Mayim Bialik is a proponent of pseudoscience, so that's unfortunate.

Maybe the IOC should concern itself with things that matter, like what McKayla Maroney has been tweeting today.

Get "in contact" with the USOPC about that.
In the @30for30 series about the Karolyis and USAG, there is an episode that explores the Sydney Games, and members of that women's gymnastic team talk about being cut off from everyone and isolated, housed outside the Village in a Ranch-like "prison," starved and overtrained.
How many American gymnasts and former Olympians live with the damage caused by what was permitted by the USOPC and USAG over the years?

A whole lot more than anyone realizes.

Buried in the negative replies to Chris Chavez' tweet was this gem: spikes.worldathletics.org/post/gianmarco…
Amazing.

Sydney Pickrem, re: the pressure: "I was absolutely shitting myself."

NO POOPING IN THE POOL.

But congrats on the bronze!
Honestly, those four women are a delight to root for.
Those four women are a delight to cheer for.

Rather than media outlets rehashing various angles about Simone Biles, maybe spend some time elevating the profiles of other gymnasts involved in the Games.
She's a gorgeous athlete.
That vault tho... 💯
