No love loss for Miss Vonn, especially for stooping down to Tiger Woods level. Having said that the only two hours of Olympic coverage I have watched was at my 89 year old Fathers house last night, I didn’t have much choice. Vonn was in no way crying because she lost the Gold medal, she was never in first place. Actually she was pretty happy when she crossed the finish line to see she was in 2nd place. Just emotional that essentially her career was now over.
As for being savaged on Social media, did someone put a gun to her head to read it? But she did, so if she is so righteous it should have just rolled off her back. Nope.

At least Tiger Woods did play golf with Trump.

Today’s American athletes don’t perform well against the world.
Not schocked.

Since he mentioned Republicans, we know that he doesn’t like them...gaslighting snarky bastard! If he had said folks of both parties “buy sneakers” then I would have been okay with his statement!

Good. Pres. Trump invites winners, so he’s off the hook and she can’t turn it down.
Things work out.

Dear Miss Vonn...maybe you can quit tearing down my President while you are ranting about trolls. Lead by example.
To: Red Badger
Typical of our time, and of any time in grade school, the headline is about how the most "popular" athlete missed out, instead of how the real winner (it was me, the nerd in those days) won.

She’s 33, has no husband or kids. Training has consumed her life. Time to pack it in, and get a real life. Pass on those athletic genes to some kids.

“What Ive noticed most about athletes like Vonn and Adam Rippon”
Your post exactly expresses my thoughts.
To: kiltie65
Exactly.
Also to Ms. Vonn in the future:
Don’t start none, won’t be none.

I’m sorry to hear that she won a bronze.
I was hoping for a last place finish. Well, a little bit of Tiger in her tank should cheer her up.
