Originally posted by: Hammer<BR>i dont think the korean should get it. if they want the start value fixed, then they should also fix the not penalizing him for the missed mistakes.

<BR><BR>are you an idiot or can you not read?<BR><BR>if you want to do that, you have to review the tapes of EVERY PERFORMANCE and rejudge according to video. there is a reason this isn't done, because there would never be an end.<BR><BR>in fact even the start value issue should NEVER have been reviewed and the judges should NOT HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED.<BR><BR>wrong start values are common.<BR><BR>the ONLY reason that they would have suspended those judges is IF the koreans DID protest that day and the judges pushed them aside and ignored their protest.

<BR><BR>So basically you are saying the Koreans are greedy whiney bitches, because they know they got away with a huge error, but still want the FIG and IOC to give them a gold clearly when his preformance didnt warrant it.

<BR><BR>IF the judges had done as required by the committee, review the start value when it was protested, they would have awarded the korean the .1 points. they never review performances, never have. they only review for the start value, hamm himself said as much. for him to say that and then point out the 4th hold is hypocritical to the nth degree.<BR><BR>again, answer the question, why did they suspend the judges over something like start values which are frequently protested and overturned without judge suspensions?

<BR><BR>Everyone is saying Paul Hamm is a poor sport, and other sh!t what is truely poor sportsmanship and hypocritical is the Korean knowing FULL WELL he made a fourth hold and then he tries to take adavantage of a mistake that would help him. That is POOR SPORTSMANSHIP, and iS EXTRMELEY HYPOCRITICAL.<BR><BR>As for the rest take off your tin foil hat.

<BR><BR><BR>why were the judges suspended??<BR><BR>let's try a hypothetical.<BR><BR>IF the judges had reviewed the start values at the meet as they should have and he had been awarded the .1 points, what would have happened?<BR><BR>the olympic officials know full well what would have happened. so does paul hamm.

<BR><BR>So you wont admit that its extremely poor sportsmanship displayed by the Korean knowing he made a major mistake and then trying to take advantage of the situtation.<BR><BR>As for the rest, you are making allegations you cant back up. For all we know the Koreans could be lying, as there were plenty of other protests that went through. Or they could have simply protested it to late.

In this case I doubt anyone would object if you started a new thread. 😉

Hamm is a ham. What an embarrassment. I feel bad for him and all but he's also a puss.

Ham should keep it. The Korean think he was misjudged on tbe parallel bar, BUT look at his program. He is allowed to do 3 standstills (don't know the right term) but he does 4 and would loose anyway.

You just know someone would link here if he did...

I don't understand why so many ignore the fact that there were two scoring errors, and that if you account for both of them Hamm wins!
