I say the coverge and it was nice to see since I heard alot about the

Subject: WORLDS: explanation of scores just posted

Today the only score sheets available were the team totals as I
posted, plus the first page each for men and women's AA.  Therefore, I
do not have more details on the Australian men/women or Canadian
women.  I have posted EVERY score I received from day 2.

For that same reason, although I have the scores for many competitors
below 34th place (who competed on day 1), I do not know their current
rank after the second day.  Thus I marked those competitors with an *.

Hopefully more information will be available tomorrow!

Well, I don't know much, but from a Reuters newswire:

Russia:
Shabaev got 8.775 on rings, high bar.
Nemov fell off high bar for a 6.525, and an AA total of 51.8.
The Russian coach, Genken, says that perhaps they trained *too* hard
        for this meet and are tired.

Belarus:
Scherbo "displayed flawless play except the rings".
Ivankov fell off high bar for a 7.275.
Belarusian coach Vladimir Vatkini said that Ivankov had a shoulder
        injury two and a half weeks ago.

Subject: USA Men, women's scores and ESPN

Date sent:  4-OCT-1995 08:20:29

Well, all I can say is, despite having popped in the song "Get Ready for
This" this morning (no joke, just got it yesterday), I was NOT ready to see
what I saw with the US men this morning. I broke down in tears. Gratz to a
group who has been much maligned over the past year. I wish them well in
the optionals.

One comment only about the women: The US has generally been acknowledged as
having some of the best compulsory floors in the world. Are they really
that far lower than Romania? I wonder if the judging weren't a little low,
but I'd like to hear from someone at the meet in that regard, since I
cannot actually see the routines.

And finally, I saw ESPN's coverage, or lack thereof last night. I'm
extremely upset because I forgot to fast-forward to the end of my nationals
coverage, and lost all the event finals but vaulting. And I lost it for
ESPN's coverage. We never got to see anything of Kerri Strug in the second
half of the meet, and nothing of Kulikowski at all! Except for a shot of
her while she was waiting for Doni's floor score. Yeeuch. And, to top it
off, I really hate Mara Driscoll and the idiot working with her. She needs
to learn something, like how to announce. *steps off bitch-box" Sorry, ESPN
tends to make me mad. On the good side, they showed alot of good routines,
and I enjoyed what was shown. One real quick question, mroe of an opinion:
Who keeps saddling Amy Chow with classical music? It really doesn't suit
her.

OK, that's all for now. And, this aimed to Rachele, you're doing a great
job. Hope you're having fun, too. :)
