Day 15: A Rule You Would Change About the Sport

So many. Ok, first I'm going to say that I don't have a problem with the 'two per country' rule. I don't LIKE it, but I see the point. Its all fine and dandy for the US fans to complain about it, and if Jordyn had gotten in, and then the USA went 1-2-3 in the AA, it would have been great. But if Anastasia Grishina had gotten in and Russia had gone 1-2-3, we would have been whining like babies. So I see the point of it.

 
As for what I would change, I'm really not a fan of the tie-breaking rules. Just give them both a medal! Especially in the beam finals, when Catalina Ponor lost her medal, not because the judges gave Raisman a higher score, but because Raisman basically ASKED for a higher score (I know she didn't really, but basically, protesting is like asking for a higher score).
