Simone Biles on being called the G.O.A.T.: “I think it’s funny to play off, obviously all of my fans and people have embraced, loved and supported me throughout my journey. So it’s like it makes people happy and then it just pisses people off.”

I don’t know enough to say she is the goat or not… But since I’ve been paying attention, she’s been the best.
Yay Simone. You showed us all.
I honestly can’t appreciate anything that Jimmy Fallon says or do. He has the charisma of a… goat.
Simone Biles, meanwhile, really is wholesome and a genuine G.O.A.T.
I thought Jimmy was saying he didn’t know what GOAT meant until recently. But LL’s album GOAT came out 24 years ago.
She is the most well known female gymnast outside of Retton.
#GOAT
If she’s not the 🐐, then who is? Honestly, I’d love to see some clips of anyone doing it better than her.
In a world where Korbut and Comaneci don’t exist, maybe.
She’s only fantastic. Can’t for the life of me understand why some people hate her.
Sis is SNATCHED. She looks incredible. Icon.
She wore than necklace during the Olympics as well. We live in an age when being a braggart is rewarded. Wearing a self-designed diamond pendant like this is right up there with Drumph and Hawktau girl with their antics.
At least when Ali did it, it was part of the sport and he was willing to go to jail and give up his career for a cause.
As for Jimmy Fallon, no idea who he is supposed to appeal to.
The way that Michael Phelps could swim. The way Usain Bolt ran. They were great and you could just watch them one time and know that without any knowledge of the sport or anything else. When Simone Biles jumps up in the air, she gets so high and does some wild twists and shit, you know watching her she’s one of a kind.
“pisses people off” – well yeah she’s the first GOAT to call themselves GOAT so yeah that’s going to come across as weird to people. I want to see Jerry Rice go “bahhhhhhhhh” and Brady vs Phelps bash heads.
I’m not going to put Gretzky in here because the Quebecians will come for me again.
It’s not hyperbole though – in her sport, she is the GOAT.
And besides that, she seems like a sweetheart.
I think it’s possible to be an enormous admirer of hers and still think the goat pendant is a bit of a classless statement.
