Simone Biles may have a physical impairment, not an emotional one, so why is everyone stating it is an emotional issue, cuz she's a girl?

Amidst the media cackling about Simone Biles "mental health exist" were Simone's own words that seem to make her withdrawal from 2021 Olympic events a physical issue and not an emotional one.....paraphrasing Simone...."I did not know where I was when I was in the air just before landing"....   

The video Sportscam Detective saw backs up Simone's statement  about loss of equilibrium by how much her legs collapsed on impact. The ground came up faster than Simone could plan for and as powerful as she is in elevating herself into the air, not knowing when to prepare for a proper landing could result in a severe injury.

So why has Nanny journalism decided to call Simone Biles dropping out of an Olympic event a "mental health exist" when it was a solid decision based on the acknowledgement that her timing was off.  Someone built as powerfully as Simone Biles cannot afford to be off on her landings because that power means she can launch herself higher in the air than anyone else who opposes her.

The media has devolved into an "I'm ok, you're ok, we're all ok, no matter what we do" agenda in which nothing is ever really wrong or, unknown.

According to the news media, there was no voter fraud in 2020 even though the Media did virtually zero pre-investigations into the possibilities that the record number of ballots being mailed out could result in some type of illegal ballot harvesting.

We still don't know if a batch of ballots can be run through and counted twice because nobody thought to do such an investigation before the election, therefore it never happened.

Now Simone Biles makes a completely proficient decision to not endanger her own health from not knowing when to brace for her landings, and the nanny media calls it an emotional welfare decision.
 
The consequences of running a story without the right type of investigating makes the Simone Biles situation worse. What if we come to discover that some kind of lighting quirk based on the intensity of the lighting, how close the light arrays are to each other, the speed at which they strobe, and how high up the lights were, and whatever other element may have gone into the lighting is what caused Simone Biles to lose her equilibrium?

What if we discover Simone Biles had an inner ear infection that resulted in her losing her equilibrium in the middle of a routine while she was in mid air?

To call Simone Biles withdrawal from 2021 Olympic events a mental health issue when it appears to be based on her loss of equilibrium may be one of the greatest injustices done to female athletes by the Nanny Media.

The Nanny Media has left the impression that women opt out for valid emotional reasons while men opt out due to physical injury.

Both the NFL and MLB have flaws in their instant replay guidelines that need to be immediately corrected.

Both the NFL and MLB have failed to acknowledge that a play that has more time elapse, will then need more time to be reviewed. In the NFL, if a running back with the football runs around the corner and goes out bounds five yards down field, the time needed to decide whether to question where the ball was placed is adequate. If however, the runner runs around the corner and downfield 40 yards, the defense will need more time to review if the runner may have stepped out of bounds at some point during their run. This situation actually happened in 2020 and it may have influenced who would make the playoffs because the defense just did not have enough time to review the entire play. The player actually stepped out of bounds relatively early in their long run, but there was just not enough time to review the entire play before the next play started.

The same mistake is occurring in Major League Baseball. A batter who hits a double and then tries for a triple but pops off the base for a moment as the tag is being applied is mistakenly called safe. Unlike a play at first base that takes 4 seconds and can be more easily reviewed, a play that spans three can take 12 seconds to complete, yet the review time is the same as a play that only took 4 seconds to complete. This is insanity, and just plain wrong. Not only does the play at third take an extra 8 seconds, but reviewing different camera angles adds additional time. Technology does exist that allows all the camera angles to be "locked" together so in theory the review process is faster. But besides seeing if the runner's foot came off the third base base while the tag was being applied, a review to determine if a challenge will be called should also include making sure the runner touched first base and second base and make sure the hit was fair. All of that cannot be accomplished in the same amount of time as runner beating out a throw from the shortstop at first base.  

There is NO WAY a potential triple can be reviewed in the same amount of time as a play at first base. There is NO WAY a 35 yard running gain can be reviewed in the same amount of time as a 5 yard gain. Yet in both the NFL and MLB examples provided above, both plays for each sport gets the same amount of time to be reviewed. 

Please, NFL and MLB, correct this silly instant replay pre-review oversight. As more and more fans bet on games, these are the kind easily preventable mistakes that one day could lead to someone who bet on a game and lost because of this inconsistent instant replay  silliness, thus losing their bet and their mind and possibly harming others out of anger and frustration because they knew they were ripped off by a system that was too elitist to fix an obvious oversight.
