She was asked about pressure. Had nothing to do with Biles. She answered honestly as her own opinion to the question. Don’t read into it. She’s the epitome of an Olympian competitor
Well said. The top competitors have the most pressure but it's also relative to each situation.
Just watching the heats and qualifications, we see enough bad luck.
They should abolish the no false start rule. It is sadistic. To hell with the part about making the meets run more quickly.
I feel badly for the guy from Angola in the 100m preliminaries who stood straight up and then realized immediately that he was screwed.
Another day, another cry from the snowflake. I say we cancel you for mocking autism.

Please explain the suffered more than any Olympian ever remark.
Not sure I would put her at the top of the heap, but being sexually abused by the team doc would put her in the discussion.
Hungarian gymnast Agnes Keleti survived the Holocaust to go on to win four medals at the 1952 Olympics at age 31 and another six medals at the 1956. She missed the 1948 games because of injury and the 1940 and 1944 Olympics because they were cancelled because of war. Her father died at Auschwitz.
https://youtu.be/E5jDR2GmVywAbsolute shocker. As the late Robin Williams once said, "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always"
agreed. it's also an assumption that her remark had anything to do with Biles. To me it sods more like it's just a mantra Mclaughlin uses .
"Pressure is an illusion"
Well, spiritually it is correct. Ask Buddha or Tolle. Pressure is your mind getting away from you because thinking too much.
You don't see Tom Brady not playing in the Super Bowl.
You don't see a top pitcher not wanting the ball in game 7 of the World Series?
Biles is the most decorated athlete in the Olympics and she quit. She is a multi millionaire because of the Olympics Otherwise no one would care about her and she would just me a short girl.

When Syd's the GOAT, she can comment. Until then, she can be quiet.
When Biles defended her all-around gold medal as did Caslavska, she would be the GOAT.
