Something that has gone unnoticed by most of the media.
American TV Neglected the Saddest Story in the Olympics [UPDATE]
WTF is wrong with the IOC here? Quite inconsistent. The absolutely robbed this young girl of a medal. So wait, the can review tape on a gymnastics event, but they can't review tape to see some kid didn't start the timer when it should have? Really? Really?

ince the incident, it has come out that the timekeeper for the event was a 15 year old British volunteer. Really? This isn’t fencing class at the Y, this is the Olympics. There was nobody in the entire world with any timekeeping experience that could have been called upon to take on such an important task? When I was 15, I wouldn’t have had the attention span to do that job either. Whoever made the choice to put a child in charge of the clock for an Olympic event should be fired.

A 15 year old time keeper in the biggest stage of sporting events? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME....lol REALLY?
**** the IOC. This is absolute garbage. They've overturned gymnastic events, boxing events, and even cycling events and yet .......refuse their complaint?
