    apparently you probably did not watch the gymnastics component of the olympics. the girls's gymnastics judging president had to come again over and reprimand the judges for their outrageously low scoring of the U.S. women's gymnasts. that's the only reason we've been given any medals. Even the expert olympic gymnasts who have been commentating mentioned the U.S. scores have been amazingly low, and the chinese language scores have been amazingly extreme and that they have been in and watching gymnastics for their finished life. purely via fact the Judges are foreign places to China does not advise the chinese language olympic officers did not bribe or threaten them. I advise they in all probability beat their athletes so...... purely via fact the U.S. could concentration on the activities with the main medals would not make it unfair. surely, we dominate in very just about all activities and those we don't we a minimum of get silver or bronze. i'm a sportsman yet I despise cheating. If that's honest, i'm going to provide props. the only unhappy component is those youthful women are being placed by all this controversy and in all probability sense that they are regarded at as cheaters particularly reason they understand they're underage. those females won't be able to sense the delight they might in the event that they might of gained honest and worst of all, in spite of each and every thing their not elementary artwork, they may well be stripped of their medals.

    -all people that competed against phelps- excluding alain bernard.

    -shawn johnson who is perpetually sunny and gracious.

    -tom daley and his diving partner

    -the divers, men and women of all nations.

    -ryan lochte, who has always been put behind michael phelps.

    why are all the people who put nastia and shawn getting thumbs-down?

    spearman of usa the one who ran the 200m men because depite being disqualified nd robbed of his bronz he still congratulated bolt and danced with him also bridget foster hilton of jamaica who after the 100m hurdles was ran went to console one of her apponents who fell at the start of the race

    That guy, Spearmon, who lifted Bolt by the legs and then bumped his chest to congratulate him on his victories. That's real sportmanlike conduct: wanting to win, but still being able to be happy for someone else.

    Bravo, Spearmon, bravo!

    shawn johnson for sure she wasn't upset when Nastia won the gold in the all around. Even though she deserved it more (in my opinion)
