    they said the race was under review, but all came clean. I’m guessing it had to do with that

    Not saying other sports parents are sane but gymnastics just seems like the worst of crazy fuck parents. They have their kids living on a knife’s edge

    crazier still how the world record hasn't been touched in decades and most of the top 10 is from pre-2000.

    even if you assume those guys were roided up, it's not like today's athletes aren't on some crazy designer steroid, either

    This is the last event so yeah. She gave more of an effort in the high jump than the long jump, which was surprising.
