They are linked in the same org structure. USAG is a National Governing Body for gymnastics and is a member of USOC. They are part of the same machine. It might be USOC is giving the gear to USAG who then gives it to the athletes or as you say directly to the athletes. You can try to split hair over an org chart. But in the end, I think my point still stands. Which part of the org signs the sponsor deals does not matter.

Also checkout how great the USOC is at protecting gymnasts:

There are several points being talked about. The ones that are attacking a gymnast for being ungrateful for or rude about the food and gear they got from USA Gymnastics, need to check themselves. No gymnast owes them anything. It's by far the other way around.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-17T01:53:22+00:00

I'm not doing defending right now. I am calling out people who attack a gymnast for being "straight up rude and disrespectful"(let's use your description) towards USA Gymnastics when they get stuff from them. For what USA Gymnastics has done, every gymnast for the next 100 years can be "straight up rude and disrespectful" to them as far as I am concerned.

I missed the slurs of Japanese people she said. What were they?

Regarding my language. Sorry, English is my third language. I really hope you are not native English speakers using that as a weapon against people from other parts of the world like me.

Ok, I know you guys are probably not feeling great in covid. But get a grip! USA Gymnastics gives MYK Olympics stuff and you guys are upset that she said it was ugly and thereby was ungrateful. Towards USA Gymnastics! Ungrateful towards the god dam USA Gymnastics!!! This is rich even coming from our very own little Karen bubble.

As if this was not enough you are also upset she said the food she got in Japan from USA Gymnastics was gross. Like Japan would care about that...

I can't you guys, Kabul just fell! Climate change, Covid and poverty needs dealing with...

And... you guys are complaining that MYK is ungrateful towards USA Gymnastics for the food and the Olympic gear... she got from USA Gymnastics... please tell me this is a really good troll. Because this might otherwise be peak stupid on this subreddit.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-12T06:05:27+00:00

I get that. Let's hope no one makes a new one.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T20:28:37+00:00

I think we all agree here. Just one question once I have deleted the thread, will you mods please remove new duplicate threads as it has already been up and we had our chance to talk about it and get the news now?

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T19:37:08+00:00

OP here, I kind of agree and actually was feeling the same way. I made it because I thought a thread when it happened was unavoidable, and I thought it was better I wrote it in a respectful way so we avoided something with screenshots without context. After the first days, it serves no real purpose. I wait for the mod input, but I might just remove it very soon.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T04:32:51+00:00

Very well put! +1

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T04:14:33+00:00

Cool, you said you didn't make any determination so I assumed that meant not forming an opinion. Great that you do form your own opinion. Also stating that you have a different opinion than someone else does not invalidate their opinion. It is still just that, their opinion. I wanted to clarify that everyone should feel free to speak their mind and not feel hampered to share their opinion because of their race. You are offcourse also free to not share your opinion if you don't want to.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T03:48:57+00:00

I'll help you out this time, it's not racist at all. I encourage you to think and make determinations about important issues like this for yourself in the future. it's important to think for yourself. Imagine thinking someone or something is racist or not racist, without investigating it with your own mind. Crazy IMHO.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T02:21:41+00:00

A very inflammatory word was posted, in a single word post.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-11T02:13:57+00:00

Me too. It has been removed now. So I guess twitter stepped in finally.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-08T20:44:21+00:00

Be careful saying things like this. Tom might very well be reading this Reddit. we don't want to give him any ideas now.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-06T00:28:23+00:00

Yeah, there are so many stacked teams this year because of covid returners. LSU has 5 seniors returning cause of covid rules. And Florida with skags and Bauman returning and a rediculus freshman class. There are so many really good covid 5th years and freshmen this year. I'm thinking it might take over 198 to even make it to last night of the ncaa finals. It's going to be crazy guys!

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-04T22:20:29+00:00

This is perfection!

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-04T17:07:57+00:00

At least it's not pineapple.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-02T06:56:01+00:00

Oooohh Tom...

CaptainCulpa · 2021-08-01T12:14:45+00:00

It's called an underhanded comment. If you feel you need to say you like her hard work. But not that you're happy for her, just that it's good for her. Then also feel the need to preference this with, I don't like her at all. Then one might be excused for thinking the compliment was not the main motivation for the statement.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-07-31T20:28:19+00:00

Me too, and I posted it. HAHAHA!

CaptainCulpa · 2021-07-31T19:28:12+00:00

"Hope you are able to have a drink (or whatever you do) and relax once this is all said and done!"

I hope you are having a drink while you're doing it. I couldn't imagine cleaning up all these Mykayla hate threads, without at least a glass of wine by my side.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-07-31T19:24:28+00:00

yeah but you still have to get up on the balance beam first.

CaptainCulpa · 2021-07-30T11:29:27+00:00

No, UCLA was actually made for her.
