Lochte too

Her parents are also getting divorced.

I think it shows the dedication her mom put into her daughter. I don't think people understand how expensive it is when you get to the elite level. Much different than basketball or baseball.
If the mother chose not to move her to Iowa, this all would not have happened. She would be an unknown. Her Asian coach is like MLB level coaching and her Virginia Beach coach is like double A level baseball coaching.

smh at cacs

No class.

 

[Bruh Man 5th Flo]

this little girl just got 90 mil (don't know the years) from kellogg......her moms is straight lol

 

[NYC Rebel]

Her parents are also getting divorced.

Yet they throw this "single mom" thing out there rather than called her a "divorced mother of three."

Working as a journalist, its easy to see the mentality of the writers putting together these articles.

Why is this even news

I bet they only put this out there so all the cacs that was mad about her winning gold can now celebrate cause her mom is broke

 

[unit321]

She's got Kellogg's and Proctor and Gamble endorsement deals. I had to look it up. Who knows how much that is combined, but it should be more than enough to get out of bankruptcy and into the black (no pun intended).

Gabby Douglas' gold worth millions in endorsement deals - Bottom Line

American media trying to showcase her parents having issues to make it more of a feel good story

 

[Leonard Washington]

It goes to show the sacrifices of parents for their children, but by that same token, I don't know if this isn't just stupid though. My twins daughters are 12 and 5'6 and if they hit me with some 'dad, I want to go get some post moves from Hakeem in Houston, I'd hit them with the you better practice your Dream Shake in the backyard.

the alternative is you could always get out there with them and teach them the Nightmare Shimmy

 

[mastermind]

so how many threads we gonna make about her

I'm glad she won & all -but a 16yo girl ain't suppose to run a hiphop sport forum

you equate being a jock to supporting the NFL. You are pathetic

I wish it wasn't, but I know why it's news. Mother of the new poster child for USA gymnastics is broke.

nah, this isnt a news story. Just like Lotche's parents home going through foreclosure. This is not any of our business.

 

[kingofnyc]

WTF?

Niqqa...sports is organic.

It's not tied to "suppose to"s


Lord, I don't know why niqqas like you find it in yourselves to post dumb shyt.
