Moments like Lake Placid “Miracle” Gold for example...(which I wasn’t even alive for)

But I was for the U.S. “Magnificent 7” Gymnastics team winning Gold in Atlanta...after Kerri Strug stuck her landing with a broken ankle. That was awesome :)!

Among other special moments!

Except for the fact there should NEVER have been a 10 awarded ever. And once one was awarded t was the only “good” mark meaning they are unable to differentiate or distinguish. Which was the original “point” to the point system.

Which is when gymnastics ceased being a sport and joined “rhythmic gymnastic” as pure spectacle. A chance to see prepubescent girls all but naked.
