I was before, but after her performance at the Rio Test Event, I'm not anymore. She's made tremendous improvements; it's more than just a spinning ball of death now:

Yes, Maggie is on the schedule! Hope she's healed and ready and it doesn't end up sad to watch.

This. I'm sure her coaches know fully what she's capable of, but if we watch her blow out a knee in real time I will probably never recover.

I'm actually interested to see what BAGA has to saw about Louis Smith's recent Instagram post:
By the way, this was a photo of Carly Patterson when she was 16.

Louis Smith is gross and his arrogance astounds me. I hope there is some actual action taken against him because sexualizing underage gymnasts is unacceptable IMO. Actually, sexualizing any athlete because of the attire they need to wear to compete is just very unnecessary. So I hope something happens, but I'm doubtful that anything will

Oh, Louis :confused: he needs to take a leaf out of his teammates books in how to conduct himself both in person and online. He can try and cover it up as appreciating that gymnastics 'gives you shape' but we all know that was not his line of thought when he posted that picture and vulgar caption.
ETA: judging by Carly Patterson's twitter, she wasn't offended by the post. I still don't think it was suitable or necessary though.

May the best woman represent Romania I guess... looks like Ponor is really pushing it on bars:

Statement by Viktoria Komova translated by a reliable source on Tumblr:
I can't believe that's it... no more Komova, feeling gutted right now.
Also, Ksenia Afanasyeva just got more surgery on her ankle... her chances of Rio seem to diminish with every passing day:
Maria Paseka has also been out for awhile now due to an injury, not sure where she is in terms of rehabilitation and training.
Team Russia, breaking hearts since the beginning of the millennium.

Ugh! It's so sad! For sure team USA won't have that much difficulty getting that team gold now. But what's with these injuries springing right before Rio.
