Eileen Gu is competing as a Chinese athlete at an Olympics hosted by China. I have not (yet) heard a single American Olympian offer a word of protest regarding atrocities committed by the CCP, treatment of Peng Shuai or anything that would embarrass the Chinese government. So why would we expect Gu to do anything different?

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
