What We Saw Last Night
--Jay at 10:05 AM--
Last night we watched the judges give the Greek gymnast on the rings an inflated score calculated to be impossible for anyone to match. He was good. Others were better, with cleaner holds in position and perhaps even landings.
It was bad enough when they appeared to score manipulatively toward the end of the men’s all-around, but I’m not sure I have ever seen anything so obviously “let the Wookie win” as last night. Guess they didn’t want a riot from the largely Greek audience.
Did anyone non-Greek see it differently than we did? It seemed jaw-droppingly obvious to both of us.
