THIS is how you speak about other athletes after your retirement, Mykayla!
-
It's very satisfying that 4 Tokyo Olympians can now go to Paris and have the full Olympic experience. The empty stands and the isolation from all other teams must have been strange, especially since the Olympics seems to be a very social experience.
-
Shawn is full of class.
-
Fenton kept referring to them as "repeat offenders", Shawn just replied with "veterans". Smart girl (Shawn), the host couldn't get it, though.
-
I adore Shawn Johnson East…she’s been a solid favorite of mine for a long time! I respect her opinion and believe this Olympics will be amazing to witness!!
-
Well said Shawn. “They have nothing to prove to us, It’s for them.”
-
"repeat offenders" seriously? They're athlete's not criminals. C'mon
-
4:32 There are PLENTY of better terms than repeat “offenders”.
-
I think that referring to Simone and the others as “repeat offenders” is pejorative. I think Shawn’s response was spot on. These women have nothing to prove to us. They are stars, no matter what the outcome.
-
Can you change from repeat offenders to returning olympians?
-
The fact that the US can even contend after 5 gymnasts succumbing to injury ( McClain, Douglas, DiCello, Blakely and Jones) is amazing. The last three were probables. I'm the international judges will really like Hezly Rivera-and she is young.
-
The Women’s Gymnastic competition in Paris will be fierce. Andrade from Brazil, the girls from China and the American squad will produce some of the most dramatic sports stories at this year’s Paris Olympics. Can’t wait!
-
This most mentally mature team ever! If they all focus on their zen like qualities and supportI've chemistry with one another, they will achieve redemption and glory in these upcoming Olympic games.
-
Idk why but I was smiling the entire interview. I loved this.
-
she is soooo lovely! so cool to see how positive and truly happy for them she is. it would be understandable if she had some bitterness about the toxicity of usa gymnastics when she was competing, so it's extra amazing to hear how positive she is about all of the changes and what it means for the current generation of gymnasts :)
-
It's great seeing shawn!!!!
-
It’s the changes to the NCAA rules that allowed these women to stay in the sport and stay fit, while perfecting their form and mental toughness.
-
I remember all the fanfare every time Michael Phelps and his "veterans" made the Olympic team multiple times. It was a celebration and people were glad they were back. It's time to see this in gymnastics as well. Also, those injuries might have been divine intervention. It might be destiny for the returning contenders to be there. Like they are supposed to be in Paris. It's awesome that this team is history making in that regard.
-
This was such a good interview! Excellent Q+A
-
She’s not aging a bit 😊
