Tylenol as sponsor is so funny.

Did you guys watch??? I did not get a chance to see it

Saw some of it in the hotel room. The mens parralell bars was cool. Catalina Ponor was sadly watered down, but she's really not the best anyway.

nastia liukin on floor was a sore sight, the outfit and routine was terrible, i know for sure she was responsible for neither, i dont think she would do that to herself!!!

I didn't see it but it sounds pretty cool.

I saw the Hilton one last year or the year before that. I'm watching a rerun of the tylenol one right now, it's fun to watch, but not terribly exciting.

The guys on the p-bars was the best part! And listening to the enormously talented Lang Lang on piano.
