Not that the gymnastics judging in Beijing has been beyond reproach -- China's Cheng Fei won a bronze medal last night in the vault despite landing once on her knees -- but Monday's uneven bars scoring, which kept Nastia Liukin from winning, or at least sharing, a second gold medal, finally brought attention to the peculiarities of a FIG judging system that is desperately in need of an overhaul.</description><pubDate>Mon, 18 Aug 2008 16:11:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>E.M.

Of course, if you're reading this, it's a safe bet you'll be watching the Michael Phelps coronation. If Phelps and his teammates win the 4x100 medley relay (bet the house, the vacation house and all your other possessions on it), he will become the all-time leader in gold medals in a single games with eight. The scheduled time of the race is 10:58 p.m., the final event of the swimming program in Beijing. "The U.S. should win unless something goes wrong," says Sports Illustrated's Brian Cazeneuve. "But keep in mind that the last time they swam this event at a major competition -- the world championships in 2007 -- something went very wrong. The team was disqualified because of an illegal exchange. Barring that, I just don't think there is a team with four swimmers at the level of the U.S."</description><pubDate>Sat, 16 Aug 2008 23:18:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Richard Deitsch: Daily Briefing, Aug. 15</title><link>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/olympics/2008/writers/richard_deitsch/08/15/briefing/index.html</link><guid>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/olympics/2008/writers/richard_deitsch/08/15/briefing/index.html</guid><description>Last month Mark Spitz ambled into Sports Illustrated's New York offices for a 25-minute meet and greet, one of the many whistle stops for Spitz on behalf of the pharmaceutical company Allergan, which pays him some handsome gold to work as a corporate spokesperson.

Bag the basketball, if you must. Torpedo the track and field. By all means, skip the swimming. But cancel all plans the night of the ladies' team final, Wed., Aug. 13, because the U.S. and China will be fighting World War III on four inches of the balance beam.</description><pubDate>Fri, 25 Jul 2008 21:44:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Swift: Picks for the U.S. men's gymnastics squad</title><link>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/em_swift/06/21/gymnastics.squad/index.html</link><guid>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/em_swift/06/21/gymnastics.squad/index.html</guid><description>The Olympic trials in men's gymnastics are over, and on Saturday night the selection committee named Paul Hamm and Jonathon Horton to the team that goes to Beijing (provided that a month from now Hamm shows USA Gymnastics that the broken bone in his hand has healed and he's ready to compete).</description><pubDate>Sun, 22 Jun 2008 00:35:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Catching up with Shannon Miller</title><link>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/richard_deitsch/06/01/miller.qa/index.html</link><guid>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/richard_deitsch/06/01/miller.qa/index.html</guid><description>On June 9, Shannon Miller, the most decorated gymnast in U.S. history, will join UCLA softball coach Sue Enquist, former LPGA golfer Hisako Higuchi and Algerian track star Hassiba Boulmerka as the latest class of inductees into the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame.
