She was a rock during the championships, she contributed good scores (her UB: good for romanian standards) in all 3 event she competed. And I hate the 2 per country rule more and more. The girl qualified to 2 EF. With all that mess on BB she could easily grab that bronze and she could challenge for the bronze on floor too.christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603955335874071755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353917441739196825.post-44152602073569574492012-05-13T16:19:27.619-07:002012-05-13T16:19:27.619-07:00Again, My apologies!

I think you mean Erika Fasana?<br /><br />Thanks for getting up some videos - I was upset that I couldn't watch event finals today (there's only one television at my university halls and a guy was already watching the Spanish Grand Prix on it ... ugh) so it's great to see these after only getting tweets all afternoon!Christianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640799404118833834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353917441739196825.post-90368501069290485782012-05-13T15:38:27.856-07:002012-05-13T15:38:27.856-07:00Damn it: Thanks!

Yeah I think I might eat my words about Mustafina...I really hope she CAN challenge, the deeper the field, the better it is for us spectators! I too am finding Komova's nerves a bit disconcerting.<br /><br />Smell of the sea: Thanks for bringing it to my attention! This is exactly why I should proof read more. I was watching Boginskaya videos earlier in the day and it must have crept into my brain when I was writing that. Glad you liked the post besides that!LloydMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15341630229725069671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353917441739196825.post-21729751655488914762012-05-13T14:51:51.725-07:002012-05-13T14:51:51.725-07:00Very interesting post.

Julie Croket is Belgian, not Belorussian, however (certainly if the screaming fans at the championships were anything to go by!)Smell of the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895506535322964924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353917441739196825.post-68429896309656162602012-05-13T10:41:23.758-07:002012-05-13T10:41:23.758-07:00Great post!

I too am a huge Ponor fan, and am so excited to see her back at the top of her game.<br /><br />I do think, however, that Mustafina is still going to be a top AA contender. Was she in top form at this event? No. But for an athlete of her caliber, 12 weeks is going to go a long way as far as polishing and cleaning up her routines, as it looks like aside from the Amanar, she has her skills basically back. Komova, on the other hand, is worrying me with her nervous energy on beam. Has she really hit beam this year, even? I don't think so, and it strikes me that those kinds of psychological concerns could be an even bigger issue than form concerns.<br /><br />Yet, Iordache's chances are looking better and better at this stage as well. If she can upgrade her floor dismount, I think she's definitely my top contender for gold on that apparatus, and if those vaulting rumors are true as well, look out everyone. I'd want to see some numbers, but I suspect Wieber would be hard pressed to beat her if she gets an Amanar.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00677410223855665347noreply@blogger.com
