Have you performed at that level in gymnastics? She has done this for years.
Who are you or me to criticise her decision?
The point is that she isn’t “The Greatest Of All Time” - GOAT - that she promoted herself to be. When a great athlete faces a challenge, he rises to it. Or at least TRIES.
Imagine Muhammed Ali ducking a fight. Imagine Joe Montana saying, “I’m not sure I’m my best. Send in the second string!”
She’s been wearing a GOAT on her clothes heading into the Olympics. Then chokes. OK, that happens. But choking isn’t praise-worthy. And the true greats of a sport? The GOATs? They don’t choke, which is part of what makes them the greatest.
We agree on something!
