placing "silver"



I know I am not a gymnast... I actually only went one day when I was younger (to a class).  I don't know anything about the rating system, or what is "good" or "bad" other than falling off or holding a landing.


What I do know is how I can sweat & yell at the gymnasts (USA) when they are competing... I was so sad for them that those little Chinese won.  But more frustrated (as I am sure they were) when they kept slipping up.  

But like Spencer says "Silver is great Whitney", yeah I know... I just like gold better.  Geeze hope none of my children go out for the Olympics otherwise I need to learn how to appreciate silver/bronze more.

Here is to the individual competition coming up!!  GO USA!
