Man, when I raced slalom, the poles moved you, not the other way around ... they can ski such a clean line now, no wonder the elapsed times have improved so much over the years ... there's not a lot of turning in slalom anymore.

Lindsey fell in the Slalom of the Super Combined ... at least Julia got another medal.

Wow ... really thought Gretchen would make it to the podium ... beginner's mistake, too. Still one of the best women snowboarders alive.

The same screen comparison of two skiers at the same pace is pretty amazing.  It makes it look like a race.

Yeah ... I think it's called "ghosting" or something similar ... pretty amazing technology ... here goes Apolo! Guy makes his sport look so easy!

Korean short-track skaters always running their mouths ... persecution complex. ;)

Wow ... can't believe Davis came in second, after setting a new world record ... huge upset.

Really fired up for US-Canada in hockey tonight.  Didn't realize that the US hasn't beaten Canada in the Olympics in 50 years.  Its about time that changed, isn't it?   ;)

Ski-cross today too.  I have a definite interest in what this is gonna look like.  I loved snowboard-cross.

Yeah I can't wait for USA-Canada tonight either. 

I wish it was on NBC Primetime though but none the less it will be fun.

I have a signed, framed Jim Craig poster of him after the Gold Medal game with an American flag looking for his dad.  He signed it to me with the annotation "Always believe in miracles".

Pretty cool stuff.
