"This has seriously been such an honor to be able to step in for Simone and be able to win this medal," Skinner, 24, said Sunday night. "To be able to do this for myself, and [I'm] so grateful for the opportunities to come back after being an alternate in 2016 and having [had] COVID and pneumonia and all the setbacks I have had."

She did well. Good on her. At 24, this was likely her last shot at an Olympic medal. She cashed in!

Sad that you had to involve Ms. Biles in your post though.

How about just congratulation Ms. Skinner on her accomplishments without bringing up Ms. Biles? Gee, there's a thought.

In a few threads (if you haven't done so already) you'll be complaining about the media covering Ms. Biles too much.

This will be her first and last medal. She actually did a good job. Simone has a treasure trove of medals and several routines named after her.

Biles should not be part of the conversation in any way but as an athlete. However, for Prog propaganda she was uplifted for purpose because of her culture. It did not hep that she was not an amateur anymore as she has been paid for endorsements and other ways.

Simone will always be part of the conversation. She is the GOAT of gymnastics. Without her no one would have even watched the Olympics..
