Summary

GYMTERNET NEWS

The Simone Tour
- We discuss the Gold Over America Tour (Get it? The...GOAT? DO YOU GET IT?????) and why we love everything about this
- You know who doesn't love everything about this? Jon Horton. Spencer and Kensley go toe-to-toe about Horton's tour comments and the subsequent Twitter dustup. Jessica has some theories about why the men won't be on Simone's tour, which includes a homework assignment for you over the holiday break (because she's totally the mean teacher)
Russia and 2020: What's Going on There?
- We dispel some myths and inaccurate news headlines about Russia's Olympic "ban" that definitely isn't a ban
- What it means for gymnastics (spoiler: nothing)
College Intrasquads
- That time Jay Clark fell over while spotting, a mysterious bars routine that may or may not be exciting (?), and Jessica's celebrity-guest-judge experience at UCLA
And the Rest
- Morgan Hurd and Sam Mikulak are going to American Cup, Amy White is no longer with USAG, Maggie Haney's hearing was moved, Raducan stepped down, Diego Hypolito retired, Kenzo is back, and Jordan Chiles wore a reindeer onesie for some reason?
