Jade Carey was robbed by an outrageously low beam score during team qualifications which left her out of a deserved spot in the All-Around competition.
I was hoping her father and coach would lodge an appeal with the judges . . . .
Biles, to me, is totally overrated as far as artistry is concerned and her automatic wins seem vastly unfair to superior gymnasts like Carey and even her training partner Jordan Chiles ( who was also ripped off from a shot in the ALL-Around.)
My frau enjoys watching the Olympics. I do watch the rugby matches. I happen to be in the room when the US woman and US man won gold in skeet shooting. Woot! I have to remind myself not every Americam Olympian is a woke America hating racist. I feel sorry for the ones stuck on woke teams like women soccer team.
Biles drives a 3 million dollar Bugatti Veyron.
Seems America has been very very good to this little lady.
She should show a little more appreciation.
Please control yourself. There are plenty of athletes and teams that are not woke.
Good grief...
When you de program US exceptionalism and give ‘rewards’ for all and sundry JUST for participating.... then you have habituated people to mediocrity!!
Duhhhhh...!
Its amazing how some people think they are a special lot when they don’t get their way and to lazy to earn what they want.
Whiners slackers egotists all on the same pity train going no where.
When blacks succeeded in life they called the uncle Tom’s until Obama was elected twice no their gig it’s all about whitey fault failure ensue every time when whining.
I am not watching the Olympics to much woke dislike whining.
Watch the video - he has copies of tweets and unless he made them up, Simone is definitely woke.
Many of the males involved in gymnastics are gay so it makes sense there is a ‘children are sexual beings theme’. 99% of gay men are active or latent pedophiles.
Privelage.
“I’ve actually stopped watching news and most channels as well.”
Me, too.
The Team BLM is losing, how sad /s
Yes, it seems she is. Another disappointment. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, to preserve my dwindling hope for America's future. It seems impossible.
Thanks for info.
Bile is another woke coward that folded under pressure.

In a new interview with Vogue, Biles opened up on the current state of affairs across America and the racial justice protests.
“We need change,” she said. “We need justice for the Black community. With the peaceful protests it’s the start of change, but it’s sad that it took all of this for people to listen. Racism and injustice have existed for years with the Black community. How many times has this happened before we had cell phones?”
“With everyone speaking up and the traction that Ahmaud and George are getting,” Biles said on what would have been Taylor's 27th birthday, “Breonna will be remembered. She’s going to find justice. They’re already reopening her case. I’m happy for that. But I just don’t understand. She was sleeping. How do you feel threatened when you’re a police officer and they’re sleeping? Come on now.”
“We tried peaceful protesting. Then Colin Kaepernick—he lost his job. He lost his career. They took his whole entire career away from that poor man. And look at us now,” she continued, discussing how some were debating the techniques used by protestors. “It’s working. You just have to be the first and people will follow.
This isn't the first time Biles has publicly supported Kaepernick, the former NFL quarterback who has been without a job since he was criticized for kneeling during the national anthem in protest of police violence against Black people. When then newly installed USA Gymnastics president, Mary Bono, criticized Nike for including Kaepernick in a campaign in a now deleted tweet—Biles was quick to call her out. (Bono eventually resigned.)
Why? She's praised BLM and Colin Kaepernick. She's as woke as woke can be.
“...look like little girls...” well, Biles is 4’8” tall
I stand corrected. I guess she just doesn’t get all that vocal about it like others do.
She has an opinion. A dumb opinion, but an opinion. Has she knelt? Disrespected the flag? Proclaimed she is ashamed of her country?
