Link to the article? No offense but sounds like BS.
They showed her in the USA championships right before the Olympics falling off a balance beam and stepping out of bounds on the floor exercise. She has been making mistakes she doesn't normally make prior to the Olympics. If she takes addrerall we can assume she had it with her in America and was making these mental mistakes. [Reply]

I read that she has an exemption from the Olympic Committee. She's been on that and Ritalin for a long time for ADHD ... but it's illegal in Japan. [Reply]

The first part of my post states that I have ZERO proof. It's just something that I've heard (from someone that is usually pretty reliable about football stuff).
I don't follow gymnastics, so I have no idea what she's been doing or not doing in competition.
I do like to watch the highlight clips without all the boring stuff though. :-) [Reply]

yeah, you usually don’t post BS. Wasn’t citing you for BS. Your a great poster. :-)
I don't even know what to compare that Michael Andrew to. Guy's from Kansas too. He dominates the first 150m of a medley race then completely implodes the last 50 in the freestyle swim. Went from dominating to 5th in one length of the pool. That was wild. [Reply]

And the announcers were basically roasting him the entire race in anticipation.
"John, watch this. This guy is going to completely shit the bed here. If he hasn't lapped someone after the first three legs, he may as well climb up that ladder and quit." [Reply]

Yeah I honestly thought they were being overdramatic, but they might have undersold it. Guy looked like he was doing fine, then died like a fish. [Reply]

Yeah that was hilarious/crazy.
It's weird that he has that big of a weakness and it's 100% fixable with training and yet this still happens in the Olympics. [Reply]
