The decision outraged U.S. Olympic and gymnastics officials, and led to a torrent of online abuse against both Chiles and Ana Barbosu, the Romanian athlete who ended up with the bronze.
Just go look at the reply by the Romanian flair who agreed with me. (Unbeknownst to them, granted, due to my somewhat vague language)
It’s obvious very very few actually think Barbosu deserves the bronze.
There’s also no logically consistent way to reward Barbosu the bronze. Either you argue that judging mistakes should be rectified at which point Voinea should be awarded the bronze or judging mistakes shouldn’t be corrected at which point Chiles should be awarded the bronze as the judging mistakes (including allegedly accepting a late appeal) should stand.
But sure, keep pretending you think it’s Barbosu rather than Voinea who deserves the bronze.
Ahahaha… never ever in my life I have seen bigger cry babies and sore losers like americans.
Lol. Clearly I struck a nerve.
