How many of them were selected to go primarily because of their "diversity"?

Mental issues at the Olympics

Quote
While Team USA did not immediately explain why Biles was pulled, NBC's John Roethlisberger relayed: "We've just been told that, with regards to Simone withdrawing, it is not injury-related. It is a mental issue that Simone is having."https://t.co/be9LZmWgn7

She's the best thing to come out of the Games.  Her pride and emotion,  but humility and thankfulness shine in the interview.

Its been on CBS and Fox, doubt you'll see it on CNN  or MSNBC

So, she's the daughter of a Nigerian immigrant? Explains a LOT.

My prediction for the 2024 olympics? Either they go full "Dancing with the Masked Star Idols" or they trim it back to athletics and skill contests.
