Subject: The Latest Discussion Topics

I have been busy lately, but I wanted to comment on some of the
things being discussed lately on the list.
First, the discussion of Olympic Team coach for the U.S. Women.
If Bela has Dominique and Kerri on the team he should be the coach. I think
the Bela/Steve fight is over so he would probably would be fair. Bela is
simply the most experienced.
Second, this Kim Zmeskal question. I am a big fan but I think it
is very premature to put her on a prediction list to make the U.S. team not
to mention individual medals. Remember she has not competed an amateur meet
in a long time. I think its great she is trying, but I have not seen
anything to convince me she has a chance.
Lastly, gymnastics vs. figure skating question. Figure skating
had the Tonya/Nancy mess. This proved very profitable. More importantly
USAG does a terriable job promoting meets. They NEVER try to reach out
beyond the gymnastics community to increase attendance. Also meets need to
be different. Make them faster, have less particpants, sign famous gymnasts
to contracts so they have to come (Shannon Miller at the Goodwill Games),
and stick with and easy format that anyone can understand.

Just my .02 cents,

Mikester Bee

Subject: Gymnastics Tours

I think that gymnastics would be better if they did tours in places that
are not know for gymnastics. In Michigan, there is alwyas some kind of
skating tour Stars on Ice, Discover, World Professional or whatever.
However gymnastics is not big here. Many people will not get to see
the Rock and Roll challenge, or Burt and Nadia or someone from another
coutry. I have never seen a gymnstics meet and I would like to see one,
but with $25 a ticket and the meet in some place like California I guess
I will have to stick to what is shown on television. 6

Subject: One More Thing

The attack on Nancy Kerrigan was in Detroit, but even before that the
arena was full becuase it was skating. I think that whoever plans the
sites should do like the IOC and the Olympics and try and rotate the
sites of events so that everybody has the chance to watch. 6

Subject: Chunichi Cup

I just received my February IG yesterday, and as I was glancing at it this
morning, I noticed that there were two American men in the competition, but
it didn't appear as though there were any American women. Is that true, and
why so?

By the way, I was watching a TV commercial today and though I don't remember
who it was for, there is a commercial on the air that has some of the
American gymnasts in it.

Happy Gymnastics,
Shari

Hopefully we'll see the USA on the medal stands in Atlanta.

Doesn't USAG already have a club directory? I could swear I had a copy a
few years back. The NCAA may have a list of college gymnastics programs
(anyone know?).

Subject: Write CBS!

I am posting this message to urge EVERY SINGLE MEMBER of Gymn to take 5
minutes to e-mail CBS regarding this weeks The Client episode. Even
those of us who missed the episode have read enough about the episode
here on Gymn to understand the ridiculous stereotypes that The Client
created and perpetuated in the episode. Ten or twenty messages will not
make a difference to CBS executives, but 650 might. We want CBS to know
that we will not stand for their spreading their ignorance of our sport
to the American public. We want them and the public to know that
gymnasts whose parents or coaches want their success more than they do
themselves simply do not make it to high levels of competition. Nothing
can compel a person to dedicate themselves mentally and physically to
the goal of excellence except for true love for gymnastics. Other
stereotypes may exist in perhaps 1% of elite gymnasts, but certainly not
every stereotype in a single athlete. In addition, these problems are
NOT unique to gymnastics, but are found in the top levels of all sports,
and are being addressed and fought throughout the gymnastics community.

Before you compose your message, sit a moment and reflect on the reasons
that you love gymnastics. Think about the valuable lessons that the
sport teaches young people. Think about the sense of accomplishment a
5-year-old gains when he or she completes his or her first cartwheel.

I hope that I have gotten each one of you a little fired up and made you
realize that the only way to get this message across is together. My
letter to CBS will not make a difference, but all of our letters can.

The address at which you can contact CBS is: marketing@cbs.com

Happy gymming,
Kerry

Actually ABC aired the European Gymnastics championships sometime last
fall. But I agree gymnastics deserves more coverage.

Subject: Non US gymnasts

Okay, how in the world can some gymnasts train here in the US because their
own countries have such poor training facilities, but compete for a different
country still? Like Bogi, she has trained in the US for years, but yet she
can compete for Belarus at the Olympics? How? Eileen Diaz for Puerto Rico,
Yelena Piskun? Isn't there a rule to keep your citzenship you have to live
in that country so many days of the year? Why should she be able to train in
leisure in whatever country she want's while the rest of the team doesn't
have the money to and are training in their home country in a totally
different situation; coaches, equipment, hours, etc.?

Subject: Re: gymnastics vs. figure skating

Actually, ABC aired the European Cup last year, which is a
different meet.
Btw, did ABC air the 1987 Euros? Someone posted that they had
covered this meet since 1975, missing 1994, but I don't recall seeing
1987 Euros on TV.

Yes, according to the Minneapolis issue of TV Guide. And guess what?
It shares air time with figure skating! :)

Subject: Re: Olympic coaching

Christopher Scott wrote that he thought the head coach is always the
coach of the number one ranked gymnast. I thought that Shannon Miller won
the 1992 Olypic Trials but wasn't Bela still the head coach?
Just wondering,
