The last time I watched the Olympics was in the 1970’s during the various scandals surrounding Soviet, East german, and Chinese cheating. I had had it after that. The IOC makes the Olympics an even bigger sham than it already is. Just try and get away with the same crap as an American athlete. The IOC would be all over that like stink on shit.

Remember how Nadia Comenic (sp?) got a perfect 10 at age 14 in the 1976 Olympics. So this age restriction must be a new thing.

In 1996, Dominique Moceanu was 15, and I remember the commentators saying that after that Olympics (Atlanta), athletes wouldn’t be able to compete at such a young age. So yeah, this is a relatively new thing.

And it’s Comaneci.

I am a new kid on this blog and have vowed not to get into it with those who swoop in to pick a fight.

Oh no. please do. Please explain why this president has commanded our, or at least, your, respect and apparent admiration.

I will pray for you and the other misguided libs like you who clearly need God’s help.

Thank you.

I have an 11 year old daughter. I had the same reaction as you Michelle.

Digshot #122 I just re-read some of the comments and discovered your dig at our President. Just to let you know, I normally don’t waste my time responding to trolls, but I just couldn’t resist just this once.

Good article Michelle.

But I confirm what a few others here have said, who have been watching that “commie” NBC coverage – that the NBC commentators have mentioned numerous times – the younger ages of the Chinese girl gymnists.

It’s not an issue with the Chinese men gymnists, however.

Michael Phelps winning his 7th Gold medal tonight, what a magic moment!!! -This was a great moment for the USA -I was hoping to see more comments about it here – Go USA!!!

Maybe I’m be in the minoriy opinion here on a related issue, I dunno. But I think 13 year olds should particpate. It’s a relatively recent change that bans those under 16 from competition.

But I’m thinking that some things, esp an area like gymnastics, are what a lot of kids love to do and are great at – if they beat a 20 year year old, so be it. Fot the overwhelming majority of the lads and lasses it would just be a very fond memory and a tale to proudly regale the grandkids with many years down the line. (Like highschool football glory days tales.)

Even with that in mind, it’s still wrong for a country to violate the current rules. So dissapointing all around.

I spent more time reading this thread than all the time I’ve spent watching the Olympics this year.
Yeah, they are probably underage. So what if the IOC actually does something about it? Are we going to see images and hear sob stories about 13 year-old little girls bawling when their medals are being taken away and handed to the mean Americans?
It’s all a show, people. The best thing athletics can give to young people’s development is learning how to lose and that life ain’t fair.

He Kexin, for example, was listed as 13 in November 2007 by a Chinese state news service.

He Kexin may be under age, but doesn’t it bother anyone that “she” is a “He”?
