[quote=Anonymous]Disgusting? She’s a dual citizen athlete cashing checks in a global market. That’s capitalism. You’re worried about her being “full pay” at Stanford? Stanford doesn’t even offer athletic scholarships for skiing. And given Eileen Gu reportedly made eight figures in endorsements, I’m guessing she isn’t spending time with FAFSA. Calling it disgusting because she took $14M is rich in a country that worships NIL deals and endorsement money. She made a business decision in a global sport. Her product is herself, and she’s clearly dangerous good at it. She might as well capitalize on it while she can. You don’t have to like it, but calling disgusting is selective outrage at best. Team USA wasn’t cutting her a comparable check. If you and Vance want to be outraged, redirect that to figure out how to create a rewarding ($) system that keeps our best dual citizenship athletes on Team USA. [/quote]
