Reminded again today of an old friend of mine who worked for the IOC who told me, "The more sparkles one wore on their competitive uniform the more likely they were to shank a bitch."

Uncle Tim at GymHistory has confirmed what was long suspected. Gina Gogean was age falsified for Barcelona. It's too late to strip medals but the rightful team silver is the USA and bronze should have been China

Varfolomeev loves Brazil:
"Rio was an incredible city, and I'd love to go back. There are so many beautiful beaches, so many positive people who were there for everyone during the World Cup. The fans in the stands were incredibly loud, which is why I'd really like to go again."

I was being told about Big Name Coach who 100% thinks press and social media hype leads to higher scores. All I could think is... if I was a brevet judge who spent so much time working on my craft I'd find that idea super offensive.

I'm a little worried the Prat didn't get named at Junior Worlds after all. FIG published a press release about Minamino's bars skill today but nothing about the 3L.

Bundesliga RG finals are this weekend and it brings my favorite absurdity of the season. These are head to head, specific gymnast competing against a specific gymnast to see who scores higher. Because Varfolomeev will outscore everyone other teams put 12 year olds against her.

Though there are a couple of Top 12 matches in December I count them towards 2026. Meaning the only thing left for the season on my tracker that I know of is SEA Games
