    The Americans on Twitter are gonna have a field day with this one. Better stay off there for a bit.

    Anyways I feel so bad for Jordan. This is utterly terrible and she does not deserve this. Oh well - LA2028 she’ll be back and she’ll get gold for sure!!

        That whole sub is a cesspool.

        They are doubting the PRESS RELEASES of the Romanian Gymnastics Federation, they genuinely believe the Romanians lied or fabricated the evidence that Chiles’ coach was late, even after CAS ruled that they were right.

        And they praise everything related to the US Gymnastics Federation, they believed Chiles’ coach has some video that proves she was on time just because she claims she does (no proof). Also, they didn’t believe the Romanian lawyer when he said the ruling was made based on the official Olympics clock because some rando on reddit posted that CAS ruled based on “a Romanian video” :))

        Also, they are attacking Ana (calling her now “the Romanian girl” - lol, you know her name), Sabrina, Nadia Comăneci and everyone in the Romanian organizations.

          This is how US get so many medals, the amount of rematch US asked and got accepted is way higher than any other country (and often it is because they didn’t perform well). And then they act like IOC, CAS or WADA is against them.

          The threads from that subreddit are pretty tame. I have not seen any drama besides confusion about what kind of evidence Romanian submitted. I have seen many comments gracious to the athletes affected.

          What are you talking about lol
