Okay you guys.Stop bashing her because I'd like to see you guys get up on a beam and do what she does.
I doubt you could even do a round-off bachandspring!
She has talent,skill,grace,agility,and dedication and if you don't see that you have something wrong with your head!
She could be team captin it's not about form it's about how you work with your teammates!DUH!
Bad form?ha.How about you go do a full of a beam!
She has the strentgh to get medals!Oh and if she does get medals I'll personally laugh in your face!
To all you Aly haters:Tell me when your good enough to be in the olympics Okay?

So sick of seeing people bash Aly because her style of gymnastics is not what they would like it to be. Gymnastics has always and will always be a subjective sport. Aly has prominent strengths and noticeable weaknesses, that's obvious. So, what is the point of making such an empty threat? No one cares and trust me, you won't be missed.

If she wins floor and beam in London, I might have to stop watching "Artistic Gymnastics" after being an intense fan for 33 years. If I want to watch just tumbling, I can watch a tumbling championship.

I expect her to medal on floor just as strongly as I expect Maroney to win gold on vault (and she definitely has a good chance to take gold there). Beam and the all-around, on the other hand... I expect her to qualify for finals on both (not counting the 2-person per country limit), but I don't know about medals, and of course she'll have to qualify first or second among the Americans to actually compete in those finals.

"leads the team in bad form"? How, exactly? Her bars aren't great, but she's made /massive/ improvements to those since, say, Classics (and I think she's still posting higher scores than most of Romania, heh). Her Amanar isn't as stellar as the others on the team (when Douglas hits, that is), and she's had some scary ones, but I still think it's probably better than the Amanars we'll see from the other countries (except Komova, who likely will be beautiful as always). And I certainly hope you don't mean she has bad form on floor or beam... cause I'd have to laugh in your face if you tried to claim that. And furthermore, being team captain doesn't have anything to do with your gymnastic form - it's how you work with the other team members to motivate them to do their best. Remember that A-sac was team captain at 2011 Worlds without even competing!

bad taste... rather see an true artistic gymnast win beam and floor. It's not all about chucking the skills with fugly form.

Her form isn't as bad as compared to the Russians and some of the Chinese. Even some of the Romanians have nasty tumbling form. Haters are gonna hate. Aly is a huge gold medal challenger for floor and beam....time to face reality people.

aly raisman is the best tumbler. she deserves credit because although she has some form issues, she still is one of the best in both the united states and in the world. she is incredibly talented and inspiring. continually pointing out she has bad form on every single video of her is just pathetic and in "bad form". i hope she gets what she deserves in london.

winning it in london... alright lets not get carried away. she is only gonna have to go through jinnan lui mustafina wiener ponor and ross.... i doubt she'll even make finals. and yeahhh bad form is an understatement.
