Yeah, I was being overly simplistic. What you describe also explains why I also prefer "folkstyle". More "wrestling". Still interesting to watch but I find my mind drifting watching the olympic stuff.

That takedown was sick. I think that match was the only wrestling I've thoroughly enjoyed during the olympics, for most of the reasons you pointed out. Too much defensive fighting.

Yeah, it's a really freaky event with what I can only guess are masochistic psychopaths for competitors. So, I'm on board with it.

I got stoned for the first time in a LONG time a couple of days ago and watched some rythmic. Rhythmic gymnastics ON WEED is the greatest thing ever. Period. Then I watched it yesterday while sober, and could only think "what the fuck is happening here?", and scrambled for my remote.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing them with Bolt in the rotation. Should be pretty awesome.

I know. I just like being an ass. Anyways, what a weird musical choice for a floor routine.
I think it may be a matter of taste. I prefer the athletic parts of gymnastics, though I did enjoy Ponor's expressive elements a lot. Upon rewatching, Aly was clearly the better athletically, but I will agree that Ponor owned in the dance department. I don't care about dancing though. I like to see people flipping and…

I still like Maroney's steelyness in that situation. I have noticed that the men's gymnastics seems to have a much more congenial atmosphere, though. I am guessing it is because they are older and also because it is less high-profile for anyone not Chinese, but the men's has been pretty classy on the sidelines.
@avclub-ec97b3455d25310a00e49c9abf0633a1:disqus : you totally should check that out. Ponor did hers to to an instrumental of "Fever", and Raisler did hers to (I have no idea how to spell this, so I will spell it in the Dylan bootleg manner:) "Ha-va-na-gi-la".

In that distance. Finishing like that. I'm surprised he didn't just pass the fuck out.
