Dear Staff,
I am conducting a letter of apology to you all in regards to the inappropriatecomment that I made about another skater via Facebook. I want to first apologizefor inconveniencing everybody over such a low class act of behavior presented byme. I also want to apologize for embarrassing both US Speedskating and myself bydoing so. To be honest, I've been suffering from having to balance my financialpredicament and my training schedule. I've had a very successful skating season,but it's been harder than ever for me to make ends meet and I've been having avery difficult time coming to grips with that. Though that is no excuse for my
juvenile behavior, I admit that my adversity has hindered my stress and emotionallevels. I am not homophobic and I shortly realized that what I wrote was cruel so Ideleted my post an hour later. Unfortunately, I didn't act on my regret fast enough.
Again, I am deeply sorry for my petty action and I understand better than ever howmy actions can affect an entire organization. I am prepared for whateverpunishment is necessary as a result of my actions. I've learned from this experienceand I assure you that I won't fail to act like a world class athlete in the future.Thank you for taking the time to hear me out. Have a nice day.

Dear______
,
Simon Cho, here. I just wanted to apologize for what I wrote about you onFacebook. It was uncalled for and what goes on in your personal life is none of mybusiness. I do not by any means think that you are a homosexual nor am I ahomophobic. We are out chasing our own different dreams and it was wrong of meto disrespect yours. I have learned to stay on my side of the field and not look at orinterfere with anyone else's so I assure that I won't repeat a mistake like this to youor anybody else. Again, I'm sorry for causing you emotional pain. I was being a bullyand that will be the end of that. Good luck in California.
-Simon Cho
