We've established that kar isn't Jew. No need to suck up to him like that.
I actually picked Serbia because i heard last week that Novak Djokavic is the best mens tennis player of all time, Chris said it.
IDK if tennis is an olympic sport, but that statement resonated with me.
Good call, tbh. I saw something yesterday that Federer and Nadal aren't going to the Olympics. I assume that means that tennis IS an Olympic sport; otherwise that doesn't seem like it would be a newsworthy. But I would imagine that's a guaranteed gold for Djokavic if the only other players that normal people have heard of aren't playing.

Tennis is an Olympic sport and Djokivic is playing. I went to tennis at the 1996 Olympics. It was fun.

That Greek dude has a shot, he played pretty well at Wimbledon

Every Greek that I know lets Guats do the work on grass
So...Simone Biles basically quit the team competition because of her mental health. I'm not sure where I stand on this--I get that mental health is a really big deal right now, but if you're an athlete and you've been training for years for this moment shouldn't you be mentally prepared?

That female tennis player's mental health would not allow her to answer banal questions from reporters forcing her to withdraw from the French Open and Wimbledon.
However her mental health allowed her to be the focus of a documentary, Vanity Fair profile and in the SI Swimsuit Issue.

I think that's where I'm leaning as well--you can't just pick and choose where you want to have the attention.
If anything I think we need to appreciate someone like Michael Phelps even more for being the GOAT in his sport. He was able to live up to the ridiculous expectations time and time again without crumbling under the enormous pressure.

The impression that I got is that she felt like it was affecting her physical performance, to the point where she thought she'd be detrimental to the team. I think she was basically ready to retire, decided to stay on for 1 last Olympics, then that Olympics got continued for an entire year and is being done in the weirdest circumstances....that to me is a bit more than a mental health day.
