Russia's Alexei Nemov just got ROBBED on the high bar! How could he possibly have gotten such a low score? And Paul Hamm gets the same score as the Italian who won gold (the Italian won on tiebreakers)... what?! Does Hamm have something damaging on the judges?
The gymnastic judging has been horrid in Athens.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Horrible judging
Shows how ridiculous judged sports are in the Olympics."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Dude, judged sports are the backbone of the Olympics. It's their home.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

But I don't like the vast majority of them.
BTW, is it considered "gay" to sometimes enjoy women's figure skating?"You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Then don't watch them .
The Olympics are the home of the 'judged' sports. It's where they have a huge stage.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Hmm. I don't feel like coming up with a good response, because I'm kind of trolling here.
I think synchronized swimming and ice dancing and stuff need to go."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

It is a travesty that two ice dancers, with a 5 minute routine that beats out only a few other pairs from the few countries that do the sport, can win a Gold and up their country's medal count, while a large team of soccer players has to play a dozen games, and compete with almost every country in the games just to get the same reward."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

BTW I know the grammar probably sucks there, but it's late at night and I'm sleepy."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Why? Can the soccer players do the same ice dancing routine? Different requirements for different medals. And what does medal count matter anyway? Me thinks you don't get the goal of the Olympics .“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
