Miss Al, Jordyn is the one here who deserves the respect - certainly not Tina! She is not getting to go in the AA because of a rule that had absolutely nothing to do with her performance. It isn't right. The best should compete, if they are all from the same country then so be it!
Look beyond the wall folks...Jordyn's Parents lost out for the mega bucks that they dished out (Retirement Investment Wishes)to get this kid a chance at FAME so Mon-n-Dad can retire with her "Fame" and TV commercials....So much for the Wheaties Box this go-around. She did good though.
Andrea, Tina and Shelly are entitled to their opinion and you should accept it whether you agree with it or not and stop calling them names or else this will be another place no one can comment at all or have to have a facebook account and I don't want to waste my time with that. Respect begins when we agree to disagree.
Thanks James, we need to cheer for our US Team, no matter who is left or what. I hate comments cause the idiots can put on their hoods minus any airflow and say such ignorant things. GO TEAM USA no matter who it is!!
A perfect example of why "sports" that involve winning or losing via a judge's decision based on how well they "liked" the performance is a BAD idea. Need a new scoring system, or get rid of gymnastics, figure skating, etc.
Jordyn, you did wonderful. I do feel that the judges graded you different than the others. Gabby had both feet out of bounds, while you just had part of one foot out of bounds, yet she did not get the lower score even the commentators felt she would get. Keep your head held high, you are still a champion!!
We don't always get what we want, but I feel so sorry for her about this. But thats life.
Still 4 place is impressive.
I, too, was sorry to see Jordyn miss the opportunity, however, let's put emotions aside and remember something: Jordyn is the World Champion. Her performance was not the best and it may be possible that the judges held her to a higher standard. Hopefully, there's a silver lining here: that this disappointment will spur her on to her best performance yet. Go, Girl!!!
Who exactly is this olympic girl anyways? I've been hearing about her on the news channel often.
