ignorant fucking idiot! i hate amerians who cant stand to lose! they make excuses like the judges being chinese! THERE WERE NOO CHINESE JUDGES!!! and asians ALWAYS look ALOT younger than other races! its common knowledge!

In gymnastics and other judged events, none of the judges on the panel are allowed to be from the same country as any athlete competing that event. Athletes in the Women's Uneven Bars Final were from: China, USA, Great Britain, Ukraine, Russia, Romania Judges for the Women's Uneven Bars Final were from: Poland, New Zealand, South Africa, Brazil, Bulgaria The tie-breaker rule was in effect during the 2000 Sydney Olympics as well as in Athens in 2004. Why is it suddenly unfair now???

by the way every one of those judges knew nothing about gymnastica and they rigged it so that the hometown hero would win the gold and she's also underaged

exactly!! and the people already checked if the passports were fake and they werent! so yeah its just the way they look people cant prove that they're young.

none of the judges ... ( 5 days ago by NinaRulezxoxo)

none of the judges were chinese and the chinese passports are not fake how can you prove to me that they are? they've already been proved to be real. you people are just too racist to accept that maybe china was better than america.

Do you know how ... ( 5 days ago by HildeG85)

Do you know how ridiculous you sound? Sure...those judges know nothing about gymnastics...the opinions of people who watch gymnastics maybe once every 4 years are much more valid. Sure...all the gymnastics events were rigged...except for the ones where Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson won. Sure...the gymnasts from China were underaged...that's why they were cleared last month.

The day that a ... ( 5 days ago by Samuraipollack)

The day that a nation like china can't make a real passport is the day I stop jerking my dick until it squirts cum and want to stop fucking bitches.
Are you saying that a nation like China can't make a real passport ? Every country in the world can produce real passports. All it takes is some paper and ink, approval from the government and some angry Chinese yelling "you calling us liars ?" to get a passport. I mean Give me a break that girl
looks like my 9 year old brother.

Chinese judges!!!! ... ( 5 days ago by Samuraipollack)

Chinese judges!!!! don't lie they also made themselves some fake passports !

just like the rest ... ( 5 days ago by Samuraipollack)

just like the rest of the fake stuff they had on that whole competition event lmao
POLSKA 2008 ! KURWA

Following your ... ( 5 days ago by HildeG85)

Following your logic, the U.S. can make passports too. If official paperwork can't be trusted, what evidence do you have that Nastia Liukin isn't underaged. Also, are you saying that your brother looks like a girl? Is it a trait that runs in your family?

Actually, it's ... ( 5 days ago by all4uanew)

Actually, it's ignorant AND racist to claim "asains ALWAYS look ALOT younger than other races!".

uhh how is that ... ( 4 days ago by ilovehollycombs)

uhh how is that racist??? for example I was in Japan, and the guy were pretty tall, but the woman 99% of the time were shorter than 5'2. its not racist, its just a fact, and since when did being short become a bad thing!?!?! I love asians, I'm not in any way making fun of them.. its just fact that asians are generally one of the shortest races, kind of like Kenyans are generally one of the fastest races. geeze

Kexin should have gotten a deduction for being f'ugly.

UGGH! I bet China wouldn't get over it if Nastia won. The Chinese midgets look like they're 12. He Kexin looks like she thinks she actually got it fair and square, only they cheated because she's underaged. If she weren't underaged, I probably wouldn't be as ticked off. :P They should have just waited. BUT NO! China is just obsessed with getting shiny gold things.

Nastia's over it, why aren't u? "My family and I are pleased with the level of scrutiny the FIG and IOC undertook with this very serious issue. When the questions arouse originally in the press all anyone in the gymnastics and Olympic communities wanted was closure which we now have. Again, I congratulate my competitors from China..."

C'mon, don't be so ... ( 1 day ago by HildeG85)

C'mon, don't be so angry, I think she's quite pretty...there's lots of people way more nastia liukin' than He Kexin! :P

Well, that would ... ( 14 hours ago by tammy842)

Well, that would never happen in this country. If someone underage was trying to get away with it, a U.S. competitor would call her out so she could get the spot. China has already proved they are capable and willing (they did it in 2000) and this year had the best reason (home country Olympics). It is certainly possible. But we'll find out the truth in ten years.

"Nastia was robbed? ... ( 59 minutes ago by chinatheatre)

"Nastia was robbed?"
She should feel lucky to get the silver with her ugly form and frog like dismount. Liukin, Kexin and Yilin all have the same start value on this event. But Liukin doesn't have the innovating and exciting moves as Kexin has, and she doesn't have perfect form as Yilin has. Yilin or Kexin should hold
top two positions.
