where did they get these judges? ...

I was originally going to blog and talk about how paul hamm was being unsportmanlike in holding onto the gold medal he got in the olympic men all-around gymnastic final, given all the controversy and the circumstances. After all, the Korean boy was cheated by the judges and denied gold through no fault of his own. But then I really sat and thought about it and i can see how hamm feels. After all, he didn't make the judging error and who would really give up the one gold medal they got at the olympics anyway? Plus, the korean team management must take some of the blame for not noticing what the judges were doing.
Then i watched the finals of the men high bar and i was shocked by what occurred with aleksei nemov of russia. I'm no expert nor a judge but i know a good routine when i see one and those 4 releases were spectacular!! The one flaw was the step on the landing, which is a relatively minor flaw. the crowd was right to boo and make the judges change the score. [BTW. KUDOS TO YOU ALEKSEI NOT ONLY FOR THE PERFORMANCE BUT THE WAY YOU HANDLED THE CROWD AND ASKED THEM TO LET PAUL HAMM GO ON WITH HIS ROUTINE. GREAT SPORTMANSHIP. HAMM...TAKE A LESSON, DUDE!]
So, the problem is clearly the judging. Firstly, the scores were wrong and second, they put hamm in a pretty hard position...twice. And i have to ask, given that this is the Olympics..the absolute top teir of international competition....WHERE THE FUCK DID THEY FIND THESE MORONS??? Was the coalition of the blind and retarded busy? Get real you losers and i hope they ban all of you from judging for life for having no taste.
Okay that's my rant. Catch you guys later.
Oh btw. ELENA ZAMOLODCHIKOVA is so sexy. She has the most beautiful eyes. :-D
