Simone Biles pulls out of Olympic team gymnastics final

1. I actually forgive Simone for pulling herself out of the gymnastics team. She cares about her health and safety.

2. This comment section is unimaginably disturbing. Good on everyone out here for regressing so far back in terms of empathy, compassion, understanding and treating your fellow human as a fellow human. It's easy to see now from all of these disgusting people calling her pathetic how ordinary people in the 1930s turned into Nazis and SS in Germany, and followed to conduct the Holocaust. All of you are right up there too and it's truly terrifying.

3. if youre the goat you dont step down she left her team mental health is not an excuse she should compete no matter what yes i am white and male btw

4. I can finally watch gymnastics again.

5. Mary Lou Retton would've never walked

6. Pulled out, fine. But maybe we should stop calling her the "greatest of all time". When it comes to being an Olympian it isn't just about being physically athletic, but you need to be mentally strong as well.

7. She's taken a medal away from someone else
   Who could have gone . I wouldn't pick her next time

8. So your history is only 4yrs????

9. Shes too busy with her boyfriend, drugs, and drinking, she did awful in every category she did not deserve to be in the Olympic this years she wouldn't even smile, she preformed like high schoolers do
   Disappointing

10. By continuously calling her the greatest you people jinxed for her.

11. Shouldn't be reporting on somebody's face. Face don't mean nothing. I hate when people try to read my mind from my face. Move!

12. I'm struggling to understand what's going on. She is still there in Tokyo, but keeps pulling out of events on a daily basis….does she just wake up in the morning and say ..not today, maybe tomorrow???….. must be very difficult for the team and coaches…weird.

13. Simone I am very proud of you stepping up to your feelings. Only you know how you feel and if it don’t feel right it’s not Right. Being young you are fearless from all. But to become a young women your inter-motions plays a part on attacking you. Take your time and heal and take care your mental status because gymnastics will be there if you are alive or dead. I’m sure you have enough gold medal 🥇 so move on to something you are comfortable doing. Wish you luck Simone and do you!

14. She's done. I don't want to see Simone Biles in any Olympic competition moving forward. She was thinking she would receive a Gold Medal in Mental Health Bravery… but that is not the case. Step aside Simone, you disappoint us all.

15. Dude doesn't know how spoiler alerts work 😆

16. USA still won the gold medal y’all

17. The real reason has come out:
    Simone Biles has ADHD and takes Ritalin
    1. Ritalin and Adderall are illegal in Japan, no therapeutic exceptions. So Simone performed without medicine, until one day she couldn't function…
    2. She's always had a therapeutic use exception.; Rio, Worlds, Nationals.
    3. Japan shouldn't be allowed to host international games.

18. What a big deal!

19. If she couldn't handle the competition she should of gracefully declined the opportunity and given it to some one who truly wanted it. She stole an opportunity for another elite athlete to compete because she didn't appreciate the privilege she had to compete in the Olympics.

20. i just wanted to be the 900th comment🙂👍🏾

21. How pathetic
