It's the end of the world as we know it...

Politics, philosophy, the law, current events, left leaning debates, religion, baseball, football, pop culture, growing up Greek, random events in my life...whatever hits my mind at the time.

Hamm keeps Gold

I am really glad that they decided that Paul Hamm got to keep the Olympic Gold. Any scoring errors were not his fault. The fact that the FIG president Bruno Grandi had asked Hamm to voluntarily turn over his medal was disgusting in the first place. Moreover, if you know you are behind going into the final event, you turn it up just a touch - maybe that's the difference. It's a silly argument. You can't say that Y still follows X and is still before Z. Maybe someone behind one slips in an extra X to try to pull ahead. I feel they made the right decision.
