  1. She will be a much bigger star then fat nastia ever was! What bothers me about nastia is that people now hardly remember how great she was in 2008. All I keep hearing is how bad and out of shape she looked at trials.

    1. Maybe Nastia won't ever be a Mary Lou Retton in the eyes of the general public, but most gym fans won't soon forget her Olympic all-around title and her *5* Olympic medals. More importantly, it's rather likely that Nastia will be happy and successful in whatever she endeavors to do next.

      Besides, why should what *other* people think about Nastia bother *you*?

    2. my boyfriend calls nastia 'the russian girl' and says her first name is weird. i think this explains a lot.

    3. I agree with both anon 11:25 and 11:49. I always find that people define her as Russian, not as American. Her fame is not with the american public but with true gymnastic fans. That's why the smartest thing her agent ever did was develop that cup with her name on it. It's possible that all future Olympic champions from the USA will come through the Nastia Liukin Cup. How's that for a legacy?

    5. Nastia kicked Gabbys butt! She has the AA gold medal & three EF medals!!! Gabby in event finals, looked like the gymnast we were used too. I think Shawn, had a better overall Olympics than Gabby. Nastia is famous. She still does Subway commercials. Has her own GK line, is on the today show & has her own cup. Although, Shawn Still became more famous.

    6. i think for the first time I figured out why it is that nastia is less popular then Shawn and Gabby. It is simply because of the fact she is Russian, she is thought of as less American. Flame away, that is how people do see it. As far as having one or two extra medals, That is irrelevant. Kerri Strug had one medal in the olympics, she due to her story, made far more then anyone else on the tour.

    1. isn't it great when one's ignorance is matched by their bigotry...

    2. What planet are you from that you would refer to an accomplished olympic gymnast as Aly Reisman as the Jew. I am proud to share the same heritage and happy that clearly you do not. Please crawl back under your rock.

  3. @Anon 11:56--You are truly disgusting. Go meditate on the ugliness in your soul.

  4. And anyway, isn't Wieber Jewish?

    1. Wieber does - or did - set off my Jewdar a little (just as Tatiana Lysenko set off my Jewdar back in the day - before I learned that she was in fact Jewish). But, of course - not everyone who has "that look" will be Jewish - and "Wieber" could simply be a non-Jewish German name. But to actually answer your question - no, the Wiebers apparently are not Jewish.

      I do wonder where Jordyn and her extremely hot brother get their dark, slightly "ethnic" looks, from...

    2. When I first saw Jordyn I figured her to be half white half black.

      Delete
    3. Wieber's grandmother is lebanese.

      Delete
    4. That must be why jordyn is having trouble keeping weight off.

    5. I knew there was some ethnicity somewhere.

      Delete
    6. Oh, right, white people don't have ethnicity! Thanks for reminding us.

  5. She looks so pretty! Go Gabby!
