922899019238610572012-08-09T13:39:14.696-07:002012-08-09T13:39:14.696-07:00they blocked the clip now.

She had a 50 meter section that was faster than Lochte. Couldn't be she just worked her butt off and being tiny to boot could fly on top of the water and at an age that can have big changes in performances could do it.... Anyway I just thought it was crap that Costas picks her out of the crowd of all big winners. I read a bunch of the Chinese swimmers were training in Australia with the Ausie swimmers coach (China paid three times what the Ausies pay him) They had a good time doing it - less stress. Seemed to help some of them.<br /><br />Yes, that was an amazing high bar performance I saw last night - 3 release moves in a row! Don't think I ever saw that before. <br /><br />I heard the Russian gymnasts have a lot of ballet background - their floor exercises were beautiful.<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing Felix - USA - blow away the competition in the 200 tonight.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441344447548078615noreply@blogger.com
