So, now we know what’s required. A few flips here . Maybe a twist or two there . .
To the folks criticizing Simone Biles, I'll make you a deal:. Do a double flip, two-and-a-half-twist vault in front of a worldwide viewing audience--a move so dangerous there's debate over whether it should be in competition--and I'll pretend to give a shit about your opinion.

I come away from tonight’s #GS game feeling better about the team than I did before the game. The Eagles have lost 3 games it should have lost — they won’t be underdogs again until Oct. 31 in Boone. I expect them to be 4-3 (2-1) at that point. Think with ya head, not ya heart.
