I think Shawn works the beam like she’s in the floor Naustia works the beam as if she’s dancing ballet they both are amazing one is power the other has elegance

Shawn has since said that Coach Chow made her sit alone and focus in isolation during competitions. Nastia for the most part did the same thing because that's how she liked to focus and perform. Y'all are reaching with this "everyone ganged up on Shawn" narrative. Their coaches dictate their EVERY move on a competition floor

It's so funny watching this in 2016 and seeing the gymnasts taking one step out of tumbling without deducting!

I heard one of the judges say on Alicia Sacramone fx the step out of bounds Is a "silly mistake " .... now Simone Biles do it 2 times per floor routine.... my my how have the tables have turned 😮

The judges didn't just overscore everyone here. They played favorites. Gymnasts like Jana Bieger and Mattie Larson were significantly underscored IMO

Marta did not like them. She did not let Bieger compete on both bars and beam at the 2005 worlds as she should have, instead putting Sacramone on all 3 of vault, floor, and beam, despite bombing beam at all the events that year. Mattie often called her out publicly so she hated her.

I think Jana got gypped time after time... Marta supposedly "HATES falls & LOVES consistency" & also really DOESNT like to take "specialists" on teams unless they're out of this world amazing- like McKayla M. on Vault in London- but shes supposed to prefer gymnasts who are more "all arounders" who potentially could be called on to perform on almost ANY apparatus & hit their routines time after time... JANA HAS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE QUALITIES!!! She's not a huge stand out on any 1 apparatus, but, she's rock solid on EVERY ONE- she hits almost every time, she's so steady- she's a definite all around gymnast & she does generally score pretty well even if she doesn't do the absolute the HARDEST stuff- she still DOES do harder stuff than some of the other girls Marta likes more... You could have depended on Jana to put up a solid, high score that would have helped the team in Beijing on any event! I think she's definitely missing a bit of the "artistry & dance elements," & she doesn't have the lean, super straight, clean lines or build like a Nastia... But neither did Rebecca Bross & Marta was a pretty big fan of HER. I can't help but wonder if maybe her mom- might have rubbed some of the "powers the be" & big names in the sport the wrong way- what with her not being from the United States, a lot of times Europeans and Americans just express themselves VERY differently according to their cultural norms& it can rub people the wrong way. But, she's coached by her mom, and I think she got screwed out of so many team opportunities and bigger scores & along with that, missed out on a lot of top 3 finishes she deserved but maybe came in 4th or 5th by less than .3 or so. I can't understand what more Marta or anyone could have ASKED from Jana!! Which is what makes me think maybe it was something else that was the reason behind her getting screwed over so often. And if that IS the case- that's really a crappy thing to do- especially for "grown adults" to take out their own personal grudges with a PARENT on their kid! Poor Jana, 😭 she was amazing & rarely got rewarded for it or ever got the chance to show what she could do on the world stage...

Just like chellsie, Jana was able to hit all her routines and vault was probably the only thing she could have upgraded but that shouldn't have been enough for them to not treat her fairly. They DEFINITELY played favorites and while nastia is one of my all time favorite gymnasts, But her score being higher than it was on day 1 when she had all those mistakes on her dismount and late pirouettes was unexpected honestly. Her routine is no doubt difficult and one of the hardest even now but I feel like the judges were a bit biased.

Sad to say, she’d have been better off joining the German team- that would have at least gotten her to the Olympics- but definitely not a medal contender.

You cant even compare them.. Shawn was one of the FIRST girls to do that vault, and she upgraded her vault just for the Olympics.She only had like what? less than one month to REALLY train it.. mean while NOW that vault is standard, they even down graded it to a 6.3 because girls like gabby and wieber and maroney have had way more time to be able to perfect it.

Shawn should have won the Olympic all around. My opinion. Personally I don’t take to Nastia. She seems to walk around with her nose in the air thinking she’s better than everyone else. Her red carpet lifestyle now makes her so unrelateable. I don’t actually know what job she does for it 😂

I believe after her injury she a) couldn't land a double front on her bad ankle (see the 2007 Visas for her dramatic fall) and b) had grown a few inches to the point that she couldn't do the double layout anymore. I agree with you that the front + half was so often messy, but I don't know what other options her body gave her.

Her form on that dismount was so sloppy.

More more better than those of2016

Such a different mindset now, seeing Marta and these gymnasts, knowing what happened with Nassar.

literally i’ve never seen anyone else do that nastia luikin skill on beam other than nastia, GO BRIDGET!

...and i never seen anyone float across the beam with a mix of elegance, power, and precision...something Nastia lacks...Shawn definitely got robbed of the All-Around at the Olympics...idk why...possibly Nastia father's name, politics or both...Nonetheless...Shawn will forever be the 2008 Olympic GOAT...!

I do not believe USAG owns the rights to that broadcast.

how can you not think about an injury when your doing gymnastics like how many landings the injury can handle? of course your mind is going to be on that injury which takes your mind off your gymnastics a little bit

Why does these beam routines seem Harder in this era as compared to now ?

“Chow has coached Shawn since her first front roll!” Actually no, she went to another gym for three years before she went to Chow's.

Ok, but come on she started at Chow's as soon as it opened and she was only 6! That's pretty much from front rolls to Olympian!

Nastia got several shameless overscoring there

They were all overscored. Nastia's dismount on bars is very deductable and she didn't hit every handstand. Shawn however had several leg separations on beam, had a low chest on her skills and on her landing, her splits aren't on point and her dance elements on floor are really questionable which weren't all credited in Beijing.

Shades of Simone Biles of shawn's Floor Exercise

"Second place" is the worst thing"??!! What a horrible thing to say to someone you're coaching, especially your own daughter. It puts additional unnecessary pressure on Nastia, that's for sure.

I think you're taking this out of context. Valeri said it *about* Nastia, not to her, and he said it as someone who knew his daughter.

1:15:25 Whoa! How have I never noticed Andy Memmel's abs before?

I love shawn Johnson

I feel bad for Shawn ( 28:19 ) sitting all by herself she never talks to anyone or at least she didn't until she got to the Olympics with her new team anyway.... I really like her she´s got the talent and all... but still my fave are Nastia and Alicia

It was her and chows strategy to keep her in the right headspace

Nastia was so elegant! ❤

Nastia's bars have always been grosly overscored.

It was the most difficult bar routine in the world at the time. She made it look good too. Her score deserved to reflect that.

How did Alicia Sacramone score a 15.85 (9.65 execution) after stepping both feet out of bounds on Floor exercise?!

Sacramone shouldn't have been anywhere near Beijing, nor this competition.

Hw did alicia score a 15.95 on beam but samantha only got a 16. Dobte judges have eyes?

Shawn Johnson was ahead of her time.
