Not only the best.
Not only the hottest.
Also the nicest.
Alexei Nemov gave the high bar routine to kick ass last night. But the new rules reward hand changes, and one arm swings and dullness. Alexei had six release moves, including 4 in a row. FYI - Paul Hamm had the same 4 in a row at the world championships last year and the judges told him the 4th didn't help him at all - so he took it out. Alexei put 2 more in. They didn't change his start score, they just look GREAT.
Then the judges picked up their white canes and gave Alexei the WORST SCORE OF THE NIGHT. Really. The worst in high bar of the night. The fans booed for 8 minutes. They boo'ed until Alexei finally got up to calm them.
He is dreamy.
Okay - one more Alexi pic just for Scooter.
