I always forget that American tv is basically just adverts.. UGH.

It took me a while to understand what’s the big deal with McKayla’s picture. Now that everyone has pointed it out, I agree that what she’s wearing is age inappropriate, but I’m just so used to girl’s her age dressing provocatively and posting pictures on instagram/fb that I sort of don’t see this as a problem anymore :(

I still don’t see the problem.. Then again in the UK she isn’t “underage” really. I’ve seen 12 year olds wear worse than this….. 

magnesiumcarbonate:

I am so conflicted.

Part of me is like: “McKayla has ownership of her own body and it is absolutely none of my freaking business what she chooses to do with it.” 

But the other part is like: “PUT SOME CLOTHES ON, THE INTERNET IS A BIG SCARY PLACE AND YOU ARE UNDERAGE. WHERE ARE YOU PARENTS!?” 

Mneh, if she owns it flaunt it.. I like that she’s confident. 

Was so confused at the underage thing until I remember its a different age in US vs UK..

Does anyone know which new skills and elements performed in 2012 made it to the Code of Points? And what their difficulty levels are?

I know Ferrari performed a new leap on floor and I think Mustafina performed a new low to high bar transition, but are there more?

Moors: her dismount is a D, I can’t describe it but just youtube any of her bars really 

Wong?: mount on beam is an E I think, roundoff and twisting is involved..

Mustafina doesn’t have on named after her but I think the one you are talking about is a Chow 1/2.. Yao Jinnan also tried to get it named after her at one point but nothing happened.  

My timetable for this semester sucks so much. 

Why do they make fridays so bad? I don’t want to be in class until 6 at night. 

Fuck you Anne, fuck you.

This gymnastike gold thing you have going on is the single dumbest shit I’ve seen in awhile. I was fine when you were just sticking a bunch of how to videos in there. But the MLT doc? Yeah fuck you. I am now concerned what else you plan on putting behind a paywall. Meet videos? Interviews? NCAA coverage?

Does anyone actually subscribe to this?

Just wait until the series is posted then sign up for a free trial. Watch all the videos in one day and then cancel. I subscribed because I don’t have any patience but I’m cancelling it before I have to pay - The documentry was alright but the first episode had half of it just MLT and not gymnastics really..
