Does this mean we can get rid of Phelps from Subway commercials? Please.
He's going to be replaced by Missy Franklin.

Some reason I can't watch the replay of the gymnastics finals or swimming competitions online? How do I do that?

Wow holy fuck, I wish I saw that live...
Easily the best vault I've ever seen. Not as dramatic as Kerri Strug's one-foot stick but definitely a much cleaner landing. Beautiful, graceful, god damn. See ya Men's gymnastics, you just got took.

I'd love it if Charles Barkley could be a 2nd color commentator on all events. You know he'd have something creative to say about the scoring of that vault.

Anybody got video of that vault?
YES! haha. We had sooooo much fun in that thread! We called them 'comedy tokens' because Phelps laughs at their hideous shameful bronze color.
Anyone remember the Gold/Silver/Bronze names that were created here in lieu of Phelps' improbable run in 2008?
Gold:
Silver:
Bronze:
Unfortunately they don't have quite the same significance this time around...

Those are held for NBC prime time. They are on now.
The judge's reaction to McKayla's vault.

I don't remember seeing that in my BBC stream. Let me re-check to GIF IT.

Distinct lack of balance being displayed by the Russians on the balance beam.

Doubt it after today, but I wouldn't mind. She's got more personality that Lochte and Phelps combined.

You could probably blame the lack of a perfect score on the stupid judging change that happened back in 06. Most gymnasts were pissed that they eliminated the perfect 10 for a more nitpicky scoring system.

Cotdam, Kerri Strug was 16 years ago. Currant gymnasts were born around that time. I'm old.

Yes, I believe we referred to France as 'Phrance" for the rest of the week, because Phelps now owned the country. lol

Anybody see Mustafina give her coach the hand with a sarcastic look when he tried to hug her earlier? Her coach: "She used to be a little devil but has gotten better." Yikes, if that's the case I'd hate to see how much more of a witchy little diva she was before.

They'll all be crying soon.

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. 12.466!
Yeah they all pretty much all started crying after I posted that. Hard not to feel bad when you know they have a camera shoved in their face too.

So... will this knock them out of the medals? (No spoilers, lol) They might be in Comedy Token territory, they might not even get there.

A couple of golds. Put it on NBC, they're showing some events now.
That was depressing.

She'll be in Siberia soon after that routine.
I think they were really close but with that 12 score they probably lost a whole point or two... but I am completely guessing.

Huh? You realize how big of a gap there was between Russia/US and the rest of the field right?
...what? lol
