>>You are being very unfair about Biles
Oh quite possibly. I've never heard of her before, not my sort of sport really. I enjoy the Olympics (usually) but there's very few of the sports I follow outside the actual events.
>>On the day, clearly no-one including her knew she would become unfit. Its erroneous in this case to suggest she shouldn't have tried.
Fair.
But why do we attach any importance to it over and above a broken leg or injured muscle? Are we not told that we should respect emotional difficulties just as we respect body injuries? Surely not more?
