^^^I didn't mind the Russian girls crying so much after the silver (although you'd think at this point they'd have been somewhat prepared for that possibility) because team medals are such a big deal and it's once every four years, but crying every stinkin' time they had issues on an event....c'mon. Pull it together.
I felt bad for McKayla since she really is the best vaulter out there, but it happens. I was frustrated with Al, Tim, and Elfie (I usually am) because they continually emphasized how "in the bag" this was. However, anything can happen on any day...that's why we watch, and we can't win them all. It would get boring if we did (back to the US basketball team situation), so if it's going to be someone else, I'm glad it was a Romanian. I want to see them improve and get back to where they were or at least closer to it.
