Yes he couldn’t speak sooner because he was so concerned about his teammates
Ya think?
He’s a closet gaywad looking for attention. Nobody dyes their damned hair blue/grey like that for no queer reason.
More intelligent
More mature
More responsible
Still blaming the evil security guard
No, you should not have “been more responsible” you SHOULD NOT HAVE LIED - especially on national TV while representing your country.
Say goodbye to any lucrative contracts you might have gotten.
And the answer is not to lie again, and say some hogwash about ‘responsibility’ - ADMIT YOU LIED.
Get on TV, apoligize you your cuntrymen for embarrasing them and apologize the the host country for lying. You can say it was a ‘fish tale’ that just kept growing in each re-telling but it was still just a tale and you’re embarrased you did it.
Weasel words are not going to make it better.
I’m sorry, if I’d encountered a security guard or a police officer who demanded I hand over cash to him in person, even if I had caused the damage it was supposedly reparations for, I’d call it a robbery.
OTOH, that may be a cultural thing, and having police assess and collect damages on the spot might be usual, in Brazil.
So what was he covering up with his lies...?
Ryan. No problem it only cost you millions of dollars.
The post-Hillary Era type of apology.
You were dishonest. You shamed us. (Lochte). No one minded you partying. Even messing up a bathroom, if you paid for it, can all be forgiven. But lying to the world and making your hosts suffer? For that you deserve to lose all the millions you have lost in endorsements.
1) I don’t trust Big Media. They are known liars and known to hate America.
2) I don’t trust the Brazilian government in particular, and third world governments in general. They are known to be corrupt, and dishonest, and hate America.
3) I don’t trust armed “security guards” in third-world hellholes. The distinction between them and armed robbers can be difficult to make.
4) I don’t trust video with huge gaps in it.
I still believe, and all evidence points this way, that the Brazilians are lying, and covering up a robbery, by a government employee. He apologizes to not ruin his career, and to end the persecution by the anti-(white) American mobs.
The fraud is still lying!
Is he related to crooked Hillary?
Smh???
Small minded human?
Even if a small fraction of a degree, perhaps this young man will be helpful in turning America around setting the right course for sailing. Though it did take some time to hear his words, these, at least were spoken giving hope that something good might be found in this incident.
Lochte’s apology is a non-apology.
Is there something in the Olympic rules about stripping medals from those athletes who engage in behavior unbecoming?
Who cares what our athletes do to get by in a third world hellhole. They never should have had the Olympics in a dump like Rio in the first place and I don’t believe a word of anything those crooked police have to say. Obama should have given that teapot dictator 30 minutes to put our boys back on the plane no questions asked.
