Alicia Sacramone basically prevented the US from getting the gold by making some serious mistakes. Check out what they did to her fan site though, it's pretty sad:

That is completely against the concept of a team.

HORRIBLE.

Although I get why people are upset, she is human...and yes she made a mistake, but the beginning of routine was risky and everyone knew it...its not all her fault...if the coaches realized the risk, they should have discouraged her from doing that in the routine.

I saw it did anyone else? What she was attempting to do was veryy difficult.

Wow, that is messed up... I've watched pretty much the whole olympics... She did screw up royally... Her fall on the beam obviously led to her disaster on the floor... You can't blame her though, shit happens... None of this would be happening if the Chinese didn't use underage kids who didn't know any better and never got un-nerved...
