Marcus Trescothick Jonathan Trott Brendan Fevola Todd Carney I assume there's more wrong with Bernard Tomic than simply being Bernard Tomic.

looks like we can add Simone Biles to the list and I hate to say it because I like her.. but she basically quit right in the middle of the team competition last night because of, in her own words, "mental health" issues. Link... www.bbc.com/sport/av/olympics/57993247

Did Zack Greinke and/or Joey Votto have problems earlier in their career? Jon Daly Milton Bradley Greinke used to openly talk about his social anxieties and he would say it's why he would avoid larger media markets in contract talks, preferring the smaller markets for his own sanity. I'm not sure if that's still the case, as he played in LA for a few years and was great, although the west coast isn't quite the same animal as the northeast corridor, for better or for worse.

Phoenix is heaven. When I lived on the west coast, I had friends from Scottsdale so I went there a bunch. It was truly beautiful but I believe it is vastly more built up nowadays. Didn’t spend a ton of time in Phoenix but I remember enjoying my time there, brief as it was.

Link... www.bbc.com/sport/av/olympics/57993247Choking is a mental health issue now? Peyton Manning, A-Rod, Greg Norman, the 2004 NY Yankees, the 2007 Patriots, the list goes on and on. I just watched the final and I'm more annoyed after having actually seen it. So you screwed up a vault. I get it, this stuff is hard. Two of the Russian girls fell off the balance beam. Did they quit and ask for replacements? No, they finished their routines and their team won gold. I'm not upset that Biles choked, it happens to the best of them. I'm just blown away that an athlete of her caliber would simply quit because she got caught up in the moment.

LOL!!
I've just never heard anyone describe it as a "mental health" issue like Biles did. Maybe I'm reading this wrong but it just struck me as kind of peculiar. I wish her well in the future but yeah, maybe she meant it as an excuse like "hey I choked, but it was because of my mental health issues, not because I suck today".
I feel it kind of robbed the Russians of a chance to say they "beat the American team that featured Simone Biles". I didn't like it either. you don't quit in the middle of the damn competition like that. But still, why would she bring up mental health? hmmm...

I watch Greinke pitch a lot and he just looks nutty. It's those eyes he has.
But I do like him, he's been pitching really well lately.
