evidence to prove Chinese Womens Gymnastics are underage

[*The_West*]

3 of the team members of the Chinese womens gymnastics are possibly found to be under age. the Olympic committee it investigating. i knew it....

you knew you won all along, right?
why is there even a certain age you have to be to compete in the olympics? your gymnasts were good, but beaten hands down by the chinese.

Dude, do you think the IOC, which is a bitch to the chinese just like the US is a bitch to the chinese - will do anything?

Money talks. Even in the IOC which answers to no government.

How much do you think countries pay to 'look the other way' at athletes disqualifying factors? Think about it.

Gymnasts' parents "indignant" over age questions - Olympics - Yahoo! Sports

Good article on it. The problem is, they are showing government id's. Yea cuz the government wouldn't fake something like that.

Maybe I am retarded but WTF difference does it make how old a competitor is if they happen to be the best? I mean older or younger; does it REALLY matter?

how old do you have to be to compete?????? i thought it was pretty fucked up that the chick who sang in the opening was really a fat girl that wasn't allowed to be on the wires "flying" because of her weight.

That is what I was thinking. Why is there an age restriction. I say lets put the 6 year olds out there and see if they will flip over the entire building or something....lol.

From what I understand in many countries (I think China is one of them) children are actually given up by their parents at very young ages to go live in dorms, etc to become competitors. So does it really matter if that child is ready for competition at age 12 or age 7 or age 17? They've lived their entire lives for one thing = a shot at greatness through their athletic ability.

If you got beat by a 12 yr old/a 7 year old/a 17 year old or a 70 year old - you still got beat.

STFU about it and accept your defeat with humility and grace and enjoy the fact that you were bested by a worthy opponent.
