Awful news to read about one of our best female skiers, my prayers go out to her for a complete recovery and return to the World Cup circuit.

For the life of me I can't understand the jokes being made at her expense on this thread, they are uncalled for. Just further evidence on how far this site has devolved in terms of tolerance for this crap over the past 13 years...........

With that being said, are there any true ski racing enthusiasts reading this thread? If so, remember Bill Johnson, the downhill gold medal winner in the 1984 olympics? Here's an informative article on the tragedies he's endured since that gold medal day.....

Bill Johnson today

thanks for link. I agree those jokes are uncalled for. She is seriously injured and it will take some time for her recovery, she may not be able to be in the 2014 Olympics for this country.
