Exactly. If I’m Chiles I ain’t giving up shite. She scored higher and she won. Period.


Voinea should have scored higher too, so why does Chiles want it so bad if she didn't really deserve it either?

It's a cluster....

How can an adjudicating body refuse to re-look an issue if new evidence is presented?


Time to release the video evidence to the press.

I agree. First, there was an error made. It was appealed and corrected. Then, they decided it wasn't appealed timely and reversed. Now, allegedly video evidence of the timely appeal has been provided. They decline to review. Makes no sense at all. If I'm the gymnast now getting the medal, I wouldn't want it because it wasn't earned. It would be meaningless based on the truth.

Bring the three back to Paris and have them compete again. And have competent judges this time.

This is Cold War figure skating shite in the 21st Century.

Did they sneak a Russian judge into the gymnastics competition?

Surest way to get screwed as an American is to agree and abide by the rulings of a European kangaroo court.

Stay at home, don't get Amanda Knox'd. Maybe they'll let Chile's keep her bronze and then four years later take it away again after L.A.'s opening ceremony.

Should make chiles an Olympic flame bearer just to stick it to the IOC, FIG, and CAS.

I wouldn’t return shite if they reversed their ruling even though there is clear hard evidence to say they should not.

clear hard evidence


There is clear hard evidence that Romanian gymnast Sabrina Voinea should have been awarded bronze because they said she stepped out when she didn't. In the end, that medal doesn't belong to either Chiles or Barbosu.
