Time to be apologetic.

I owe Simone Biles an apology for some of the statements I've made. I also owe her an apology for the fact that I broke one of my core rules about trying to wait for the full picture to show itself before forming an opinion.

Some foul mouths who jumped the gun early with their judgements owe her bigger apologies.

The mainstream media owes her an apology for elevating the posturing over the facts.

A lot of you owe Joe Rogan and apology because he's one of the few people who actually brought this up.

Biles has been on medication for ADHD for years and Japanese policies didn't allow her to continue her medication while in competition.

Basically, she was forced to compete on the largest athletic stage in the world while going through a drug withdraw.

The fact that she was trying to compete in the first place is superhuman.
