    Re: Winter Olympics

    ok Lindsey Vonn tried her best in what is apparently her last Olympic appearance and got Bronze. she raced (and cried) her heart out and we're proud of her! we also got Gold last night for Women's Cross-Country ski so that bumps us up to 5th place w/ 16 total medals so far. go USA!

    totally! she barely go air (if at all) and no tricks/stunts besides a very weak 180 on her 6th slide up the half-pipe on her 1st run. there's a really long story/profile on her today here: https://sports.yahoo.com/liz-swaney-...012747577.html i've read half of it so far. they interview her dad and close friends. she tried out in a dozen different sports before switching to skiing, tried out for professional cheerleading for the Raiders, etc. u would think that she is a modern day Rudy Ruettiger (tries really hard, has heart, but not talented enough) until i read the part that she tried out to be a contestant on "Worst Cooks in America" so something seems to be seeking attention IMO. she still seems really positive despite all the criticism tho.

    Honestly, it's the one thing this Olympics I've legit been looking forward to
    Go USA Women's Hockey!

    that get's annoying in actual gameplay. it's ok in (some) replays.
    RIP Mamba
