The final straw, however, was when one of the gymnasts lost two baby teeth and asked if the tooth fairy could still find her in the Olympic Village.

Controversy, as usual, at the Olympics
				</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s6i39144">The Chinese Women's Gymnastics Team took the Olympic Gold Medal in the team competition, but has been disqualified due to the falsification of the ages of some of the team members.  News sources had reported several days ago that at least three members of the team had falsified paperwork to appear to be older.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s6i39144">Officials begin to be suspicious when the girls pulled out their teddy bears during a competitive break and begin holding a tea party.  They were also curious when one girl had to ask for instructions on hooking her bra and another ask for help wiping herself after using the bathroom (her phrase, loosely translated, was "making poopies").  Another strange moment came when one team reported that, in the locker room, the Chinese gymnasts all had cartoon characters on their panties.  Further suspicions were aroused when the athletes asked the American team if "the Jonas Brothers" had cooties.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A8EA5825-AA64-4C59-9C91-D24429E0D80B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
