I can’t wait for Aly Raisman to burn Indianapolis to the ground and start her own national governing body for gymnastics from her house
Fan Yilin’s toe point on her piked Gienger is why she won

The only thing I like about Ashton is her dog, and I would be perfectly content with her not making another team. But...it’s not that simple. If a Worlds team was being formed on January 1st when the new seniors become seniors, no she probably wouldn’t be on the team, but the next Worlds team isn’t being formed for another 11ish months. It’s a little premature to say that she’ll definitively not be on another team because a lot can happen within that time.
Pauline’s D score was within the range of the other finalists’ D scores (5.4-5.7). Ashton’s was a clear outlier. Ashton’s usual D score was between .5-1 point lower than everyone else’s. I don’t think people would be talking about Ashton’s D score if all of the other competitors’ were in the mid-5s.
My favorite thing about her is that when you watch her, you can see how she could be capable of more.
With all the upcoming seniors and their potential (and current abilities), I think it's more than just Simone that will challenge Ragan next year...
I think it was the tight judging that wasn't allowing higher scores, not the code.
God I can’t wait until she competes the full-out.

It makes more sense to take the person who won selection camp the week before Worlds than it does to take someone who came in 2nd over a month ago and supposedly didn't do as well at camp...
There's a reason they pick the team right before Worlds and not after Nationals. Having some misses in podium training isn't the end of the World.
we could have had songsong and morgi together at worlds n now I’m crying gbye
The problem with that is that they'd be exerting themselves for an additional 30 seconds, likely resulting in something suffering--dance/choreography or tumbling difficulty. We'd probably see a lot of roll around on the floor, moving slowly and arm waving, etc. to catch their breath and save energy for other things, or we'd see a couple easier passes.
According to the GymCastic interview, Maggie Haney didn’t really want Riley to compete at Classics but Valeri wanted to see her because she was “so new”…
If Maggie didn't want her to compete, she should have advocated for the best interest of her athlete.
Also, how is Riley "so new"? She competed at American Cup and Jesolo...it's not like she hadn't competed yet as a senior. I'm not sure how competing when she's not ready would be any benefit to her even if she hadn't done Jesolo and American Cup.

I’ve been caught, arrest me, send me to gymnastics jail
Did you know you can’t be a fan of something you haven’t physically done? I tried being a fan of NASA and they were like “bitch have you ever even calculated the trajectory of a Saturn flyover?” :(
This is also why I couldn’t be a Hanson fan in the 90s. They were like “umm are you even our brother lol” rude
I’m so glad that every baseball fan has played baseball. And football fans have all played football. NBA fans are all basketball players.
Who (aside from Shawn Johnson and a bunch of uneducated four year fans) is saying this? I haven't seen it on tumblr or twitter. Are people on YouTube saying this? YouTube fans are notoriously absurd.
