You just want to watch cj on the uneven bars
I watched that dude do his floor routine and he looked like he was fucking his shit up. He looked like he was in pain, he landed flips on one foot and when he did land on both feet he stumbled towards that bad leg. I think he sacrificed his health for that gold medal and if that's his thing, I'm glad the sacrifice at least paid off.
I didn't!
If she's not right mentally, she could land wrong, suffer a life or career threatening injury. C'mon Man! She's accomplished everything she could ever ask for in Olympic Competition already. If she's not right, why do it. She's in a no win. You're not the only one saying c'mon. If she competed while being off in her mind, and sucked, we'd hammer her for that too. If she was your daughter, and she said, dad, i'm not right. Would you say, suck it up?
i can see that but i'm definitely not saying suck it up. I'm saying that she's seemingly put too much pressure on winning and being perfect. And that the work/training she has done clearly should be enough to get her Gold without the pressure. Also, as I edited into my original post, I just don't think she currently has the support system to get her through this without family/fans. And Gymnastics coaching has always seemed very suspect.
Could be. Whatever it is, take time, get over it, if she can, and go get it. But if she can't, move on to another year. She's an amazing athlete. If she never performs again, she's done amazing. Hopefully that's worst case. Social media has made being a public figure, tougher than ever. Haters and bullies are more empowered than ever before, with a lack of consequences for their behavior. Truly sad sign of the times.
Fire Stotts!
Imagine how many gymnasts who didn’t make the team are feeling right now. Wishing they were in her spot. Tough time to pull out.
Drugs and the promise the women in his family would be raped and his whole family would be killed if he didn't win the gold.
