Said one JT poster a couple of days ago. Well done, Uchimura. You've proven one doubter wrong.

And on the day in question, as with the previous Olympics, he could not, could he? This time he could, and good on him and the men. Shame on you for taking it as some sort of personal pride you can try and bash others with. I came on here only to say congrats, as you should have, too. If the Chinese side were interviewed and a member said, "The pressure was enormous" I would have said the exact same thing about them if they had slipped up and said it was due to nerves at being at the Olympics.
So, as I came here to do, I say hats off to these guys, and I'm glad to see they pulled it off despite the nerves the other day. Shirai in particular went above and beyond, I'd say, though of course Uchimura is the favourite for many. China and Russia still also deserve a congrats.
