Or she added to that label. How many athletes would have done the opposite and let their pride make the decision. She put the Team first.puts a bit of tarnish in the GOAT label so many bestowed upon her. Japan's most famous athlete Naomi Osaka, crashed and burned as well.
I give her the benefit of the doubt the more I have learned of the facts. Her teammates are the only ones she owes explanations to. Not me, not you and certainly not NBCOr she added to that label. How many athletes would have done the opposite and let their pride make the decision. She put the Team first.
A young lady who has accomplished so much, the most gymnastic medals in history. It would be hard to imagine some of the issues she is personally dealing with, are not related to that Larry Nassar bastard.
Americans owe her a standing ovation for her career her personal strength and her guts. GOAT? No question about it.
In spite of the fact you have yahoos like Charlie Kirk crawling out of the woodwork making an ass of himself, I am sure the vast majority of Americans will celebrate Simone.
Hopefully they will also make Charlie, and his ilk, feel some embarrassment and shame, if that is possible.
I believe they were joking you, since you were name dropping bow and arrow dudes and clay pigeon shooters.since 1984 or so, China has invested a huge amount of resources in "soft sports" such as diving, in order to bolster their medal count.
somebody wanted to troll because they were upset I know some of the Olympic athletes. Which makes sense given I am a national level coach and a national level judge of an Olympic sport and I frequently judge tournaments involving our Olympic team in that sport
I guess I’ll be watching none of the Olympics.
The USA and China lead in metals. Go figure. Big deal. It’s like Alabama and Clemson in college football....who cares?
I am sure the vast majority of Americans will celebrate Simone.
Biden will give her a WOKE medal when she gets back to the States.her team mates did not seem angry with her but who knows. In a sport like that, if you sell out your teammates, I suspect there would be hell to pay, so I am going to give her the benefit of any doubt
one poster tends to try to troll many of my posts. I know exactly what he is doing. I suspect he is upset that I actually know a lot about these issues having been an elite shooter years ago, and now a national judge and coach in another Olympic sport.I believe they were joking you, since you were name dropping bow and arrow dudes and clay pigeon shooters.
she pulled out of the all-around which is the real glamor event in gymnastics and where the big bucks endorsements come from. Other than perhaps the men's 100 meter and Decathalon champion, few medals are more valuable for endorsements than being the ladies all-around gymnastics champion.Biden will give her a WOKE medal when she gets back to the States.
If she enters and wins the individual, she will look even worse for quitting on her team..
Nothing but respect and admiration for Simon Biles here.
It's disgraceful the way some citizens of her own Country are treating her.
Did, did celebrate Simone.
It is not OK to have a bad day and quit.
Or he's laughing at the fact that you think considering yourself an "elite shooter" and a "national judge" is something to brag about. But keep dropping names of no one has ever heard of, we're all impressed.one poster tends to try to troll many of my posts. I know exactly what he is doing.

Americans are still celebrating her.
Se did not quit after one bad day.
isn't this what you do with mine? Have I not had to ask you to stop?one poster tends to try to troll many of my posts.
I love watching such self esteem issues. I don't care if you haven't heard of them. when the issue is sports, it is relevant. You seem to think talking about your military service all the time matters.Or he's laughing at the fact that you think considering yourself an "elite shooter" and a "national judge" is something to brag about.

Two bad days?
what are you talking about-I haven't attacked anything you have said on this thread. You seem to not understand attacking bad arguments with trollingisn't this what you do with mine? Have I not had to ask you to stop?
Hypocrisy: the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform; pretense.
Peace
If she enters and wins the individual, she will look even worse for quitting on her team..
and that is the crown jewel of all the events she was originally intending to compete inShe is going to skip the all-around individual too.
Not this thread but you are the only poster here who has followed me around to dispute the facts I post for your edification.what are you talking about-I haven't attacked anything you have said on this thread. You seem to not understand attacking bad arguments with trolling
I wasn't talking about my military service, but it speaks volumes you seem to need to mention it. Your self esteem issues seem to revolve around knowing Olympic athletes in sports nobody cares about. Why is that?I love watching such self esteem issues. I don't care if you haven't heard of them. when the issue is sports, it is relevant.

I care about them. That's the neat thing about the olympics. people get to see athletes who aren't constantly splashed across US TV sets.I wasn't talking about my military service, but it speaks volumes you seem to need to mention it. Your self esteem issues seem to revolve around knowing Olympic athletes in sports nobody cares about. Why is that?
Yes, but wouldn't you agree that the most celebrated athletes of the summer games is the all around ladies champion. Now if someone were to win every single individual event (has that ever been done) that would be interestingI always hear "all-around final" as if Simone Biles has not ruled out wining gold for only her beam, vault, bars, and floor routines separately.
