Almost half this board are the walking version of a bleeding gash.

Somehow we have bred things like bravery, honor, grit, determination and testosterone out of our males.


I really wished posters had to post a resume and a picture of themselves in order to post here.


It would explain so much.
Weed out the trolls too.

Where's the fricking line then? I wouldn't wimp out of a junior college talent show if I'd committed to it. But I'm supposed to be OK with someone flying over to Tokyo on donated money, waving a flag, and then just wimping out on live TV?

WTF happened to global warming? Does moving her black arse to the other side of the globe not release hydrocarbons? Would she feel better if we burned up a few more tons of dinosaur? Is it like driving a baby around to put it to sleep?

Im disappointed in her, but it's not because she's black or has anything to do with your incoherent rambling about global warming.

You should try not being a racist idiot when making your point.

I’m pretty sure her arse is black. I’d prefer to verify in person however.

IMO, when you can’t be proud and grateful for what this country has given you, you don’t deserve to be rewarded for it, especially when America is paying the bill for you to represent them on a world stage. I say find your own way back home.

She's earned my derision. The word choice would be different if she were different. It wouldn't be any nicer.

This a joke right?

I agree that its weak to do what she did but to blame this on a President thats been in office less than a year is a joke.

People tossing out medal counts need to realize that not all of these events are created equally. History, tradition, etc. means that certain things just mean more on the national and international stage.

I'm happy that some bawette managed to shoot a few more skeet with a shotgun than was was expected. But that's not the same thing as Usain Bolt dominating the men's 100 even if the medals look the same and count the same in the standings.

Certain events matter more for our national pride and Olympic tradition - and women's team gymnastics is one of them. Biles was billed as the biggest star of these Olympics and this was her event and moment to shine - and she botched it in about as bad a way as possible. And coming on the heels of some major swimming disappointments, the softball loss and Men's basketball tripping over themselves, this is not a good start for Team USA, regardless of the overall medal count.

Really disappointing.

Win or lose, we are not a nation of quitters.

The optics of this is bad for the US.

Yes people are coddled too much and too self absorbed but whoever is president ain’t gonna change that.

It’s more the fault of rampant look-at-me narcissism brought on by a culture dominated by social media and the companies that make billions off it.

USAG has won gold 3 times in the history of the Olympics and Silver or Bronze 6 times. Olympic tradition huh?
