It was definitely heartbreaking to watch Alicia fall off of beam while knowing that the opportunity to pass the Chinese was lost and then watching her fall short on one of her tumbling passes on the floor. You could just tell how bad she wanted it but the nerves might've gotten to her. It also makes me wonder other things like how well would the women's team have done if both Chelsea Memmel and Samantha Peszeck were able to contribute more??
Either way I'm very excited that the woman captured the silver.. now i'm hoping for Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin, and Alicia(especially Alicia) to do amazingly well in the individual finals.
Maybe I'm bitter but I was soo happy when Bela Karoli( i'm sure I spelled that wrong) stated that he doesn't feel that the Chinese deserved gold because of age. But like everyone says with a government like China's there's no way that we'll ever know for sure what their actual ages are..
On the bright side the U.S. is STILL leading the medal count!!!!
