I felt so bad for kyla when she fell on her vault but the look on marta's face..

Why didn’t she do floor on Olympics

That auditorium is chaotic as hell. I wouldn’t be able to focus on my lunch order let alone an Olympic routine

I could just imagine what she was going through. Poor baby. My heart goes out to her. But she knows she’s amazing and deserves all the respect and recognition she earned

Fantasy Team: Simone Biles, Dominique Dawes, Elisabeth Price, Gabby Douglas, and Amy Chow.

Anyone else find these sad because they were all molested? Amazing gymnasts and women. Nassar was actually looked at as prestigious.

22:07, she might have won Gold before, but I think getting up after that fall, fighting back tears and restart is at least equally impressive if not more.

Nastia 2008: focused, concentrated, aloof, no joy, no smile, no congratulations for others, arrogant, goal: Gold 2012: no training, make-up, dyed hair, unfocused, relaxed, open, basically as if it didn't matter anyway

I don’t know how they thought Jordyn would win an all around gold medal. All of her competitors had start values totaling .5 to 1 point higher than her. Viktoria scored 2 points higher than her. All of the little details are super important don’t get me wrong but they are not going to make even half a point difference.

How did Mykala got picked over Elizabeth Price?

Elizabeth Price did so well and didn't get picked. Politics

Elizabeth Price should have made it over Makayla.

After watching tons of footage and interviews and competitions and this and that, I can't help but see Jordan and Aly being all buddy-buddy (yes I know they're friends), same with McKayla and Kyla (but to be fair they grew up training together) and Gabby is just kind of left out of all the socializing and celebrating and everything. From the trials all the way to the competition. I don't know any backstories, I don't use social media (unless you count youtube) it's just jumping out the screen at me right now and reminding me of high school cliques for some reason. Am I crazy? She just looks...excluded. Same when they won the team all around and were celebrating. Kyla and McKayla hugging, Aly and Jordyn...and Gabby's just kind of by herself.

These jewel toned leos are so gorg

considering her doctor was raping her instead of healing her, she did miracle after miracle, she is a warrior, new girls in the sport should recognize at least, that thanks to her they are not treated by that rapist too.

This comment section seems to be all mixed/messed up between 2012 and 2016. Idk what's going on here.

The spitters on bars are useless, including Valeri. They never catch the gymnast.

McKayla knew she had to ignore her injury....for Marta

The funny thing about this selection is that Elizabeth Price would have been chosen this year. There was a reason why she achieved the no.4 spot in scores.

Steve Penny should be in jail!!

1:14:00 these commentators are so nasty. Gabby wins the top spot and they're so quick to gloss over it.

Valeri making Rebecca Bross stop her bar routine so she didn’t kill herself was a peak dad move.

Meanwhile, almost every one of them had broken bones during this meet.

Gabby needs to write a tell-all book. She’s seen some stuff.

Nastia 😢

Marta’s retirement was the greatest moment in the history of gymnastics. It meant the end of the toxic dynamic that poisoned women’s gymnastics and paved the way for a transformation in the way gymnasts train, stay healthy and get the emotional support needed to fuel their performance. Instead of a solemn, joyless demeanour they can now show their pride in their work and be able to cheer one another on without the Karoyli’s black cloud determining how they could express themselves. The Karoyli’s isolated their gymnasts and controlled every aspect of their lives, through fear tactics and outright abuse. Good they are gone and the ranch is closed. And they are one of the reasons why Nassar got away with what as much as he did. He patched up the gymnasts so they would be able to practice and compete while still injured because that’s what the Karoyli’s wanted. In exchange they gave him carte blanche to do whatever he wanted to the girls, unchecked. He still would have abused girls but the sheer number is due to the fact that the Karolyi’s, in part, allowed him to practice totally unchecked for an extended period of time.

Crazy elizabeth didnt make it

I’ll have to watch day 2, but why was Elizabeth Price not picked for this team? She was amazing!!! Did something happen Day 2?

Ok so i just want people's opinion... no fighting... just what you think... if nastia had trained maybe a year earlier and came to these trials with a perfect bar routine and perfect beam routines and the olympic committee chose her... who do you think out of the other fierce five they would have kept home?

Wow. These Marta interviews do NOT age well.

I sure am glad that Marta no longer has any say in todays gymnastics.

miss nastia !

The commentators are gracious and forgiving to some athletes like Jordan and Nastia but nitpick other athletes like Gabby. Hard to not notice.

Jordyn's routines ❤ Bars 4:08 Beam 12:10 Floor 52:43 Vault 1:08:45

Jordyn's routines ❤ Valut 17:08 Bars 31:02 Beam 59:17 Floor 1:13:09

Price was virtually flawless. I really think she deserved to be on the team. Did she have two vaults that would have contended for an event medal? I really don't think I've ever seen a more well-balanced all-arounder. She put up big scores!! Her floor landings were sooo controlled.

i 100% believe nastia would’ve made the team if she had taken a year to get back into FITNESS shape and then got back into the gym for her routines, you can tell by the way she was swinging on bars that she had WAY more power and weight than she was ever used to having, her form as always was absolutely impeccable (besides the obvious error)

Nastia is so beautiful to watch even when she falls she flicks her toe up to a point!!! She’s the most graceful gymnast I’ve ever seen and I can’t take my eyes off her 😍!!! She definitely didn’t give herself enough time to prepare for these competitions. At least she had the heart to try , what a champion 👏🏼👑

funny to see this pre SImone BIles

Gabby was well known to be the biggest threat to Jordyn's supposed dominance - at least to the commentators, as well as to the gymnasts. Regarding the so-called controversy mentioned in this comment section of what Jordyn and Aly may have said, there is no possible way they could have been suprised that Gabby was going to become an Olympian. Gabby already won the American Cup 2012 when Jordyn and Aly were the official American gymnasts and Gabby was not listed on the scoreboard but was entered by Marta to compete as a third. The full broadcast is on KZbin. Officially, Jordyn won, but Gabby's score was higher, and you better believe the commentators and Jordyn, Aly and Marta at a minimum knew. NBC focuses big time on name recognition which is why they were talking about Jordyn more as she was the 2011 world AA champion and 2012 US national champion. There were a number of girls competing whose names were never even mentioned by the commentators eg Kennedy Baker, Brenna Dowell. One can hear the arena announcer saying their names before their routines. Sarah Finnegan and Sabrina Vega did not get a mention on the second night. You will be happy to find out that they all had great NCAA careers! NBC does this "hyper-focus on approx 8 gymnasts (ignore the rest) and maximize the drama" for every trials. Feel free to check 2016 and 2021 not to mention 2000, 2004 and 2008. Not sure if there are earlier ones on KZbin. Thank you very much for uploading! ❤

Elfi losing her shit over Sarah Finnegans wolf turn, not even mentioning the first American to compete it, at the Athens game, Terin Humphrey.

Bien preparadas para ganar en Londres pero no brillaron más allá. Las Rusas y rumanas siguen siendo las mejores.NO SE LES OLVIDE

Las prepararon para ganar .no podían quedar mal con Londres.

Tenían que entrenarlas los extranjeros porque no nos no! Hay buenos en su país.

Esteroides

Triunfos robados!

Pretty fine
