What was Naomi Osaka's deal (I clearly missed something there).
In regards to this - honestly, if i were USA Gymnastics I'd just pull Biles out from the entire competition. From what I heard (I didn't seee her vault but it seemed like she lost sense of where she was in the air). Her comments after that don't sound so good to me. Like did she have a panic attack? It didn't look like it because she was happily cheering everyone one, and getting mats, and chalk going on like everything was fine. Again if you have the twisties its better safe than sorry because you don't want to hurt yourself, but I just know for me personally, after it was all said and done, I would be in tears like this sucks. as people said - Sveta Khorkina, (basically anyone on that 1996/2000 team) would have rather taken a bullet to the brain than to pull out of a competition like that.
until i see it in person for myself - i can't really comment more than that, but she should have spoken up after warmups (and i heard she practiced it wonky too). I can't speak for her team mates, but quite honestly, I would be quite a tick salty if she pulled out but was oh "I'm fine!" for the All around.
I think it's always gonna be divisive. I've always been of the mindset that even though you're extremely talented - you should let the whole GOAT crap be determined AFTER your career not during it. a ot of people are blaming this on media, and USA gymnastics and allt his pressure on yourself, but she is the one wo stitched a goat on on her leos. She thinks she's all that, and to me at the end of the day she bailed on her team. I don't think she's very GOATy.
