[Adelle Dazeem]

This is a great and insightful interview with Svetlana Khorkina. She has not ben Simone's biggest fan in the past, but she is very supportive of her here.

Say, I wonder what happened to the Tokyo Olympic mascots? At Pyeongchang, they had the Soohorang white tiger mascot all over the place. But I don't think I've seen the Tokyo mascots anywhere even once.

All of the woke athletes have me cheering against them... Keep the politics out of athletics.... An opinion is an opinion regardless of their stage. It's no more important than anyone else's.... Share your opinions in your press conferences or in one on one interviews.... Not on, before or after your competition or awards ceremony.

When are you allowed to throw them away?

 

[RedAngie]

Insufficient luggage space???!!! Please, they got all their uniforms and equipment there somehow.

What did they do? Load up on kimonos and other souvenirs?

Why would you throw your Olympic uniform away?

They more than likely received their team gear when they arrived in Tokyo but that excuse is a load of BS.

 

[Buzz Rules]

When are you allowed to throw them away?

Most are returned I think unless the federation allows them to keep it.

 

[RedAngie]

When are you allowed to throw them away?

When they get home to Mexico. Don’t toss your unwanted items in the host’s trash.

 

[kdonnel]

Why would you throw your Olympic uniform away?

No idea why someone would toss theirs but I don’t understand what legal sanctions the team could face for throwing away clothes.

Most are Americans so maybe they truly don’t care about Mexico?

Not a very American, patriotic attitude to have. Guess that 1st amendment doesn’t mean that much?

The opposite of woke is asleep.

I can't imagine actively cheering "against" an athlete, or being happy in their failure or defeat. People love to see giants fall...especially when the giant isn't on your team. Sad really.

Same. Of course I want to see USA win, but I’ve been equally excited for Daley & Lee in diving. I cried seeing Diaz win in weightlifting.

The irony was people rooting against USA in women’s soccer & instead rooting for Sweden. Apparently not understanding their style of government?


But the truth is people love to build others up only so they can tear them down. It’s sad really.
