Davis is looked at totally different since he quit at halftime. bytch made shyt. This will be a huge stain on her accomplishments. The great that quit when it wasn’t going her way is what she will be known ass

Nah wont have any affect on her legacy, because core fanbase actually welcomes this. Just read through social media (and even mainstream media) Unanimous praise

The double standards to me are clear as day.

imagine Lebron, Messi, Ronaldo or Brady..sitting out a final because they aren’t mentally up for it

We’re gonna applaud our gymnastics team for taking a deliberate L because they’re brave & bold, yet the media is getting ready to pull out the “national embarrassment” headlines and condemn USA men’s basketball if they lose another game.

The double standards to me are clear as day. Is it just because we don’t expect women athletes to handle pressure?

I don’t get it.

Your drunk ass ain't seeing double. its definitely a double standard.but they're not gonna come at the big black men the way they'll come at the tiny little women. You'll have your racist come at her cause she's black but other than that she'll get full support. The gymnastics team has always been the bastion of cute, innocent yet dominant america. While basketball will never be seen that way anymore unless Larry Bird somehow has 12 sons he's got locked in a hyperbolic time chamber shooting Js.

That’s any sport nikka. Win lose or draw ain’t going to change ur life. So do u root on football basketball or baseball? Killed ur own argument

I'm on record as saying picking an individual team was one of the dumbest decisions of my life. But again this is more the Olympic part, there is no attachment to these people prior to these 2 weeks, but the overwhelming response is the same as the professionals we see year after year.

But to agree with your point, cheering for any team is dumb. Would not recommend 0/10

but some users here would rather fukk Ledecky than some cute weightlifter

I don’t really have a problem with what Simone did but I also think she’s being given more grace than most would get. I can not imagine Patrick Mahomes leaving during the middle of Super Bowl or LeBron leaving during the middle of the Finals and them not getting completely shytted on

Imagine Bron leaving a Finals game because he wasn't happy about a ref blowing a call

the news just said they DID use the alternate. The alternate was Jordan Chiles.

She’s not an alternate. The four members of the team were biles, Chiles, lee and maccallum. The way they compete is 3 people do each apparatus, you make it so the people who are best on a given apparatus are the 3 to compete, Chiles wasn’t supposed to do beam, she of Course has a routine but she wasn’t one of the three they would’ve used if Simone competed and that’s crazy to throw her in that position the day of, like even 24 hours would’ve given her time to adjust to having to do all four apparatuses. Had one of the other three gotten injured, they’d be assed out as then they’d have to use an alternate

They sent 2-3 actual alternates.

Thats cause you picked the grizzles

Watching her presser, she choked in the bright lights. Gabby didn’t

She sure didn't...

Bad look when you have a goats on gear then back out for mental health


Could you imagine Kobe doing some shyt like that ,never in a million years

She was raped by a pedo. Does everyone forget that happened?

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I really don’t understand it. Just use the magic buzz words “mental health” and all is forgiven and you’re a hero now. Ben Simmons was scared to shoot because of pressure just a month ago and everyone clowned him. People have cracked under pressure in sports since the beginning of time. But now it’s ok and we should praise them because they’re dealing with mental pressure.

Was Ben Simmons touched by nassar?

 

[Cladyclad]

Reporter: cladyclad u went 0-30 from the field with 15 turnovers

me: i got mental illness
What u expect

woman reporter: u are so strong to even attempt that many shots knowing u have mental illness

me: it’s so hard (leaves press conference)

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Just imagine Bean or Bron or Jordan checking out of game 4 of the finals talking about they’re not mentally in it and to let the guys take care of business without them. They’d be vilified as they should be.

Wilt Chamberlain did do that. But you wouldn't know it because people forgot about it..
