nycchic24 Posted August 27 Report Share Posted August 27 actually i dont blame paul hamm, i would not return the gold medal either but if you want to be technical..the FIG sent a letter asking him via the USOC.. and they refused to deliver the message to paul hamm stating that its an insult. same thing happened to Germany i believe in the equestrian events to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bxbomb Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 as stated in a previous thread on this matterIf the 1972 Russian basketball team gives back the gold to the US squadIf the russian figure skating pair gives the gold to the canadian pair that deserved it (after the French judge admitted she took a bribe for the russian pair)If the Korean kid who got the piss beat out of him by ROy Jones Jr in his hometown of Seoul and the judges gave it to him instead of roy if all the above gave back their medals then Hamm should ,but precedence has been set so if he doesnt want to he shouldnt give it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicman Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 IOC and the gymnastic federation fucked up. just give a second gold to the korean.and if iwas the korean, i would return the silver medal as a sign of protest. judges have to be held accoutable for errors like these, not the gymnasts.

clubrat88 Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 heard on the radio that the points they deducted from him accidentally were then not deducted when he had more than 4 pauses on one of his bar routines...so in all honesty...the score he got was the score he would have got anyways...

lolahotass Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Paul Hamm deserved to win.. plain and simple.The judging committee should have paid attention to the point value, etc...
