Erin Hamlin has led Team USA out for the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang after being named as flag carrier ahead of Shani Davis, who boycotted the ceremony. Hamlin, a four-time Olympian and winner of a luge bronze medal at the 2014 Sochi games, beamed a broad smile as she led out the athletes competing at the games in South Korea to the accompaniment of 'Gangnam Style'. The 31-year-old was chosen in a coin toss with, speedskater Shani Davis, one of just a few black athletes in TeamUSA, who says he should have been chosen to carry the Stars and Stripes.

I suppose he could boycott the award ceremony. That'll show 'em.
In the last 9 years, black culture has made itself to be so petulant and hateful, I doubt it recovers in even 200 years
My kids go to very diverse schools. You should hear what they see at school. Basically the blacks and Latinos behave like animals. And they get it all from pop culture, media, and....from the parent(s)
“Kick him off the team.”
Known asswipe disruptors shouldn’t be on the team in the first place.
What?......Ya’ll don’t play Curling all summer in a hockey rink waiting for the winter?..........................
'No problem. I can wait until 2022,' he added before using the hashtag #BlackHistoryMonth2018.'
Go ahead and wait ... after your tantrum this year, I'd be sorely disappointed if you received any votes to carry the flag then. What a spoil-sport!
Remove nose to spite face....:)
Is this the Olympics or Golden Globes ?
Starting to look like the Golden Gloves
intersectionality in action
I hope he’s boo’ed when his race is up, I hope his team mates turn their backs on him when he races. God forbid he wins and kneels during the national anthem.
I watched the opening ceremonies live this AM because I wondered if the girl who won the coin toss was going to be coerced/shamed/forced to let him carry it.
Added bonus: no commentary on the live stream whatsoever. I got to just watch. No hand wringing over race, muslims, gays, inclusiveness, blah blah blah.
To those who want to tune in tonight but really only want to see the US - they come in the venue very early on (first 15 or so nations).
Yeah I think so too.
So he’s a Misogynist, eh (see how easy that is!)?
Shani Davis wins the Gold Medal for the biggest douche of the 2018 Winter Games!!
I can’t believe that for the first time in my life I may have to actually ROOT AGAINST my country in the Olympics....any nation out there that hasn’t gone complete SJW-retard?
Sounds very similar to what we heard from another liberal, after she lost the 2016 presidential election. "It was my turn. I was owed."
A couple of pieces of advice for Davis: Leave the Black Lives Matter crap back at home.
Learn that people want to hear from a winner at the Olympics, not a whiney, crybaby loser who thinks it's all about him and not his country.
I never heard of the Davis Winter Olympic Team. Just the US Olympic TEAM (as in not certain individuals, but as in a TEAM).
Davis started this Olympics by falling flat on his face.
African American speed skater Shani Davis BOYCOTTS the Winter Olympic opening
Another one that considers himself SPECIAL. When he is nothing more then another a$$.
Probably prevented by officials from wrapping himself in the BLM flag.
Obama set us back to the worst of the 60’s.
The cute woman who won the coin toss is on the left. The bitter, racist, spoiled brat who never learned sportsmanship is on the right.
Probably just as well he boycotted. Not sure how you can take a knee while marching, but I’m sure he would have found a way.
I’ll be interested to see if he blames the “white ice” when he doesn’t win a medal in his event.
