Whatever the reason for her departure, Simone Biles will be known as the gymnast that quit her team at the Olympics.

Yep, when people cite Colin Kaepernick's NFL stats it's generally about how many times he kneeled and disrespected our servicemen or how many hours he sat the bench or how many teams didn't sign him.

So it appears that the ‘act of quitting’ is praised and respected now more than actually competing and losing in this country ...how embarrassing that Quitting is now a form of “bravery” and ‘courage’.....Biles is NOT Role Model material.

People need to stop normalizing quitting. Simone Biles quit. End of story.
