care about a few export blocked out here in culver city california rich from a
few yesterday it was heartbreaking for some
jordan weaver who was
number one in the world and the all-around uh... came into london as the
heavy favorite to win the all around to win gold
did not
even qualify it now because of a certain rule
each country
is permitted to only to competitors
uh... per country
she finished
fourth overall
the two americans
that finished ahead of her
debbie douglas
an alley rice min now before we get to them let's break down toward and weaver
very quickly
on vault c steps to lightly out of bounds
on being she appeared tense and while bore the few times
on her floor routine she stepped out of bounds as well
so again gabby douglas sixteen years old and allie rice than eighteen years old
will be competing in the olympic all-around jordan weaver still has to
events that chic in place in which are the team exercise and floor event that
overall victoria come over of russia
was number one
douglas
uh... it should be reissland douglas
and then jordan weaver
rounded out the top four now bracing
for high is difficult to scores were on the bean and floor and she at improved
on her weakest event
which was bars but again her floor routine it was terrific
by the way
have to mention
a proud june from boston massachusetts
per floor rita's song
how the new deal
love allie rice and already off the bat now douglas
that the american covered madison square garden out stored or owned weaver than
she did it again at the united states olympic trials
weaver's coach john debtor had this to say we have always known the trooper
country rule
we're not crying
of spilt milk yet it makes it difficult to explain how the fourth best
all-around finisher the former world champion does not get a shot at the
filling her dream just because a country happens to be incredibly strong the
sting of this injustice is painful
and for the record i voiced his opinion time and time again
to penalize an athlete their country for being outstanding is not in the spirit
of sport and certainly not the spirit of the olympic games that is debtor who
wrote this in a face book posting
melaka rowly former olympic gymnastics coach
hole where is guy
was quoted as saying this what a travesty howell
someone can afford a cut one of the message in this to eliminate somebody
because it's he may deter still among the first fortune this in the world and
you're still eliminated
jordan weaver took to face book
thank you all for your love and support i'm so proud of our team and i can't
wait for the team finals
it's hard to explain these feelings
but i'm extremely annoyed to be an olympian and be a part of this team now
how close
was it world
the albino sentinel looked into this before exercise rice min scored fifteen
point three two five points the weavers fourteen point six six six with singer
to a total of sixty point three nine one douglas clinching the second all round
spot
supports sixty point two six five
and weaver sixty point zero three two
weaver who stepped out about the nato when past
missed second by only point two three three point weaver has qualified for
floor exercise along with allie rice been douglas in rice min
qualify for the balance beam
mchale amaro anyhoo really gets up ion vault qualified
uh... for bald and douglas
qualified for the uneven ps all around the united states leading russia
one eighty one point eight six three
to one eighty point four two nine two defending champions china one seventy
six point six three seven rounds out the top three the team final is july thirty
first and just a quick side note only four reigning world champs have won
olympic gold
the last
in nineteen ninety six
so we want to hear from you guys should this rule be thrown out
odd atop twenty-four should
while the best twenty-four be able to compete or should they keep it as
only two per country should round out the top twenty four
