Congratulations on having medals for being able to do something that will do neither you, nor anyone else, any good in the real world. Sports are for fun and bragging rights. You managed to mess that up. And now you want to talk down to us because you used to NOT quit?

Athletes bragging about their awards to deflect from their behavior is always fascinating. They really think anyone cares.

LeBron really is the role model for these athletes.

Well she got the silver in the team event that she quit. So really she earned 6. Which drops her out of the top 15.

She’s a quitter no matter how many she has.

Not quite true.

Ecaterina Szabo (Romania- Silver Medal) was the number one ranked gymnast in the world.

Pretty much what Ogeron says when people critizes him, "I can't hear over my National Title ring."

Not that it matters in the grade scheme of things but it is pretty wild how far this chick has fallen in our household.

My wife is obsessed with women’s gymnastics and looks forward to it every time it comes around. Adored Simone ever since she had her breakout year.

She can’t stand this count now.

Granted, but I think you get my point - the Russian team wasn't even there. Biles has always competed against the cream of the world (and not just at the Olympics) and has pistol whipped them on nearly every occasion. It's beyond debate that she is a worthy and deserving champion. Only a complete dullard would watch what happened and jump to "duhhh, she's a quittturrr. I hate hurrr."

It's okay. The word quitter is in everyone else's vocabulary.

I legit have never heard if this hoe until she made the news about quitting. Then I still didn’t give a damn about her.

Do you have a daughter or any female in your life that you care about? This "hoe" was born into lousy circumstances and worked her arse of to the top. Why are you so comfortable disparaging her in such a way? She has more heart than you will ever even dream about having.

It's sad that you know about this, posted about this, and are proud to be part of this.


Go outside, some of you right wingers are sick in the fricking head, get lives.

I pointed this out with the bech tweet, stop posting this shite on social media if you don’t want attention.

I didn’t even know who she was till she stepped aside. She got more pub quitting than winning.

No, she didn't. She was an A level celebrity with the most pub headed into the games.

Also, she didn't "quit". She removed herself from several events due to a medical issue. She came back to compete and actually still won another medal.

At least I’ve never quit anything I’ve started. Can she say the same? Ok then. That makes me better than her.

Obviously she can hear, or she wouldn't be making this statement.

Self awareness is lacking in this one.
