Thanks for the link.

She's still marketable, obviously, and in some respects maybe even more so. But I think she choked away some BIG paychecks.
Unless they do something stupid, they are all set for life.

I mean Laurie Hernandez and her dad are still in the Trulicity commercials and she’s not even competing anymore.
It’d be interesting if they’d bring Simone back for future Olympics for gymnastics commentary. I bet they still would.

Moving home plate? Heightening the net?
Anyone watch a weird amount of the same thing? I think I saw every one of the America women’s 3x3 basketball games.

Softball going downhill in the US…despite the insane travel ball numbers
Monica Abbott and Cat Osterman were the only holdovers from 2008.
The NCAA's juiced ball and the lack of a large viable pro league aren't doing the U.S. any favors.

When does she get to stop getting frisbees off of roofs?

I watched a USA vs Japan women's rugby sevens match last night. The game was like 20 minutes and it was over.

7s is the best. 7v7 and two 7' halves lol. So much more entertaining than regular rugby because of the space allowing the athleticis, to shine.
Yeah I was initially surprised how short the rugby matches were but they also all looked exhausted by the end of it.

It’s a replay, they already won. Sorry, I know that hurts. You can root against your country again on Monday.

Seems more like he was rooting against those who are rooting against our country.
Hope this helps.

I'm sure everyone in Tokyo not from the US is still focused on the US political positions of the US athletes. I think that's all the universe thinks about.

Fans often turn on players who shit all over their team. Usually said players do not continue to play for team.

Djokovic quite the sore loser. Lost bronze medal match and threw fits, broke racquets and then withdrew from double competition keeping his partner from medaling.
