[Desi]

That's pretty much all the US commentators are talking about. :lol

hell yeah. they are like "these kids".

Doesn't England have a 14 year old diver?

What makes it obvious is that all their gear are packed in Hannah Montana gym bags.

oh my god really? Must see this.

Chinese President to this last gymnast: "Another log for the fire..."

She's...fucking dead

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

China is failing? Their brittle child hands are crumbling? SOME ONE UPDATE ME WITH EVRYTHING!

 

[Mugen]

I read an article on nbc where some coach on the US team was fustrated about that. Apprently the rules state 16 is the youngest and he claims that those girls are clearly younger but they have passports that "prove" they are old enough to compete.

Fuck what America says, they'll say anything to discredit China. They don't have any solid proof. It's a known fact Asian girls quite often look much younger then they are.

she fell because she's too old

True...but did you have to phrase it quite like that?

"Fuck what America says"?

 

[Hootie]

Damn she still got 15.724 !?!?

They probably felt bad that the kid is going to be sent off to some rice farm to do slave labor for the rest of her life.

 

[neptunes]

I call SHENANIGANS!

Seriously. America isnt the only people complaining.

Anyway, here is the article

What a difference:

American Gymnasts Montage: Driving, listening to iPods, using laptops
Chinese Gymnasts Montage: Getting their diapers changed, having the birds and the bees explained to them, clapping at Dora the Explorer clips.

 

[eznark]

Bela Karolyi drops knowledge:

"They are using half-people," Karolyi said. "One of the biggest frustrations is, what arrogance. These people think we are stupid.

half-people, awesome.

 

[Mugen]

China's dive was terrible, yet they clinched gold? WTF?

Yeah, your right China dived HORRIBLY and they don't deserve the gold.

At least the Chinese team has been fed a very well balanced diet of dog meat over those years!

They probably felt bad that the kid is going to be sent off to some rice farm to do slave labor for the rest of her life.

You're clearly not biased against China.

 

[MechDX]

One of the American gymnasts need to do a routine to "America! FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!"

 

[woodchuck]

watch the US women's gymnastics for some epic lulz. they sucked apparently

 

[BobFromPikeCreek]

That chinese fall was kinda sad. I don't know shit about gymnastics and even I could tell she was amazing otherwise.

 

[Formless]

Fuck what America says, they'll say anything to discredit China. They don't have any solid proof. It's a known fact Asian girls quite often look much younger then they are.

Not that young. And I've been hanging around Asian people for all my life.

 

[giga]

[DancingJesus]

Yikes... not so good. Pretty boring routine.

 

[Keylime]

Nadda, pretty sure this is delayed.

US Swimming will be live tonight.

 

[NetMapel]

US got high 14 for one mistake out of bound on the matt. Chinese got mid-15 for a mistake of falling off the poles... WHY ?

 

[pollo]

ANKLE? DID THAT STOP STRUGG IN 96? KIDS TODAY ARE SUCH PANSIES

 

[Kifimbo]

Fuck what America says, they'll say anything to discredit China. They don't have any solid proof. It's a known fact Asian girls quite often look much younger then they are.

They not only look like 12 years old, they act like 12 years old.

 

[SolidSnakex]

isnt this live?

Nope, it's several hours old now.

 

[methodman]

What time is Phelps coming up? Living on the west coast sucks so I gotta look for a stream online and NBColympics.com isn't going to have it

[Gamer @ Heart]

Apprently the womens squad bombed a bit the other day but still managed to pass to the next round. It was on the net yesterday so maybe they are showing it now?

 

[Hootie]

Yeah, your right China dived HORRIBLY and they don't deserve the gold.

You're clearly not biased against China.

u mad? I'm just hoping China fails so the US can get some medals.

 

[woodchuck]

truth. they should watch the 96 olympics every night before they go to bed

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

Time for the China haters to get their comeuppance. Seriously, you guys are laughing at these Chinese girls for falling? Geez.

 

[fistfulofmetal]

This chick is pretty hot.

10 EST

Asian people always look younger than they actually are. Whenever I go to Taiwan and see the high school kids there, they look like they're 12, no exaggeration.

How do they look younger than they actually are? Caucasians age faster. Blacks age probably fastest physically. There's basic genetic differences between the races and unless you use one race as the standard, they look exactly how they are supposed to.

Not to mention they're all around 4' 10'', which makes them look even younger.

Time for the China haters to get their comeuppance. Seriously, you guys are laughing at these Chinese girls for falling? Geez.

The girl who fell off the uneven bars, He Kexin, still made the event finals. Her score was still the 6th highest even after deducting .8.

 

[SolidSnakex]

The US is bombing.

 

[typhonsentra]

What a boring routine.

 

[MIMIC]

Damn. She bounced WAY out

 

[woodchuck]

Time for the China haters to get their comeuppance. Seriously, you guys are laughing at these Chinese girls for falling? Geez.

but i'm pretty sure they're all 16!

 

[DancingJesus]

What the hell is up with all the hand motions?

 

[K.Jack]

Jeez they are sucking hard out here.

 

[MIMIC]

Time for the China haters to get their comeuppance. Seriously, you guys are laughing at these Chinese girls for falling? Geez.

I laugh when ANYONE falls :lol

 

[Mugen]

They not only look like 12 years old, they act like 12 years old.

They act 12? Are you a psychic phd psychology major? You can tell the exact age of somebody is by watching them do gymnastics? Again, everybody knows Asian girls often look a lot younger then they are.

 

[eznark]

Time for the China haters to get their comeuppance. Seriously, you guys are laughing at these Chinese girls for falling? Geez.

To be fair, I'm laughing at anyone who falls. It's like NASCAR and figure skating, I come for the fail.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

The US is bombing.

Its what we do!

WOOT WOOT

But seriously though, if this is last nights footage, then at least we know they passed. There is an article about it here:

http://www.nbcolympics.com/gymnastics/news/newsid=190388.html#u+s+women+struggle+through+prelims

Its the same competition right?
