      They were mentioned in an interview. People say things they shouldnt all the time.

      Conspiracy theories are the best way to make yourself look silly.

        Confidential eh?

        Do you know that conspiracy means: a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful

        If she’s not of issue and they’re keeping the results secret/confidential, that’s a valid conspiracy theory.

          It’s silly to out of all possible options to what has happened, to take exactly the one you can use for your rallying cry.

          Not to mention no one is saying this, she isn’t, her coach isn’t, not even the media is. Nobody that matters. Only some online warriors.

          I’m done. This is not worth my time. If you want to believe go ahead, but you know what they say: nobody believes only one conspiracy theory. Bye.
