2020, uh, 21, uh, who knows Tokyo Olympics thread

Biles might have hurt herself warming up during a vault. Individuals are up in the air.

If I gotta start my day at 6 a.m., at least I can catch a bit of Japan-USA softball. But will Beth Mowlins ever shut up? Or stop being an advocate for the sport and do the play-by-play?

 

Per CNN on teh Twitterez, her foot is "heavily strapped."

Does this mean she's out for the rest of the games?

 

ESPN just did 10 seconds on it. Then will spend 20 minutes on Madden ratings of defensive ends.

SPORTS RIGHTS!

 

Whoa there.

 

Boy, you better be right to report that.

 

And guess what the second season of Ted Lasso seems to be about.

 

Re: Biles, my wife also mentioned that the Gymternet is abuzz with the fact that it's a mental health issue, combined with an injury she's been working around for about two years. This will shock you, but apparently a USA Gymnastics official said something stupid on social media last night.

Also - Seems like "The Today Show" is on tape delay today, because we're 5 minutes in, and they're still talking about Biles and haven't mentioned that she's out. My local news had that she was out as of 25 minutes ago.

 

Carrying the burden of millions of people’s expectations, an entire TV network/corporate sponsors’/major corporation’s bottom line is something I’d never wish on any person, an enemy included. Really hope she’s okay.

 

Dan's not the only one reporting that. But I'll take his word over anyone else.
