I’m happy for them that they realize gymnastics doesn’t define them. They have so much more life to live and experience. To laugh and cry and love and grieve. It’s a wild ride. ❤❤❤ good luck to both!

I remember one of the NBC commentators literally during the live coverage of the Rio games suggesting that Aly should go to Tokio The 2016 games were not even over and he already made them seem as not enough

That’s a good interviewer though! Sometimes the interviewer interrupts too much and doesn’t let the conversation flow naturally.

@@megrobs11 It's so lovely. It's funny, I used to interview tons of elite gymnasts in the past, and back then most of them were so media trained (and the gym environment so tense) that very few felt free to really talk in interviews. It's so lovely seeing them older and open and reflective. Loved it.

Why did I think she was born in ‘92. I remember the first games everyone was calling her the older of the group. I thought she was older by 3 years. I’m only a year younger 95er. She’s turning 30 too in a couple days😭 95 kids this is our last full year anyway

@anovemberstar Жыл бұрын

Interesting they both felt people were questioning their Olympic achievements when they were asked if they were going back for another one. But, they were such awesome gymnasts I wanted to know if I'd get to seem them compete at the next Olympics. I suspect that was the intent behind asking them that - take it as a marker of your success, not anything else. 🥰

@Chels-fz5uq Жыл бұрын

Probably because most gymnasts and serious gymnastics fans know that attempting to go to another Olympics in gymnastics after years away from the sport is nearly impossible. One week off from training and you almost have to start all over from the beginning. It’s nothing like other sports where things can just be picked back up easily.

@sethescope Жыл бұрын

to be fair, intent is not the same as impact. just because someone MAY have intended it in a good way doesn't change the fact that it impacted someone in a negative way. the intent doesn't make it better, it doesn't heal the hurt or the pressure they were under. and the fact of the matter is, in this case, the intent doesn't matter because the harm came from being constantly asked over and over by dozens, if not hundreds, of people. does that make sense?

@Chicoandtheman 10 ай бұрын

For me, it wasn’t because I felt what they did wasn’t good enough. I would have asked them because I absolutely love them and enjoy the heck out of their gymnastics and seeing them compete.
