SO. all signs point to chellsie memmel doin some swingy things on the bars again, and that makes me kind of excited (‘cos she’s MAH GERL y’all in case you didn’t know) but also a little nervous because she will probably just end up with a cracked vertebra or a fractured skull or something, knowing her luck. ;_;

ANYWAY, the evidence is as follows. please see this & this post by gymtruthteller, which have tweety evidence from her dad (and also leave me scratching my head about how many events she’s doing? because 47.4 is either a really low four event score or a rather high three event score). and these tweets, which beg the question…what is she doing this weekend? idk, i have no sourcez. maybe she did a polar bear plunge for the first time or something, idk.

idk!

but.

they never fucking told nastia to smile more. fuck that. why the hell should aliya smile more? you know what’s appealing about her? the fact that she does really fucking hard gymnastics really fucking well and is the first russian world all-around champion since…

a very good point, because nastia has indeed caught lots of shit for not smiling. i would bet money (a small amount, because i’m poor) though that ig & dwight never threw any. they have a huge hard-on for nastia which makes me rather queasy.

it basically just sucks that gymn fans have to rely on them for news and such, since there is so little other reporting about gymnastics out there.

fuckin' ig & shit, man

Sat, 08 Jan 2011 20:05:03 -0600

they never fucking told nastia to smile more. fuck that. why the hell should aliya smile more? you know what’s appealing about her? the fact that she does really fucking hard gymnastics really fucking well and is the first russian world all-around champion since svetlana fucking khorkina and the first gymnast to qualify to all five individual finals at a world championships in damn near twenty years. and she didn’t even fucking slow down after doing all that, but competed a little more and threw some upgrades just for shits and giggles. gymnastics is not about fucking smiling to make people happy and endear fans. fuck that. if they’re not watching gymnastics already, they’re not going to, dwight. this isn’t the fucking nfl, and i guess you’re trying to make money with your “magazine” and shit, but it’s not going to fucking happen. LEAVE ALIYA ALONE

p.s. who the fuck cares about kohei’s haircut seeing as he’s the fucking best gymnast in the world two fucking years running and nobody’s gonna fucking touch him as long as he stays on his feet? what is this, fucking 1965? get a fucking life.

i feel a little better.

Peng Peng is back! & here is her beam routine

originally from: gymnasticscoaching

the skill selection is so badass. and i love the way she totally shuns preparation for the punch front and just runs right into it.

THIS is the girl who deserved to win TEB!

curse you URs & that bloody spin…mirai’s performance was miles ahead of kiira’s

Khorkina Cup Results

Sun, 28 Nov 2010 10:52:51 -0600

russiangymn:

Anna Pavlova won the AA in the Master of Sport category.

1. Anna Pavlova 57.300
2. Alla Sidorenko 53.500
3. Marina Nekrasova 53.350

Apparently, the reports of her reitrement at the end of the season were a misquote (bad IG). She needs to get her beam and floor routines back up to the level they were before her injury to genuinely challenge for a spot on the Russian team but it’s just nice to see her still competing.

PAVS! <33

i’m mad kiira won TEB. she didn’t deserve it. also i have a huge paper due this week....

i’m mad kiira won TEB. she didn’t deserve it. also i have a huge paper due this week. gonna be light around here. i’ll try to liveblog SWTS again though.

liveblogging skating with the stars - night one, part six

Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:36:00 -0600

21:26 - eagerly awaiting “Giants With the Stars.” make it happen, ABC.

21:28 - was that a muppet on the footstool?

21:29 - he’s really not bad

21:30 - was walking forward and doing the macarena also a requirement?

21:30 - none of these people suck enough for this to be a lot of fun.

21:31 - so much credit and…you suck

21:31 - I actually thought that was good advice. Well played, Johnny G.

21:31 - I think spotting is a little advanced at this point…

21:32 - Dick really respects you and he could be your grandpa…

21:33 - earlier today I read a story about the demand in Russia for donations of human hair to be used as extensions…now I understand

21:34 - can’t entirely disagree with those scores

21:34 - “you worked really hard and they called you the worst…how does that make you feel?” paging Andrea Joyce.

21:35 - and now you’re subjecting me to a Bachelor promo? fuck you, ABC. fuck you.

21:38 - that was longer than any actual skating so far

RE: Denis Petukhov trying to be AShib: they said Denis caught his blade on his partner’s dress during a shoot the duck in practice and they both fell…see? copycat!

21:43 - Bethenny is to Skating With the Stars as Sasha Cohen is to the world

21:44 - at least Bethenny’s funny

21:44 - her baby’s only six months old? jeez. I thought she was older.

21:44 - Jill ZAAARRIN is so jealous right now

21:45 - stealing the term “ice husband”

21:45 - I love Tanith’s rehearsal updates

21:46 - did he pick this song before or after she kept getting dizzy? lol

21:47 - it’s like watching a bunch of Tom Z skaters. so slowwwwwwwwww

21:47 - that guy looked familiar. who was that?

21:48 - her hair is so enormous, omg.

21:48 - Dick is such a creeper, as always.

21:49 - ohhh his voice’s coming back…”you just had a bay-beeee”

21:49 - ew ew ew ew ew ew self-promotion

21:50 - Tanith looks so awkward, lol.

21:50 - TAH NITH

21:55 - the merciful final segment

21:55 - her hair is smaller now. somebody flattened it.

21:55 - this scoring is arbitrary. so - it’s a wonderful replica of real competitive figure skating scoring!

21:56 - Sean & Denis were not five points better than Bethenny and Ethan

21:57 - phones open for 1 hr…get to it, kids. or vote on your “laptops”

21:57 - just realized I spelled Jonny Moseley’s name wrong tonight. I’m sorry.

21:58 - hahaa and…nobody moves!

21:59 - will we be subjected to more Johnny frippery next week? oh, probably.

21:59 - Vince Neil is gone, no?

21:59 - he says “jidges” too

THE END

Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:08:00 -0600

21:00 - the boys will always have it easier because they just have to stand there and hold on

21:01- yup definitely the best so far

21:01 - still into that ice circle

21:03 - is it just me not hearing him in a while, or does Johnny sound really uncharacteristically masculine

21:04 - Johnny is nameist!

21:05 - awww it’s like watching little kids taking lessons at the Galleria!

21:06 - more commmmmmmmms >:0 this show is clearly cut from the DWTS cloth

21:10 - shoot me now. he better take that shit off at some point. he can’t REALLY skate with it.

21:11 - oh good. commercials were his fault, though. he had to go change.

21:11 - I would give this like a 4 for artistic expression, tbh.

21:12 - how long till Yuna is on this show?

21:13 - ohhhhh plugging USFS Learn to Skate. ic.

21:13 - Budig has an advantage because she’s skinny.

21:13 - dangerous….tricks? like what?

21:14 - i wish they would’ve shown us skate fittings

21:15 - millions is ambitious, IMO

21:15 - graphics are better than on DWTS

21:15 - she looks constipated

21:17 - someone tell gymnasts to cut their leotards like that

21:17 - okay I think she was overall better than Johnny, even though he was faster and less stiff

21:17 - don’t lie Tanith

21:17 - ….how did Johnny even have time to watch them?

21:18 - that wasn’t funny, Johnny. I believe you have a weave, though.

21:19 - Tanith looks appropriately chagrined

21:19 - Ne-Yo + pretty girl = ARTEEESTIC

21:20 - that practice rink is so tiny

21:21 - Motley Crue pictures, lol

21:21 - ahhh the ubiquitous USFSA jacket…I’m home.

21:23 - I want to see JUUUUUUMPS (and the inevitable falls heh heh)

20:50 - he really is Alex Shibutani!

20:51 - Tanith is so nice

20:51 - did Dick just fall asleep, lol?

20:52 - Johnny’s not going over 5 until someone impersonates Jesus or a bird

20:52 - Dinnerr rollllllll

20:53 - “Dancing but way cooler” yep, that’s it

20:54 - yup, calling it for Johnny & his pecs

20:55 - another freaking commercial? damn

20:55 - ugh, please not Poker Face. so over that.

20:39 - omg it goes until 10? fml.

20:40 - she has bad port de bras

20:41 - who picked that Y&R clip?? omglol

20:41 - it’s not called “Kneeing With the Stars,” Denis

20:41 - oh, that Blade Runner thing is going to get old. she’s cocky.

20:42 - this lady’s hats…

20:42 - “white carpet”? really?

20:43 - who does Denis think he is, Alex Shibutani?

20:43 - live music not necessary for skating, guise.

20:43 - can’t believe they just cheered

20:44 - that was a pretty nice pair/dance spin

20:44 - is she crying??

20:45 - bunnies frolicking aren’t exactly what I’d call “elegant,” Weir-do.

20:45 - $10 on the fact that Johnny does not compliment any of the other (non-Russian) skating pros

20:46 “take off your girdle and let ‘er fly”…………..speechless, Dicky.

20:47 - “don’t forget we’re live” haha as if I could with all the awkward pauses!

Mon, 22 Nov 2010 20:37:00 -0600

20:30 - how long is this gonna be….
20:30 - at least this show is good for MOAR Keauna
20:31 - she needs to teach him to straighten his legs at least once or twice
20:32 - not bad, though. I think she is a very good, strategic choreographer.
20:32 - ohhhhh Dick. never stop being you.
20:33 - he’s already in on the spirals.
20:33 - I hate Laurieann’s haircut
20:33 - and she shouldn’t get to comment on his skating skills, since she has none
20:34 - Johnny sounds like Evan.
20:36 - shit, I missed the scores. Sorry.
20:36 - 5 per line, hahaha. The Palin Effect.
20:36 - Neil’s the ringer.

20:13 - oh, no rhinestones in skating, are there?
20:15 - british host, they’re serious
20:15 - so are they all doing pairs or some pairs and some dance? because the latter is a little unfair IMO…
20:16 - Brooke or Keauna FTW…oh wait…
20:18 - I enjoy the ice circle
20:18 - you’re no Cat Deeley, British man…
20:19 - omg so awkward!
20:19 - calling it for Moseley
20:19 - okay, maybe Budig
20:21 - OH YES HE CALLED IT HIS CRAFT…if he can’t bring in the ratings, this show is doomed.
20:22 - crazy fucking Dick
20:22 - he looks less crypt-y than I remember
20:23 - TANITH!!!!!!!!!!
20:23 - I’m mostly looking forward to possible exhibitions…like…Tanith & Ben
20:25 - still a little confused about Keauna’s *thing*
20:25 - she’s soooo pretty though
20:26 - Toe pick!, etc.
