Do you think USA sometimes gets bad scores from judges cuz of politics?

Question

In like diving we r perfectly syncronized and everything and we get a low score but the japanese or chinese come up, totally off and get the gold medal. it doesnt make sense.

(nothing against japan or china)

Answer 1

somewhat yes.

Answer 2

On the contrary, I think the USA often gets good scores from the judges when they're undeserved. It's all competition, though. Competitors don't mind these things, they just want to get out there and do their stuff. Think of how wonderful it is to even get to that level.

Answer 3

If it is politics Japan should get the worse score. Japanese once invaded China and Korea, remember WWII? All USA do is buy Chinese made goods and make Chinese people money.

Synchronized diving is scored on difficulty, technique...etc. If there really is politics behind scoring US would have spotted it.  

Answer 4

it goes both ways..

Answer 5

you bet ye.

Answer 6

Uh, yes. There's a reason why China has so many medals.
