So now we're rewarding people for quitting! Simone knows the stress of being in the Olympics and on the world stage: Plain and simple...she quit.

Shannon Miller is 5x times better at this sport but unfortunately she is white and pretty

She probably would have got the gold medal. But she regrets it because she quit

I wonder what country takes the gold now.

I'm not watching the Olympics so I don't really care.
