Swimmers can race into their 30s so she could easily have 3 more Olympics in her. She can go to school for free, have a good time in her teens, and still get that endorsement money later in life.

Except you may not win again.

Remember Amanda beard? Remember Natalie coughlin?

In 4 years another 16-20 year old phenom will appear

Boo ya. Co/sign what he said to the fullest, there is no guaranteed tomorrow man, you gotta take that money and run. A nikka at my high school was a top cross country/long distnce runner in the state had all types of scholarships got into an accident that fukked him up and lost it all. I really dont see what would even be in it for her to face college competition, if she's beating the biggest/best competition on the biggest stage wtf is the NCAA going to do for her.

She said she likes being part of a team which is why she still competes in high school too when she clearly doesnt have to. If someone wants to experience college life i cant fault them. She can still get that endorsement money later but she cant be on a college team later and have those experiences.

she will never get that money back if she goes to college to swim. Its gone.

Phelps went to University of Michigan but he caked as well, and didnt swim.

Bullshyt source that can't even read the article they are citing:

"Sports-marketing experts said the Corn Flakes deal for the Summer Olympics sweetheart is just the beginning, adding that she stands to potentially earn more than $100 million in endorsement deals."

SMH at anyone thinking a picture on a cereal box is worth 100 million

thank you for clearing that up..but that Cereal Box will become a collectors item..so she defintily is getting some good up front bread for it....

and i love it , that she getting like that...

now all them racist mofos cracking all types of pathetic jokes CAN KISS HER RICH BLACK ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another views-seeking, misleading thread title :rudy:


Nah, the OP just took the article at face value. That bullshyt examiner.com website flat out told a lie in their first sentence:

"Gabby Douglas is on a box of cereal from Kellogg's Corn Flakes after inking more than a $90 million deal"


This is why you can't take anything on the internet serious. Website that appear to be legit can just make stuff up out of thin air and make people believe it. People don't even take the time to THINK for a half second as to how absurd it is.

Like i said, she still races on her high school team so clearly it means something to her. Would i take the money? Yes. But i cant fault someone who clearly wants to experience something else in her life. Andruw Luck could have been the #1 pick a year ago but he went back to school, same thing with Matt Leinart. Some people just arent about taking the money and running.

Damn, to accomplish a life long goal at 16, and then be set for life? Where exactly does she go from here.

I said in the hair thread that she's setting herself up for the rest of her life ...while otherds are complaining about her hair.

Who's really winning?
