12. "Mostly false"

I agree that there is no excuse for racquet tossing or any other unsportsmanlike conduct.


He threw a fugging temper tantrum on the court, smashing two rackets and slamming a ball in to a sideline judges neck. He took his teammate, a woman out of her quest for a medal by his actions. A child like tantrum. And he walks away unscathed.

Biles on the other hand was praised by many and vilified by more. She was called un-American as she quietly with grace and style removed herself from the games. Then again she is a black woman so of course she is treated by the press differently. Novack got away scott free.

Biles was indeed referenced in the report.

Mostly false is not false.
