Re: [gatortalk] US Gymnastic Championships

I've been kind of spoiled by the SEC Network's gymnastics coverage in which there is almost non-stop action. NBC seems to want to focus on a just a few athletes and not even acknowledge the existence of others. I guess they are ramping up to the Olympics and want to start focusing on the ones they believe will be there. It's all about the star power, I guess.

I'm aware that the level of difficulty is greater for these type competitions than the collegiate ones (announcers mentioned that elite gymnasts do 3 times more gymnastics), but there were times where I was not very impressed. It was mostly the uneven bars, where most routines were sloppy when it came to the handstands. Is this just my lack of gymnastics knowledge showing?
