Shawn and Nastia


It can get really tense watching gymnastics simply because you don't want someone to miss the bar, fall off the beam, or get hurt. But when the moves are done right, its a magnificent sight. Shawn Johnson and Nastia Luikin are a contrast of sorts....Shawn is short and powerful and Nastia is thin and elegant. If I were to follow what the NBC broadcasters were saying, it appeared that they were both not given as much due by the judges...but held their own and in the end performed so well any lesser scores would have been a clear injustice in front of the world. Congratulations both for finishing Gold and Silver, as you both had hoped it to end.
