There is no way that Fei rightly defeated her. It wasn't just the landing, but she was technically flawed at at least two other points she should have been deducted for. It you don't know anything about scoring then simply keep your mouth shut rather than simply say the judges were fair. They were anything but. But I'll tell you what's worse. The Americans did not stand up for one of their own, and that truly sucks. Sacramone should feel as patriotic right now as Benedict Arnold--only in reverse. It's her own country who did not stand up for her, the gutless cowards. She has every right to be bitter, and should be. And another thing. What happened to her in the Team competition could have happened to anybody. Leukin and Johnson weren't perfect either. It was just one of those unfortunate nights that even great athletes have. Look at that winter Olympics skating when Sarah Hughes, who career-wise couldn't even carry Michelle Kwan's skates--nevertheless got the gold over Kwan and that Japanese girl because the latter two underperformed. On a given night, anything can happen, and I mean anything. Hughes got the gold because she did skate the best that night, even though her performance was good but certainly not special. But it was still better than what those other two could muster. That simply happens sometimes in sport. The normally superior performer doesn't always perform as they should at the worst possible time. It's simply called life. Of course Sacramone was robbed.
