Biles is definitely among the athletic elite.
But noone will EVER surpass Alex "the experiment" Karelin as far as athleticism or feats of Olympic impossibleness. Won every Olympic and World Championship gold in greco roman for 12 years straight...

The term youre looking for is gut wrench Mr Rogan..
Yep, but it was less a “mental day” and more mental overload resulting in failure to perform, losing motor skills, balance and coordination. Stress and pressure to perform affects even the best.Is this the same one that bailed on her team because she needed a mental day?
And in that state, choosing not to perform isnt 'bailing' its just being smart.Yep, but it was less a “mental day” and more mental overload resulting in failure to perform, losing motor skills, balance and coordination. Stress and pressure to perform affects even the best.
I never said she was brave for it, simply that even the best have mental crashes.Yes she is so brave for dumping her responsibility because she wasn't on her game and wasn't going to win. There was a time when pushing through was celebrated and punking out not being considered "brave"......getting you commercials for said bravery. I get the diving reference that makes total sense, but taking up for this girl we'll just have to disagree. She is fully representative of the me me me people her age and the change of this country in my eyes. The days of Mary Lou Retton toughness and pushing yourself for you and your team being strong attributes are long gone. If things are not perfect I need a day off to hell with my committment to those around me. Nothing to argue about though because the dissent is from folks whose opinions I agree with on here 95% of the time, just an opinion. We just see this through completely different lenses.

Come on Maggot don't try some psycho babel. We disagree. There is no "real reason" behind my opinion any more than behind yours. We have different life experiences. Don't try to intimate I have some inherent flaw because you can't fathom my differing view of it. Don't try to make it some argument with cute cutting statements like that. Come on. We disagree completely on this one nothing more, nothing less. I expect your reasons are as good as mine either way.What I wonder is the real reason behind your harsh judgement?
yupIs this the same one that bailed on her team because she needed a mental day?
Yes, we disagree on this one thing. No biggie.Come on Maggot don't try some psycho babel. We disagree. There is no "real reason" behind my opinion any more than behind yours.

I aint criticizing her. "The credit belongs to the man in the arena..." and all that. If she knew this was a challenge that could define the rest of her life and that she wasn't 100%, I dont blame her for pulling out.I wrestled in college and open division as well. Had a budding mma stint etc…. Blah blah blah…. While the heroic media portrayal was horseshit, I can’t fault her for pulling out when her heads not right. I’d venture to say half the guys criticizing that move can’t even manage a cartwheel on flat ground. Same guys at an mma event with their 400lb fat asses hanging out of their tapout tshirts screaming at a fighter for being a pussy. Consider the source. You’re not likely to change any minds

My gripe is that Michael Phelps and Simone Biles get so much praise while someone like Jordan Burroughs gets zero.
Wrestling, boxing, and pankration got the most respect at the original ancient Olympics for a reason. Aint the purpose of sports and athletics in general to show someone's potential capability, or the likely results of a given matchup, in some sort of combat? Hence, one v one combat whether it be wrestling, boxing, MMA, or a duel to the death.. is the ultimate form of sport/athletics.
I get your point of the average tard MMA fan. But if you wrestled at a collegiate level, you know no sport even comes close to the brutal difficulty of wrestling.
I get it. Trust me. Too many people put too much weight on what’s harder, this or that. I’d agree that wrestling overall is at least among the toughest sports. Had a big chip on my shoulder about it for years. Then came the realization that, at the top levels of most sports, the athletes are incredible and would excel wherever they put their efforts. It’s humbling to see just how great they are where they’ve chosen to be. I could opine on my personal preferences, but that also doesn’t change anyone’s mind. Im guilty of being an armchair quarterback, but really try to appreciate excellence in whatever area it exists. There’re many more important areas to celebrate individuals than sports though.I aint criticizing her. "The credit belongs to the man in the arena..." and all that.

all the more reason to not get cradled…
Your kink is showing.Or to get cradled...hmmmm
Similar to chimps in trees?I just noticed her arms are longer than her legs. Does that help in women’s gymnastics?

Personally I think it is partly an illusion due to how thick/strong her legs are. They are all itty bitty girls when they do this, if they start to get boobs that is usually a deal breaker, you can tape them down only so long, all that weight up there, I guess boobs are heavy, they sure do feel heavy when I get the chance to play with wife's.
I think the long legs and arms help with rotation, you know like when an ice skater pulls their arms in they spin faster, and when they let them out they slow down.
The only sport I really watch is track and field and gymnastics. The guys on the rings are just insane. I just can't get my head around how strong you need to be to do this. The cross and plank thing are just amazing.
I get my curls and dead lifts from hoisting my own man-boobs, thank you very much., all that weight up there, I guess boobs are heavy, they sure do feel heavy when I get the chance to play with wife's.
No sir all I did was football and baseball when real young.. then got into wrestling through middle/high school. Wanted to get into grappling and MMA but ended up getting in a bunch of legal trouble in my later teen years and was sidetracked by that.Incredible.
And for @Forgetful Coyote
Ever tried swimming workouts on a highly competitive team. Talk about brutal.
