Oh, Machete popped out to end the inning.
and she did not quit after a disappointing loss.
Would you have a problem with a player who knew he was hurting the team and risking further injuring himself telling the coach to sub him out?
I think Biles might be going through some debilitating depression that she didn’t plan on or wasn’t counting on happening at any point the past 16 years that she has trained her ass off–for this moment. I think she should be cut some slack.

The longest we swam in high school was the 500. I did that in a meet once. Once.

These athletes are freaking amazing.
A 1500 seems like a punishment, not a goal.

For the distance races, we had these whiteboards that you lower into the water as the swimmer approached so they’d know what lap they were on. Instead of putting 10 or 12 or whatever, sometimes we’d write “fuck you” or something and show it to the poor schlub on lap 18 or something. That was about the extent of my contributions to those races.

Just over here trying to process Hudson on the swim team.
Maybe he was a diver who specialized in the cannonball.

Love that swing from Yordan in that situation.

Despite your view of me, I was actually a good ball player and pretty good all around athlete back in the day. As a swimmer I was pretty much a roster filler, but I wasn’t as bad as you’d like to think.

Astros put runners on the corners with two out but Correa hits a dribbler.
Mid 6, 8-2. I’m going to bed.
Yeah, that’s not gonna work for our entertainment so we’re gonna rewrite it as a modern day Back to School.
We’ve already had a Triple Lindy reference. It’s practically writing itself.
