U-Noel King we-NPR kunye ne-USA NAMUHLA umbhali wekholamu kwezemidlalo uChristine Brennan uthethe ngomthambo waseMelika uSimone Biles urhoxa kwiklasikhi yeqela lokugqibela ngenxa yeengxaki zonyango.
USimone Byers urhoxile kukhuphiswano lweqela labasetyhini kwi-Olimpiki yaseTokyo. Umbutho waseMelika weGymnastics ukhuphe ingxelo ecaphula “imiba yezonyango” kodwa khange achaze ngakumbi. Iqela labasetyhini baseMelika lelona lithandwayo ukuphumelela igolide, kodwa bakhubeka kancinane kwimijikelo yokuqala. Ngoku ukunye nam nguChristine Brennan, ungumbhali wekhomphyutha kwezemidlalo e-USA Today, kwaye useTokyo. Molo ekuseni, uChristine — okanye molo uChristine.
I-BRENNAN: Malunga neyure enesiqingatha eyadlulayo, ekuqaleni kokhuphiswano lweqela, njengoko watshoyo, i-United States yayithembisa kakhulu ukuphumelela. I-Simone Biles, kukujikeleza kokuqala, ukugungqa, into elungileyo kakhulu kuyo, iyaqhayisa nge-Amanar-yinto enzima yokugungqa. Kodwa xa esihla esihla, ibingathi ulahlekile yindlela emoyeni. Uphumile kwingxaki kwaye wafumana i-1 1/2 ejikelezayo endaweni yokujikeleza ngakumbi kunye nokujija kunokuba ebelindele, waphantse wawa ngamadolo. Ngokukhawuleza wawa phantsi, wayebonakala ngathi uphethwe yintlungu ethile, kwaye waphantse walila. Uthethile nomqeqeshi wakhe. Wangenelela umqeqeshi. Ushiye ibala lokudlala, washiya ibala, wabuya emva kwethutyana.
Ngokucacileyo, okwangoku, ndinexhala kakhulu ngento engalunganga kuye. Oyena mntu ubalaseleyo ngalo lonke ixesha kunokwenzeka ukuba aphumelele enye imbasa yegolide yobuqu, njengoko wenzayo eRio, kunye nezinye iimedali zegolide kamva kumdlalo. USimone Byers ubuyile. Kodwa ngalo mzuzu, wanxiba ijezi, iyunifomu yeqela kunye nemask. Kwakucacile kwimizuzu nje embalwa, uNoel, ukuba akazukuthatha inxaxheba kumdlalo. Ke obambeleyo uthathe indawo yakhe kolunye ujikelezo olusaqhubekekayo kumdlalo.
UKUMKANI: Bendicinga ngento onokuyibona xa ulapho, into endiza kuyibona kumabonwakude, kwaye leyo-unemisebenzi yeqela, ke iqela lihlangene. Uyayibona inkangeleko yobuso bamanye amabhinqa aselula? Ngaba basabela koko kwenzekileyo?
UBrennan: Hayi, ngokuqinisekileyo. Kwakothusa xa kwakuqala ukwenzeka, ixhala lokwenene. Ndiyathetha, basondele, ngokucacileyo. Baziqeqesha kunye iinyanga, iminyaka. Ngoku lixesha. Le yiOlimpiki. Ukusukela kunyaka ophelileyo wamiswa ngenxa yobhubhane, ayisiyiyo nje iminyaka emine, kodwa yiminyaka emihlanu. Ewe ewe, ukhathazeke kakhulu ngaye, kwaye bonke abo bakhuphisana nabo banomdla kakhulu kuye. Ngokucacileyo, ibala ngokwalo alinanto, akukho balandeli-kodwa bothukile. Ndiyathetha, ndicinga ukuba iOlimpiki iyonke ngokungathi ime ngalo mzuzu. I-Simone Biles, elona nani laziwayo kwi-Olimpiki, engama-24 ubudala, zezona ndaba zimbi kwezemidlalo kwi-Olimpiki, enyanisweni, izama ukufumana indawo kulo bhubhane nakulo lonke uthintelo, iibhlokhi kunye nokuvalelwa yedwa Qhubeka apha. Ewe ewe, ngokuqinisekileyo inemvakalelo, inzima, iyothusa-phantse naziphi na iindaba eziphambili malunga nemidlalo onokucinga ngayo. Yile nto siyibonileyo apha ngokuhlwanje.
UKUMKANI: Ithetha ukuthini le nto kwiqela lonke laseMelika? Ngaba ikhona into yokubambela ukugcwalisa ixesha elishiyekileyo leeSimone Biles?
UBrennan: Akukacaci ukuba uNoel noSimon Byers bangaqhubeka nokuthatha inxaxheba kumntu ojikeleze okanye izixhobo zokugqibela. Umbutho waseMelika weGymnastics uthe uyakuvavanywa yonke imihla ukumisela inqanaba lokuphumelela kwakhe kwezonyango kukhuphiswano. Yile nto siyaziyo ngoku.
Kumkani: Kulungile. UChristine Brennan kunye ne-USA Today, benika ingxelo evela eTokyo. Ndiyabulela kakhulu ngexesha lakho, uChristine.
