This is some baby back bullshit.
The judges fucked up and didn’t give her the appropriate difficulty score for her routine. Her coaches realized this and challenged successfully, raising her score to win the bronze. And then they decided to revert to the original score because the coaches didn’t challenge within 60 seconds? Even though there’s video evidence showing that they actually did?
Ffs give her the medal already, she earned it fair and square.
But don’t worry, the judge hearing the appeal also has close personal ties to the Romanian Olympic program (whose athlete came in fourth, and stands to benefit from the committee not hearing the appeal), which were disclosed to everyone except the Americans. Nothing weird about that.
Says a lot if “the Americans” were the only ones in the entire world to not know about it.

She earned it, it’s hers, she gets it.
Oh for fuck’s sake. It’s time to just rip the bandaid off of this one.
It happens that two bronze medals are given too.
At this point all the bronze coating has worn off that cheap thing.
