[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former gymnast and doctor I believe that Simone’s decision was the safest. She executes moves that are very complicated. If you’re not on top mentally and physically, the outcome could be disastrous. Things like spinal cord injury are often irreversible. That said, lots of money was invested into her development. Simone must have had some sense that things weren’t going well. I actually believe that she dropped hints last year implying that she wasn’t sure about training for another year. With this sudden pull out, her fans deserve more of an explanation. She doesn’t need to do a tell all. Just a clear coherent explanation. For this she should regroup with her PR folks and a practitioner before further discussion. [/quote] She doesn’t owe her fans anything, but check her social media and see if her explanation is acceptable to you. :roll: I do agree that she seemed pretty burnt out and ready to be done last year. But to make the decision to quit so close to the end after years of hard work would not have been easy. She mentioned how she wanted this Olympics to be for herself but ultimately was doing it for everyone else anyway. No doubt some “fans” would have been hysterical and demanding an explanation even if she’d quit a few months ago.[/quote]
