Hank apparently doesn't know what gaslighting is. And he's the one digging a hole. How about you denounce what Kirk said hank? Because it was uncalled for. im2, I have no idea who this Kirk person is but the video is indeed politically driven. Try watching the video next time before you start flapping your lips.

If Biles needs to step away, then she should step away. Everyone has to do what is best for themselves personally. So, if she doesnt' feel that she can compete then that is her choice to do so or not and everyone should leave her alone to sort things out of herself.
However, she may have to live with the pain of regret as well. The not knowing what might have been is often hard to take as well. Sometimes you just play your game and if you don't perform well, at least you tried and you know that you gave it your best shot. Again, I am not saying she should or shouldn't , just making conversation that this is going to be difficult either way. And, she is such a poised and trained professional, it is also highly likely that once she started and got in the "zone" she would be as phenomenal as always. She's trained for this her whole life and her instincts would most likely take over.
And, she also has to accept that if others are win and she doesn't , there will be a new gymnastics darling that will be in the news and be celebrated. You can step away from something, but you are also stepping away from the glory of that moment as well. And, if she doesn't perform that in no way dimishes her previous accomplishments but she has worked so hard to add to her legacy that it is a shame that she has hit that wall.
Anyway, she is very talented and I wish her the best either way. I hope she does the upcoming individual events, but if she feels that she cannot , then she shouldn't.

I don't think she should be attacked or belittled for her decision. Sometimes you have to step down from something. A job, an office, a sport , an activity etc. We all have our own personal issues to deal with. So calling her names or attacking her is wrong and uncalled for. Gymnastics has a shelf life and there comes a time to walk away. Maybe this is her time to walk away and move on to the rest of her life. It's her life to charter.

I watched the video and that's why I created that thread about disliking the right. So maybe you recognize that when a person is talking about an athlete not being able to perform, the subject is sports. I'm quite sure you know who Kirk is Hank. Because he works with Candy a-- Owens. #gaslighting

Charlie Kirk is a tool, but who is that absolute fool attacking him?
I'm a big fan of Biles and I hope that she recovers from whatever is causing her problems and she can either come back or retire with grace and move on to the next phase of her life.
Kudos to the kid who won the overall best gymnast award!

Here's a much better right side take on the Simone Biles situation.
He calls people like Kirk frauds. He's right.
