    Stephen Nedoroscik had just one job for Team USA’s men’s gymnastics team: The pommel horse. That’s it. That was the only thing he had to do during these Games.

    Sounds pretty simple, right? I mean, it’s just one thing. Just come in and do some swings on the horse and you’re done! Easy.

    But it’s not that simple at all.

    Think about how things go for, say, NFL kickers. Or closing pitchers in the NFL. If that kick glides just slightly to the left, you’re cooked. If that curveball gets away from you just a bit, you’re done. The ball is going yard.

    Now think about what Nedoroscik had riding on this. He didn’t need to just complete his routine on the horse — he needed to nail it. The men’s U.S. gymnastics team had a whole medal riding on this. The team’s first medal in 16 years.

    And guess what he did? Nailed it. LOOK AT MY BOY. He took those glasses off and turned into Superman.

    He nailed it. This is so clutch. What a performance. This guy will go down in Team USA’s history books.
