Yeah, that's why I brought up Jimmer.
You quoted two different things.

Now that is the spirit of the Olympics. Go back to your bunker and be miserable there.

Pennies on the dollar and wouldn't allow his dad to coach. Seems pretty damn stupid right now.
What about when Noah lyles wants his dad to coach? Hell his dad was more accomplished in the track world than Greg duplantis.
As far as money he would make more in the long term being a U.S. Olympic hero than a Swedish olympian.
Also what happened to caring about the flag on your back? I thought representing your country and hearing your national anthem play on The podium was the goal.

I love how your misplaced anger, likely borne from jealousy, is attacking Mondo when it's the USOC's fault for being retarded.

Because they didn’t bend their rules to win the approval of an entitled teenager?
Here I was thinking you were supposed to earn things in America

Jimmer is not an NBA player and has been playing 3x3 exclusively for 2 years. Its not a sport you can just decide to play for the Olympics without making it your sole focus.

Except it is considering Hailey Van Lith is on the women's team despite playing college ball this past season.

SouthSudanDroppings must be fuming that Duop Reath chose Australia.

It’s not like he went to Alabama and said roll tide. He went to SMU (Sweden)and they aren’t even a rival. I still wish him the best

No because most people on here aren't as stupid as you.

You obviously don't understand how hard it is to make the USA team. If you have the opportunity to represent another country that you are closely related to, you do it.
My daughter has friends on her high school soccer team playing for Italy, Jordan, and Mexico's U17 team right now.

He’s the top track athlete of Sweden. If he were USA, he’d be an afterthought. Great financial decision by the kid.

Some people should not be allowed to have an opinion.

I pull for my country during the Olympics. If he was competing against an American, I’d be pulling for the American.
Yet you pull for lebum James who disrespects our country. Mondo will go down as one of the greatest olympians by the time he retires

entitled? He earned the title as the greatest in is sport of all time and will become of the greatest olympian in terms of accomplishments he EARNED.

Born and raised in Lafayette, where multiple generations of Duplantis’ have been. Lots of people here know them. I’m happy for Mondo.
