It's funny how they kept saying the winner has always ended up being Olympic all-around champion, and gabby got the highest score only to end up being AA champion. :D
she actually did win this meet it was just because the usa could have 3 compete but one wouldnt be apart of the official competition. So gabbies scores in this were the highest but she isnt the official winner
@@angeliastone-tolcher2386 I think what they said is almost true. Aliya mustafina is the true winner in At&t 2011 but usa rob her with only 0.062 difference total point lower than jordyn weiber after she fail to make second jump but Tim Digget from usa sport commentator said aliya already complete her jump in dance floor. Aliya not fell from bar in uneven bar like Jordyn weiber but she got deduct high point than Jordyn Weiber. Aliya become the bronze medalist in Olympid London All Around Women Gymnastic together with Gabby Douglas and Viktoria Komova the silver medalist.
the winner of the american cup did win the olympics.... not technically but Gabby did have the highest score, and then ended up winning the all around.... the link between the american cup and the olympics is kind of a cool fact!
I’m watching this in Feb. 2020, and loving it. Wow, if they’d only known Gabby’s future! What she had in front of her is incredible. It’s cool they had her “competing” in the American Cup, then she goes on to win the Olympic gold in the All Around. ⚡️🤸♀️⚡️
Man Jordyn's scoring in this competition was ridiculous. Had they scored her more accurately all year maybe she wouldnt have been surprised to be out of the AA? a 14.966 for that kitty beam routine? and that huge arch on her bars set
She was dealing with a stress fracture in her leg, did you not think about that? She still qualified FOURTH overall, and would have been in the AA if not for the assbackward two per country rule (the USA did participate in the request for it, but it’s acceptance makes the sport the least respected and most disdained by all other sports). She ended up performing brilliantly for the team and helped get that gold medal- no small feat in itself. Were some of the scores here overdone? No disagreement. Do various other countries do that domestically? Absolutely. Jordyn will always be an Olympic champion, and AA world champion. And you would be what exactly? A mouthpiece with a keyboard.
I also forgot to add to my comment that John Orozco's story is surreal! He's basically saying that no matter where you're from, you can still have hopes, dreams, and aspirations, and still be a great gymnast.
Just wanna let you know I'm so appreciative of NF101 for uploading the video. Since I quit the sport I've been much out of the loop and seeing this uploaded and watching it just made me remember why I love it! Thank you so much! xx
I love how they're saying that every US gymnast that had won the cup in the Olympic year has gone on to win the all around in the Olympics and Gabby Douglas by score won and then she went on to win the Olympics! Just saying!
A truly humble gymnast would've pointed out Gabby's score even while winning. I used to feel bad for Jordyn, but her interview at the end there dampened that.
i love how gabby had the best score but wasn't even considered a competitor, it just shows how well she will do in the olympics this week where it actually counts! was a little sad though when nastia was interviewed and said bars was her strong point... a lot of disappointment when she fell on bars in olympic trials and lost her spot on the team. she will always be recognized as an amazing gymnast though! thanks for posting this video!
The reason I watch this (2012 AT&T American Cup) is because I admire Jordyn Wieber, and Alexandra Raisman on what they accomplished, how they social with each other, and in other ways they're seen at this competitions. Though there were errors, and Uneven Bars is not Alexandra's. I would've like to have seen Alexandra's Vault, if they had including it.
@ciara beth If your think or are just saying that I forgot Gabby Douglas, I didn't forget her. It's that I'm not fond of competition like I am with Alexandra Raisman and Jordyn Wieber.
I was there yesterday and it was so amazing to watch all of the gymnasts compete. We all know that the scores were inflated, (I mean, come on, it's Scam!), but being able to see everyone in person was super cool. I just can't wait for the Olympics!
Very true. The US had such strong all-around competitors which has to happen with a five-person team. Marta was looking for fantastic all-arounders and she found them in Gabby, Aly, and Jordyn. Whereas in Olympics past, a lot of the competitors were specialists, that can't happen now. I really wish they would allow more than two gymnasts in the all-around competition.
Leave it to the alternate to technically score the highest. Haha. I have high expectations for our teams in this year's olympics. Have never missed watching an olympic gymnastics event, so I am super super stoked!
I am a fan of all gymnasts as well. I'll cheer on the US first but I wouldn't want Russians to fall and get hurt for the Americans to win. Every gymnasts worked hard so I have to give them all credit. The gymnasts that did the best deserve to win. I hate how people keep saying the Russians should have won regardless of their mistakes. I have problem with people who pretend they love gymnastics and always choose Russians or Romanians for artistry to make themselves look good.
the intro for this competition was epic, yes we over use that word sometimes but they introduced Madison Square Garden, then Nadia, Mary Lou, Carly and then Nastia, gymnastics is full of great story and drama
Ok I'm a MASSIVE Shawn Johnson fan so seeing Gabby compete reminded me of her. Gabby looks so nice just like Shawn. She is also VERY talented. (Love her floor music too!)
I'm from Greece and the american cup is now on tv with greek coverage. The greek commentator said that Chelaru's and Raisman's bars were great, that Wieber's beam was amazing and Raisman even better. They said Chelaru was Georgia Simpson. They also said that an avarage age for a female gymnast is 24 years old!!! And for some reason they think that the americans invited the gymnasts they considered promising (!!!) I'm really starting to appreciate the NBC commentators
Thankyou so much for posting this! and in such good quality! Im not able to watch anything like this in the UK so i greatly appreciate everything you post! Thanks again! :D x
I have to say that one of the male announcers, (the one with the less deeper voice) has a very condescending and presumptuous tone in his comment. Besides this, great set of athletes.
Your not lone in hating him 😂😂😂😂 I'd like to see him and elfie go out and try the moves these guys are doing. Lol some of their comments are ridiculous.
Those are the names I'm thinking too. I'm excited to see where Nastia is with her bars at Visas, because I'd love her to be our bars specialist. I really wish there were still 6 spots!
She did not choke. Simply put it, Aly and Gabby had a higher score. If you watched the AA qualifications you would see that she was fabulous in all her routines. Just tiny deductions that moved her into fourth overall and third on her team.
Wow... nice work, Gabby Douglas! Wish we could have seen her bars. And I thought they would show Aly's 16.1 Amanar since she got the same score on the same vault as Wieber. I saw the podium video and thought it was great!
I agree with the Russian Federation for never having competed at AT & T again. Because FIG said that only those who had competed in a world championship could compete in the AT & T competition, yet USA put Jordyn Wieber and Dalton to compete and FIG simply do anything about it.
Nah if you haven't heard of her before then you're not going to know if she was having an off day or is actually not good. This was an off day! It was her first international competition if I remember correctly. Her name is Rebecca Tunney and she's 15. She had a strong finish in the all-around. I don't know if NBC showed her, but BBC sure did. She has a very nice floor routine.
Before the American Cup was a USAG sanctioned competition and now it's an official part of the FIG World Cup. So the top 8 AA in the last Worlds are invited (Weiber and Raisman placed in the top 8 last year). If a person is injured or withdraws, then the 9th AA gets invited and then the 10th so and so forth. Gabbie also competed but her scores didn't count, because she was subbed as an alternate for Jarosch. Some countries tend to take some liberties by choosing who to send (Tunney for Whelan)
The only Romanian in decades who can swing bars? That's kind of harsh for gymnasts like Sofronie, Nistor and Porgras who made olympics/worlds finals. And I was surprised they chose to show Moors, and the Romanians on bars instead of floor, same about Raisman and vault. But thank for uploading. Larisa's beam was beautiful and I'm so happy for Gabby, maybe she didn't officially win but I'm sure this will help her build her confidence
I couldn't help but notice the flag lady SMILING SO CHEEKILY when she was raising the flag when Gabby was going into her third pass. She did the same thing at Visas but she's still my favorite American gymnast right now!
@bieoliv I went to the American Cup in 2000 and Prudunova (a Russian) dominated. There was no overscoring for the Americans there because there was no competition. She was awesome.
I hope Jordyn can fix those mistakes like she said, but it's all about peaking at the right time, right? I remember Nastia had some mistakes here and there before the olympics, and she ended up winning the olympics. Also, I really wanted to see Aly's vault, but I loved her floor exercise! Gabby's last pass in floor was incredible, too. :)
@trasywilma Jordyn was trying out new moves. She added .4 tenths in difficulty. They're not ready just yet. Plus, she had an off routine. Check out her beam from 2011 American Cup it's FANTASTIC! Or her all-around beam routine from worlds.
@bendonna I think they were trying to establish that those who won the American Cup will most likely won Olympic All-Around title, since that what happened with nadia, mary lou, carly and nastia. Shannon is not part of this "supposed" pattern - which does not make sense, btw.
I definitely agree with you. I've watched many gym competitions with commentators from all over the world and the only ones I can stand and enjoy are the ones on BBC. They're a bit biased for the Brits, but they're good at talking about the positiveness of each gymnast and the different technical aspects/difficulty of their routines. All the other ones are too gossipy and annoying while the BBC is both interesting and educational. I wish other countries (NBC!) would copy their style.
She's going to try out for the team. She can't just say "ya, I'll do it" and be instantly added to the team. Even with her Olympic medals, she is still required to try out for the team. But she has said that she is training again and fully intends on trying out for the team during the Olympic trials at the end of June.
It's not often I say that I love Tim Daggett...however, today...."A lot of people will get mad at me for saying that, but they know it's the truth." That was pretty hilarious.
It's funny how they kept saying the winner has always ended up being Olympic all-around champion, and gabby got the highest score only to end up being AA champion. :D

Awwwh Chow looks so proud of Gabby after her FX :D
"look at the muscles in her forearms absolutely rippling as she applies the sweat bands.."
thanks al

John Orozo is the true definition of a fighter.
Aww, it was so cute when Danell's step dad said 'thats my boy' and hugged him after his amazing high bar routine.
Personally, I like watching the NBC coverage first for the drama and then the BBC coverage to see the lesser known gymnasts.
John orozco is a true fighter. Such an inspiration
I'm glad Jordyn grew out those chola brows omg
@Silas McCoy right?! Those poor things
Lol, Jordyn Weiber is so hot. #WifeGoals
Marcus Hamner No Mykayla is way hotter being beautiful not ugly like Jordan Marcus!
I also forgot to add to my comment that John Orozco's story is surreal! He's basically saying that no matter where you're from, you can still have hopes, dreams, and aspirations, and still be a great gymnast.
Just wanna let you know I'm so appreciative of NF101 for uploading the video. Since I quit the sport I've been much out of the loop and seeing this uploaded and watching it just made me remember why I love it! Thank you so much! xx
Omg...John Orozco??!? Yes please!!! Skills and looks...can't ask for more than that : )
I love how they're saying that every US gymnast that had won the cup in the Olympic year has gone on to win the all around in the Olympics and Gabby Douglas by score won and then she went on to win the Olympics! Just saying!
Gabby is so good. She's an incredibly gymnast and if you cant see it then you dont watch enough gymnastics
A truly humble gymnast would've pointed out Gabby's score even while winning. I used to feel bad for Jordyn, but her interview at the end there dampened that.
What do you mean?
It's funny how Gabby's higher score, something that wasn't expected, portends what happened at the Olympics...
love Larisa on beam and that great, aggressive double turn!
Yes, thanks for post this years American Cup! So much more enjoyable to watch without all the commercials! Thanks again!
i love how gabby had the best score but wasn't even considered a competitor, it just shows how well she will do in the olympics this week where it actually counts! was a little sad though when nastia was interviewed and said bars was her strong point... a lot of disappointment when she fell on bars in olympic trials and lost her spot on the team. she will always be recognized as an amazing gymnast though!
thanks for posting this video!
that is just so awesome! Gabby is amazing, as are all of the USA gymnasts!
I love that gymnasts from Romania always wear their national colors :)

Ok I'm a MASSIVE Shawn Johnson fan so seeing Gabby compete reminded me of her. Gabby looks so nice just like Shawn. She is also VERY talented. (Love her floor music too!)
Every time someone hits their vault, I replay it just to watch the coach's reaction in the background.
Thank You so very much for uploading these videos!!! :)
I love that you posted the whole show. I love watching gymnastics!
I was a gymnast from the Bronx for 14 years. Went to Spotlight in Pelham Manor, NY then Gym Cats in Tuckahoe, NY. #JohnOrozco!
I think Aly is the going to win the Gold Medal at EF for FX in the olympics this year!
Yep!
I'm from Greece and the american cup is now on tv with greek coverage. The greek commentator said that Chelaru's and Raisman's bars were great, that Wieber's beam was amazing and Raisman even better.

i love the story of sammy and i had to cry it shows that you an be a star gymnastic even if you are poor or dont have the best view
I wish I had time to watch the whole thing. I will definitely be doing so later on. Thanks for posting.
Thankyou so much for posting this! and in such good quality! Im not able to watch anything like this in the UK so i greatly appreciate everything you post! Thanks again! :D x

omg john orozco i'm crying
Thank you for uploading these!!!
I love that the thumbnail is nastia
Thank you so much for uploading this!!!!
Thanks for uploading this. Great quality!
I hate Tim dagget. Must have been such a burn on him. Gabby Davis smh
sportzstar1120 first of all it's Gabby Douglas second of all you are rude
Lance Marshall It was Tim who kept calling her "Gabby Davis".
Lance Marshall 🤦♂️
Your not lone in hating him 😂😂😂😂 I'd like to see him and elfie go out and try the moves these guys are doing. Lol some of their comments are ridiculous.
Nina Ouellette do you realize Tim is an Olympian? And that Elfie was an elite gymnast too? They know how hard it is😂
Jordyn is almost identical to Vanessa Atler, same strengths and same uneven bar weakness
Thank you soo much for posting...
Those are the names I'm thinking too. I'm excited to see where Nastia is with her bars at Visas, because I'd love her to be our bars specialist. I really wish there were still 6 spots!
thks 4 postin' it!!!

The joys of watching a competition where they only show like 3 different gymnasts at all.
Marcel Nguyen and Daniel Leyva are both ridiculously handsome. Marcel looks like a model.
I agree with the Russian Federation for never having competed at AT & T again. Because FIG said that only those who had competed in a world championship could compete in the AT & T competition, yet USA put Jordyn Wieber and Dalton to compete and FIG simply do anything about it.
Star Tetrahedron olympics wasn’t rigged and guess what Americans beat them in a lot just like they would have done here 😂😂😂
THANKS FOR POSTING! GREAT QUALITY
Nastia looks amazing.
Awww, Jordyn's coach does a hugeee celebration right after her vault at the very beginning :')
Thank you so much for the upload. :3
Right on! Thanks for uploading this!
thank you soooooo much!!!!!!!
That girl Gabby Douglas is amazing, she will be world champ soon!
John Orozco

OMG! Thaaaaaaank you so much!!!
thx by the upload . Obrigado por upar . Greetings from Brazil .
thank you so much for saying that. it made me feel a lot better. I'm only 17 so maybe i have some time to get there...
Beautiful vault!! Amanar.
The only Romanian in decades who can swing bars? That's kind of harsh for gymnasts like Sofronie, Nistor and Porgras who made olympics/worlds finals.

thx so much!!!
do this for nationals n trials pls
I like how Jordyn handled Andrea's annoying question about Gabby. She was classy and didn't fuel any drama.
What a great name for a channel girl! People will be sure to remember it 🤣🤣🤣
I definitely agree with you. I've watched many gym competitions with commentators from all over the world and the only ones I can stand and enjoy are the ones on BBC.

thankyou thankyou thankyou. i live in the uk so when in switched over to nbc i couldn't watch it
What does Chow say after Gabby asks him for a calculator?
I can't understand but I love how they both laugh so much.
@MIZZOU197 It was on the online stream that you can find on the universal sports website.
I know. I was really looking forward to seeing her in the AA. I'm glad that Gabby won but I really missed seeing Jordyn compete.
Yeah and she did OKAY at the Pac Rims falling on beam and vault. I agree. I really wanna see how she is at Nationals.
She's going to try out for the team. She can't just say "ya, I'll do it" and be instantly added to the team. Even with her Olympic medals, she is still required to try out for the team. But she has said that she is training again and fully intends on trying out for the team during the Olympic trials at the end of June.
It's not often I say that I love Tim Daggett...however, today...."A lot of people will get mad at me for saying that, but they know it's the truth." That was pretty hilarious.
absolute legend!!!
I wanted to see Iordache's floor :( thanks for uploading!
Thank you so much! The live broadcasting was suckish!!!!!
I love the beginning fluff!
Is it me or am i the only one who thinks it's really cool that John does a move named after Valeri?
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH :))
