I am so banned I can’t even downvote things, but wow it never fails to entertain

Supposedly, Landi is now the head coach of Mexico. The absolute toddler-level tantrum being thrown on Reddit by a certain someone because people are replying with "so, you have no evidence and just want us to believe you heard it from 'someone trusted'?" is definitely A Thing.

Even if she is right, she just doesn't get that her self-righteousness and obnoxious personality makes everyone hate her.

ETA: if she is right, I presume this is like a lot of other "head coach" jobs where some big name US-based coach shows up a handful of times a year at training camps and nationals rather than relocating to a new country on a day-to-day basis.

Literally cannot with her. She is so condescending.

Well, hope it works for Mexico. They are right on the cusp. A little more depth, a little more consistency and I think they can get top 12, maybe even getting into the team finals.

Especially since they have Michelle Pineda now who gives them a strong AA as well as stable bars and beam.
Mexico was 5th on vault at 2023 Worlds, 13th on bars, and 15th on floor, but just 20th on beam, which ultimately cost them a full team to Paris. 2.669 away from qualification, and that is with counting an 11.1 beam score.

As long as the World team continues and Pineda joins them, they should be in the hunt for qualifying a full team to LA.
