I don’t know if these insults had anything to do with her poor performance ...

If their coaches are letting the athletes see Twitter commentary, the coaches are fools.

What's the big deal about an Olympic gymnast's being black, anyway? I remember when Dominique Dawes was competing - another bright, pretty girl and great athlete.

She had not seen it. A reporter told her about it, so she googled herself afterward and was just flabbergasted at what she found. I think it is beyond disgusting. This little girl worked so hard and was the best of the best, and then she was told that was not enough.
