There were definitely still areas to quibble about, but tonight the end result was satisfactory. Shawn Johnson finally gets her gold— yea, Shawn! Nastia Liukin adds to her collection with another silver. Of course, the Chinese gymnasts each had pretty major errors, so if that HADN’T been the result, well I just don’t know how ugly a post I would have to have written!

And then on the high bar, Jonathan Horton pulled off a silver!

So, that was a pretty good night for American gymnastics.

The U.S. women end up with 8 medals overall, and the men end up with two.
