Simone Biles' face and presence is all over the advertising world, she makes big money being a "star" in the athletic world ... supposedly the symbol of what hard work and determination can give you ... a gold medal and a place on the USA Olympic team ... that is until you screw up and make a mistake on your first round in competition at the Olympics and instead of brushing it off and moving on (as in the show must go on) ... Ms. Biles chose to quit and walk off in a huff... claiming mental illness/ stress and pressure from twitter!!!
WTF!!!! and now she is being labeled a hero by many...in a world of words matter, not reality and the opposite is true, not the truth... the youth of today admire quitters and narcissistic behavior... and they redefine weakness as strength... as the old saying goes ... "if you cannot take the heat get out of the kitchen"... sad for I am sure there were hundreds of talented gymnasts who could have been at the Olympics instead of Ms. Biles and not run away and folded on their team members like she did when she made a mistake ...
But hey ... I am sure Nike will sign her up for a "sneaker deal" worth millions... called the "sneakers" to run away on your team mates shoe! If Ms. Biles is the best America has to offer we are in big trouble ... and sadly she is becoming more common place within her generation ... maybe these young athletes need psychological screening / training as well as training in the gym ...
