it was Nastia’s night …

She deserved it. Absolutely. No question.

Talk about peaking at the right time. This was the best competition I’ve ever seen from her. That vault was, I think, the best 3/2 Yurchenko ever done by a female gymnast. (Where are the deductions, again? … Women’s B-score judging is idiotic.)

… Consider this. Nastia said this year she may not retire after the Olympics.

It would be easy to stay on the National Team as a Beam and Bars specialist. I hope she does.
