media focus on injury in gymnastics

My second day at USA Championships the local paper San Jose Mercury News has a focus on injury.

Headline:

THIS MIGHT HURT A BIT
Gymnastics is examining the aches, pains of its athletes

The article is well written (Elliott Almond) though every coach would take exception to some of the statements made.

UPDATE: Read the original article: Gymnastics examines its aches, pains

On the plus side, the new Code of Points needs as much media scrutiny as possible.

What medical consequences are we seeing under the new FIG rules?
