The giant Phryges running around at sporting events are absurdly lovable. I like them even more, with their googly eyes, when tourists are wearing them on their heads. I also like that the French went big with a sartorial mascot that is fundamentally uncool.
This one should have been a "wow" moment in a good way. The floor exercise final ended with perhaps the most memorable medal ceremony of the whole Olympic Games, but now, it's a complete mess. The controversy surrounding the gymnastics medal ceremony at the Paris Olympics highlights flaws in the judging and arbitration processes.
