I-American Gymnastics Association ikhiphe isitatimende icaphuna “izingqinamba zezokwelapha” kodwa ayizange ichaze kabanzi ngokuqhubekayo.

I-BRENNAN: Cishe ihora nohhafu owedlule, ekuqaleni komncintiswano weqembu, njengoba ushilo, i-United States yayithembisa kakhulu ukuthi izophumelela. USimone Biles, ngokushintshana kokuqala, ukugudluza, into ayenza kahle kakhulu, uyaziqhayisa nge-Amanar - kuyindlala enzima. Kepha lapho ehla enyuka, bekungathi ulahlekelwe yindlela emoyeni. Waphuma enkingeni futhi wathola i-1 1/2 spins esikhundleni sama-spins amaningi nama-flips kunalokho ayekulindele, wacishe wawa ngamadolo. Lapho nje ewela phansi, wayebukeka sengathi uphethwe yizinhlungu ezithile, futhi wacishe wakhala izinyembezi. Ukhulume nomqeqeshi wakhe. Kungenelele umqeqeshi. Ushiye inkundla yokudlala, washiya inkundla, wabuya ngemuva kwesikhashana.
Ngokusobala, okwamanje, ngikhathazeke kakhulu ngokuthi yini engalungile kuye. Umuntu omkhulu kunabo bonke isikhathi sonke kungenzeka ukuthi athole enye indondo yegolide, njengoba enza eRio, nakwezinye izindondo zegolide kamuva emdlalweni. USimone Byers ubuyile. Kodwa ngaleso sikhathi, wagqoka ijezi, umfaniswano weqembu, nesifihla-buso. Kusobala emizuzwini embalwa, uNoel, ukuthi ubengeke abambe iqhaza kulo mdlalo. Ngemuva kwalokho obambe iqhaza uthathe indawo yakhe kokunye ukushintshana okuthathu, okusaqhubeka kulo mdlalo.
INKOSI: Bengicabanga ngalokho ongakubona lapho ukhona, engizokubona ku-TV, nokuthi-unemisebenzi yeqembu, ngakho iqembu lihlangene. Uyakubona yini ukubukeka kobuso bezinye izintombi? Ingabe bayasabela kulokho okwenzekile?
UBrennan: O, impela. Kwakushaqisa lapho kwenzeka okokuqala, ukukhathazeka kwangempela. Ngisho, basondele, kusobala. Baziqeqeshe ndawonye izinyanga, iminyaka. Manje isikhathi. Lona ama-Olimpiki. Njengoba unyaka owedlule wahlehliswa ngenxa yalolu bhubhane, lokhu akuyona nje iminyaka emine, kodwa iminyaka emihlanu. Ngakho-ke, ukhathazeke kakhulu ngaye, futhi bonke abancintisana nabo bakhathazeke kakhulu ngaye. Ngokusobala, inkundla uqobo lwayo ayinalutho, abekho abalandeli-kodwa bamangele. Ngisho, ngicabanga ukuthi wonke ama-Olimpiki kunjengokungathi ame ngalesi sikhathi. USimone Biles, umuntu owaziwa kakhulu kuma-Olimpiki, oneminyaka engama-24 ubudala, lezi yizindaba zezemidlalo ezimbi kunazo zonke kuma-Olimpiki, empeleni, uzama ukuthola indawo kulo bhubhane nakuyo yonke imikhawulo, ukuvinjelwa nokuhlukaniswa kwabantu Qhubeka lapha. Yebo yebo, impela kungokomzwelo, kunzima, kuyashaqisa-cishe noma yiziphi izindaba ezinkulu eziphathelene nezemidlalo ongazicabanga. Yilokhu esikubonile lapha kulobubusuku.
INKOSI: Kusho ukuthini lokhu kulo lonke iqembu laseMelika? Ngabe kukhona okubambele ukugcwalisa isikhathi esisele samaSimone Biles?
UBrennan: Akukacaci ukuthi uNoel noSimon Byers bangaqhubeka yini nokuzibandakanya kowamanqamu okuzungezile noma wemishini. I-American Gymnastics Association ithe izovivinywa nsuku zonke ukuze kutholakale izinga lokuphasiswa kwayo kwezokwelapha esikhathini esizayo emincintiswaneni. Yilokhu esikwaziyo manje.
