Speaking of Poor Sports...

...how about Svetlana Khorkina?

I watched those competitions. She was obviously off her game. Her performances were far worse than her scores would suggest. In fact, I thought she was given higher scores than she deserved purely on the basis of her past accomplishments. She thought she could waltz in and coast to victory - that the judges should just hand her a gold medal because it was going to be her last.

Guess what, Svetlana? The better woman won....
