That was nuts.<br /><br />I'd say that most of the last twenty years have been good for USAG. '85-'88 was a bit rough when Bela wasn't at competitions (incl 87 Worlds) and that 97-00 was the other major rough patch. '77-84 was quite decent as the US really started to ascend the ranks of international gymnastics. '83 Worlds was rough for the women because Bela kept the top two AAers in the country at home in order to protect their reputations because he didn't feel they were ready to challenge the Soviets and Romanians at full strength.OlympicEffecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11708554152461551887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-47523326483968445802010-08-10T17:58:39.765-07:002010-08-10T17:58:39.765-07:00The bar final was ridiculous for 2 reasons:
