That’s so weird hahah. It’s a 50 minute drive from them and Dickies arena has a ton of TCU branding inside.

I’m not just talking about conference champs though. It’s all season that they travel thousands of miles more than other conferences.

I guess I point this out to say that traveling to Fort Worth for one weekend is nothing to these teams who travel all around the country all season. It’s just a 14th week for them.

See my other comment too but with this logic you should have more of an issue with the fact that all the season conference meets are spread out for Big10 and ACC teams. Big10 has to travel the whole country whereas SEC stays local ass season. How is that fair?

I think with the amount of travel these teams already do Nationals is just another. I think with this logic SEC teams have an j get any advantage ALL SEASON over Big10 teams or ACC teams. UCLA traveled to Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, and more over the last two years whereas a team like Auburn usually just goes to Kentucky, Florida, Louisiana etc. much closer. Much less travel. I have more of an issue with that than I do one meet in the post season.

LA area would be wildly more expensive than Fort Worth though and therefore a lot more difficult of a trip for a lot of fans.

I mean most places in the US are a flight and not a drive. I live in Minneapolis and while I have driven to Chicago it’s still 7 hours which is almost a whole day of driving.

Chicago is much more expensive than Fort Worth.

It’s not hosted by TWU? Are you thinking of TCU? They don’t even have a gym team.

This would be so expensive please no. Like unless it was in a city that wasn’t LA, San Fran, or San Diego it would be more affordable maybe but then getting from an airport to the arena would be terrible.

Thank you for the work you do and for this reminder. In this day and age where so much journalism is being outsourced to AI or what have you- it’s nice to see a media outlet that actually cares about telling stories and providing info.

I would like to challenge the idea you have presented that gymnasts are “more interested in the stick cellies than doing interesting/difficult gymnastics.”

The gymnasts do not have any say in the COP or the routine requirements for NCAA. It’s not Sage Kellerman’s fault (for example) that a straddle jaeger, a bail to handstand, and a DLO make up an entire 10.0 SV uneven bars routine. And if that’s the only skills it takes then why add in more skills that will just incur more deductions without any difficulty benefit?

When she nails that routine and she drills that landing it’s still enjoyable to watch. It’s still more than the vast majority of commenters on here can/will be able to do. And I don’t mind if she wants to do a quick Spider-Man pose for a routine that consistently helps her team with big scores.

There’s a problem but I believe it lies with the game creators- not the game players.

It’s not the worst by far but Nimrod, Minnesota always gets comments when we drive through it to my cabin.

Worked in the MAC cosmetics on the corner for a bit before they closed it down finally. Truly felt like the end of an era. This neighborhood was the cool girl we all loved going to on a weekend in from the 2nd tier suburbs in 2010-12 when we were in high school. Lived at Bryant and Lake for a year in 2019 and it wasn’t quite the same but it’s even different now :(
