Brinn Bevan seems to have almost the same background as Tom Daley: very close bond with his father who died of cancer, and now he's trying to win an Olympic medal for daddy. And Tom Daley turned out to be gay, so…

Speaking of the Russian team, I remember when they uses to kiss each other on the cheek or even right on the mouth after they did their routines.

That's was cute. It's too bad that tradition was done away with.

It was a major blow to US gays today. : (

Only [bold]Flop[/bold]rozco made it to the Olympics.

Danell Leiva, Paul Ruggeri, and Eddie Penev were left out. What's our verdict on Jake Dalton? He could be family?

John Orozco and Danell Leyva ping to high heavens. Jake Dalton pings too, but he's a married Bible thumper, so if he's gay, it seems they bearded him off young. Actually a lot of them seem to have married young. Is bearding in gymnastics a thing?

Paul gave us another memory from P-town fourth. Here, a shirtless Paul is starstruck after spotting Gilmore Girls actor Yanic Truesdale in a sea of sweaty, fit men. Maybe Yanic can get Paul into television when he ages out of gymnastics.

R258, by snapchatting (yesterday) his day by the pool, alone, with his half naked boyfriend. They have a few other subtle IG pictures of them, out together. If you check the photos that they're tagged in on IG, Arthur and Andre have liked photos with captions specifically mentioning their relationship. And Arthur has liked Loddi's last few half naked pictures, one with a substantial VPL. And Arthur's pretty queeny on snapchat/IG stories in general, perpetually acting as the gbf with his female "crushes", so this isn't coming as a surprise IMO.

It's nice to see that Paul Ruggeri's out and about. Eddie Penev's gay. I don't know how open he is about it, but he's not going out if his way to hide it. He follows a lot of gay Instahos. I think he's cute, and yeah, he's quite the jet setter. Gymnasts get to travel a lot. I bet he's had tons of fun.

I'm in love with Jake Dalton. He's so earnest and wholesome, and honestly, I feel no vanity from him whatsoever. He's beautiful, and I'm sure he's aware of it, but I never feel like he's flaunting it. I was sad when they moved. He left his really good friend Steven Legendre. They've gone through so much together in college and at different gymnastics competitions. But it's nice that he's out west. He's closer to his family and will be taking over their gymnastics gym, so he's moving into that next stage of a gymnast's life.

I wonder how many more competitions Jake has in him. He doesn't do all around and specializes in floor and vault, but is he aiming for Tokyo? It seems like this class of gymnasts are about to graduate and a new class are going to come in. Akash Modi and Yul Moldauer look like the new bloods. Danell Leyva seems pretty interested in acting. I know Sam Mikulak's still going strong after his injury, so I'm thinking he's shooting for 2020. I'll be sad if Jake doesn't go to Tokyo though. I really want him to be an Olympic medalist.

Sorry if that was rambling. I'm high and I love gymnastics. Here's a picture of Jay Thompson:

Sam Mikulak isn't gay. But he does have the skills, difficulty and execution to medal in Tokyo in the All Around and a couple events if he actually hits. He's got the skills, but unfortunately he's a bit of a headcase. So many times he's been so close to medaling, only to botch a routine. He did finally get a medal last year at Worlds in Horizontal Bar (bronze). Maybe that will inspire him to hit when it counts? I'm curious to see how he does at Worlds in a couple weeks.
