#event final

2. “ Absolutely fascinated by people who think home advantage is a thing beyond the crowd making a performance seem more powerful than it actually is. People are talking like there’s a bigger bribery scandal - if that was the case, why leave Alice in 4th? Why not bump her up above Jones? The judges aren’t British, the only home advantage comes from crowd response. Gadirova has a smartly constructed routine. Cope. “

“ I haven't watched event finals yet, but the beam podium is giving me life. “

“ skye blakely's hair ribbon deserves life in prison “

3. “Most of the gymternet: OMG! RibbonGate!  Me: OMG! She spots during her wolf turn!”

“ Team Canada got their first world team medal yay!!!! Then Ellie got beam silver!!! What a great worlds for Canada!!! “

2. “Rebece looked so good winning in white!”

“ I'm so sorry for Skye Blakeley. She looked so positive on beam - until she fell. “

2. “People that think it’s bad that Emma won balance beam with an easy dismount seem to forget that easier, clean routines are SUPPOSED to be able to win over harder, messier ones.  Also, the technical committee just passed up on a chance to require harder dismounts and instead chose to offer a bonus if the gymnast chooses to do a D or higher dismount.  So, they literally just affirmed that gymnasts can still choose to be clean instead of going for difficulty above all else.”
