Oh how I have missed lolgymnasts!

Is there a point to the strange, somewhat childish grammar in the captions? I'm not objecting, just wondering if it has a purpose/context/origin that I've missed?

Anon @ 10:40pm... it's all tongue-in-cheek. Google 'I can haz cheezeburgers', 'LOLcats' or 'Failblog' and you'll get an impression of the style Mez is going for here.

You never fail to crack me up with these hon :)

Vic Trial 2 is on Saturday too, and 1/2 our 2008 Olympic team are competing. Pretty amazing when you think about it. 5/6 are still competing 2 years on, and Olivia is still competing overseas. After Athens Monette was the only survivor, and even she only lasted 1 year. It's great to see them stick around.

That's a very positive outlook, Anon 2:02!

Best of all, some are looking towards their SECOND Olympics!

NBC are broadcasting a 90 minute special of Pac Rim highlights at 1.30 US Eastern Time on 22 May. http://www.usa-gymnastics.org/pages/post.html?PostID=5490&prog=a Will we be able to see this online does anyone know?

I can tell you that there is NO footage of the Russians, and VERY limited footage of the Canadians on the NBC footage. They covered the USA and China comprehensivley, and a fair bit of the Australians .... basically because they were forced to if they wanted any footage at all. Hope it turns out OK
