I'm going to be in NYC to see a show on Saturday, June 1st and in Iceland at the end of June. A lot of fun, but I'm so annoyed to miss nationals and trials!

I think only Shilese and Simone are locks. I think Jade helped herself at this event, and a bad event for Jocelyn didn’t hurt Jade, but I would not say she’s in at this point. Jordan helped herself for sure, but she would definitely need to show a pattern of good meets. Until this meet, I...

I'm not sure I understand the relationship to bullying?

Before this meet she’d qualified in 3 events and was hoping to get a high enough score to qualify for the AA.

Why are we assuming Jade is on the team?

There’s also only been 3 years since the last Olys, instead of 4

Step 2 in the rapist playbook

Suni has competed bars in the last two years, but not floor. I wonder if they couldn’t have her do AA and wanted to put her on the 3 events where she has more to prove.

I bet if you looked back at this event in 2021, it was about the same. I have memories of it being a mess. I think Skye's fall on bars wasn't great, but staying steady after that is good for her. Kayla looked more shaky than last year. Jade definitely did herself favors. I would say that Jade's...

Which means they are choosing not to make certain statements because it is advantageous to them. She implies they're being silenced. :rolleyes: I'm not confused about why it is that Gracie's case wasn't enough. I just think that it's a sad state that he easily could have gotten away with...

What, precisely, is preventing her and Brendan from “having a voice”?

I will say, I'm glad Brendan has been banned by safesport. It's deeply frustrating that Gracie's complaint would not have been enough for consequences to him. People wonder why rape is underreported.

I don't think that shows your team? I ended up with Simone, Skye, Shilese, Jade, and Jocelyn using their overall numbers. If I put in Kayla instead of Jade, it thinks I'm only strong on vault, but TBH, I'd rather have someone who I could put on every apparatus than someone who I'd only be...

Right, the question is less "is it possible he didn't know she was under the age of consent" and more "why does he think he can change tactics from 'I didn't know she was underage' to 'I didn't do it'?"

How would you expect a US organization to handle the welfare of current skaters outside their jurisdiction?
