Emotional Moment: Steve Named Flag Bearer for Team, Nicki Overwhelmed with Gratitude and Determination for Gold

Another first for this team
is that Steve is going to be the flag bearer for this year.
Wow.
You guys did
good.
Hey, don’t get it dirty. Don’t get it dirty.
Has a. Has a.
Look with that. With the leg, right?
That’s exactly what it should look like.
Nicki, you are our flag bearer.
I’m gonna cry.
I can’t cry about my makeup.
Look up. Look up there.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh.
I wanna say thank you guys,
cause it’s been a hard, long journey, um,
literally coming from Tokyo until now.
And, um.
Yeah, like,
when I rep this flag, it’s,
you know, for our country stuff,
but mostly you guys, because you’ve held my hand and you’ve kept me.
And I’m ready to rock and roll and go home with another gold.
So, yeah.
