[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems silly to penalize the gymnasts for a “late” appeal (by 4 seconds?) if the facts are that Chiles’s routine was improperly scored and the Romanian gymnast did not in fact step out of bounds. How is it fair to ignore what actually happened and elevate procedure over facts. [/quote] It's dumb. It sounds like the core issue is them not wanting to take accountability for messing this event up. You can't can't prioritize procedure when you haven't been following the procedure in the first place. Regardless of the ending, this has completely stained the girls experience. [/quote] I think the core issue is Sabrina, the 2nd Romanian gymnast, is in the middle of them at 4th place while Jordan is now in 5th. They docked a point for stepping out of bounds even though Sabrina didn't. The Romanians asked for the wrong inquiry and then denied her appeal. If they looked at Sabrina's appeal then all three girls may have shared. [/quote]
