We would? Let's hear some examples for precedent. When's the last time the media tried to crucify a 16 year old girl like that?

No, I'll wait. :sitdown:

when's the last time a 16 year old girl acted like that, on that stage? now if you want to limit the discussion to athletes period. i can provide plenty examples.

Its a gold in USA gymnastics... Esp. when she was favored to win.

If she placed #1 sponsors would've been beating down her door..

She lost big time placing silver...
no one cares about the vault. Sponsors are not going to be hollering at her because she got a gold in the vault.

They will because of the Gold in the Team Comp. Thats what happened to those girls in 1996. All of them ate good because of that gold medal

I agree with KA. It's about Gabby now, no one will care about McKayla two weeks from now. Raisman better do her thing.
you say that but your post doesnt.

That's what I'm asking you. There is no evidence for the shyt you're claiming.

Btw, the vault final is airing now where I'm at. The Dominican girl had a salty look and brushed off her coach after she fell. How did the commentators sell it? "Disappointment."

Yeah but did any of those girls go along to win the individual all around in gold also? i think gabby winning gold has overshadowed the rest of the group, they won't get as much recognition since gabby has a gold medal by herself imo. This is all speculation though so who knows..:yeshrug:

there's plenty evidence of them riding athlete's when they don't like the reactions. that dominican chick is a nobody, and not alreadhy being proclaimed the gold medalist, so her reaction and cacs response is irrelevant.

compare the response to lebron not shaking hands or tiger throwing his clubs or to mayweather in general :merchant:

but you're obviously cac so carry on.

They weren't 16 though. Which is the point. If she comes back in 4 years and does the same shyt then yeah we got a problem.
