I know you’d like her to shut up and keep her “on the plantation” but she’s a free American, last I checked.

In what other ways would you like to control POC? I’m legitimately curious.

It’s the vestiges of old-school leftist democrat dogma.

They want her to work and perform for their enjoyment, and condemn her if she behaves like a free American.

That’s literally on the first page of the liberal playbook.

Nothing, on her end. A lot, with the media that deifies her.

Imagine had Tom Brady done this on the eve of the Super Bowl this year...

Dude she got the yips and quit, immediately.

Them be the facts.

People withdraw due to injury. She’s supposed to be the goat. Goats don’t get the yips and they don't quit.

Then she could have done that before Olympic trials thereby allowing the next qualified athlete, who also had worked years and years to be good enough to make the team, a chance to compete and fulfill their own dreams.

What she did by not doing that was incredibly selfish...long before what you may or may not think about her quitting mid competition.

As for that, let's be honest...people are flaking for her because she's a woman. That's it. Had this been another athlete who were calling THEMSELVES the GOAT and they quit mid competition and that athlete had a penis, the public would rightfully be calling them out.

Either women are strong and brave and powerful and should be treated equally, or they shouldn't. Pick one.

Ha! I got called a racist and a misogynist today because I dared to dispute she shouldn't have quit in the face of adversity. No mention of race or gender in any of my comments.

You sit there judging her for quitting on her country.


I'm not, though. If she has the yips, she can't help it. But that's just a bad thing that happened to her. It doesn't make her brave to bow out because of it. It makes her unfortunate.

The yips sure is an anodyne way to describe what she cited.

Who was the other athlete to withdraw in the middle of a team competition at the pinnacle of the sport due to stress, and not an injury?

Roberto Duran

not team, though

You have been nails on this topic.

Bottom line is that she quit on her teammates. She shouldn't be allowed to participate in the individual medals events.

Just go home and live with the legacy....quitter.
