I would love, love LOVE to see an interview with members of the 1988 DDR Women's team (Dagmar Kersten, Doerte Thimmler, etc.) to see how they feel about their gift of a bronze medal at those Olympics and to ask if they felt they deserved it over the US team.

I don't think it would be fair to them-they didn't ask for that to happen the way it did. How would you feel if that happened to you?

I think it would be an interesting question if asked in the right way. I doubt any respectable journalist would actually tell them they were given a gift and then ask how they felt about it.

I think just a simple asking of how they felt about the controversy surrounding the final team standings would do to start a conversation. IG2 asked Rhonda Faehn about the pulling of the springboard. I know those questions are tough to approach or deal with, but sometimes it turns out well. I think Rhonda said she was actually glad they asked about it.

Sorry, it's over a year later, and I still want to see an interview with the East German team. Go ahead and walk on eggshells around the question, but Ellen Berger won that bronze for them...plain and simple!
