Some of the greatest gymnasts have of course been underage. I see why they have done so, to protect gymnasts in less developed countries, yet those countries will do so if they can get away with it. A 6 person team seems awesome to think about right now..and yet 7 wasn't that long ago! It hasn't made a difference to lesser teams getting onto the podium, and it won't this time around either. Canada, Britain, Japan and Australia are all leaving amazing gymnasts at home, they all have depth!<br /><br />I would LOVE Alicia as commentator to replace Elfi. Or even just by herself. A great personality, great in interviews, knows her stuff. Her and McKayla really stand out as sparkly.Beautiful Gymnasticshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00935698970163328051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2287202282884938977.post-36287096177856555762012-07-04T19:49:31.819+01:002012-07-04T19:49:31.819+01:00First- great piece!

It is obvious that you took the time to breathe, and focus the what is actually needed in London.<br />Second- I'm old as dirt-I competed before levels were instituted! and extremely unhappy with the new rules. The age rule that has been in place since 2008 is ridiculous, and value and team size, etc. etc. just screws the sport in general. Less people, less exposure- especially when the young women who have "star" power are gone. If NBC does not offer Alicia a commentator spot, they're crazy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2287202282884938977.post-65425958375110690682012-07-03T14:35:00.448+01:002012-07-03T14:35:00.448+01:00Thank you!

Absolutely not, of course I welcome feedback but I'm fully aware of how new it is and how others can express my own views better and more eloquently.
