I think something serious is going on. Besides Simone Biles, look at what happened to Naomi Osaka in recent months, LeBron James for the last 18 months, and Kyrie Irving for a couple of years. Is the pressure of supporting Leftist causes like Black Lives Matter starting to completely overwhelm them mentally? 🤔

I think every one of the athletes you mentioned was already emotionally stunted and immature to begin with.

One of my favorite pro athletes of all time was Don Mattingly, the star first baseman for the New York Yankees back in the 1980s. One of the things that stood out about him was that he had very few endorsement contracts even though he was one of the most popular athletes in the biggest media market in the U.S. When asked why this was the case, he said: “I always want people to know me as a baseball player.”

The sports/entertainment industry could use a few more competitors like that.
