    look i get it, but i coul get a PHD in other sport, lets say soccer, and lnow everything about it but also know I am not good enough to play. Academics and Olympics are different. Can you imagine being a serious and talented Australian break dancer and having to watch that?! Death treats are ridiculous and as a normal person of couse I don’t think that’s right. But I think she did know she wasn’t good enough but wanted to go for the novelty regardless of other athletes that were better.

    She knew what she was doing and did it anyway and that’s a shitty move from a shitty person

    sorry for the typos im in a moving train in my phone lol

      She beat those other break dancers at comps to get nominated. She didn’t get selected out of no where.

          He should have recused himself from judging a comp his wife was in but there is no definitive proof he displayed favouritism.

          She failed to score when she actually tried, and you can see the difference in those attempts, and then did something completely different that we’re talking about.

          Honestly her performance and the French pole vaulter’s… pole are the only things notable about this years Olympics.
