Of course it's not personal.  Like I said, my opinion of the dive went down on the replay, so maybe it'd go down even more if I watched it again.  Every point counts.

Still, from the start, this was both Canadians to loose. Still, I think judges want to see a closer competition.

Those were 6.0's for Schnell 

[mrv86 3,176]

That was a 9.0 for Agundez

 

Beautiful dive 

 

And yet, the judges underscore her.

I feel like they're trying to play country-appropriate music for each diver, like they just played Party in the USA for the American.  I want some Celine Dion for our Canadians!  I demand it!

I agree, just didn't want to come off as too biased.

She over rotated, imo.  But still low.

Benfeito will be champion, unless she flops... but the battle for the rest of the podium will be hot

 It was my bad, I refered to Agundez... and on replay, yes it was a 8.5 dive.

[mrv86 3,176]

Benfeito a little overscored in her last dive, but still the medal was hers.

 

But McKAY was almost perfect in that last one, so she really deserved that silver.

 

So congratulations Canada!
