i saw that interview too. he opined about how strong he was about who he was and how he liked to stick it to the man, especially conservatives. at the time i thought he was trying to convince himself. he protested too much i thought. and then he tanked at the games. no grace no heart of a champion like Mr. Davis the winner of the men's 1,000. Davis had an interview last night where he was humble, proud to be there, proud to represent he's country. Davis showed grace and made it look like he'd been there before. Great role model for the kids he coaches.

I agree with you about Davis. He had a disagreement with Hedrick on his team, but they all seemed to respect each other's decisions. All the speed skaters were great.

I was very impressed with the US woman that fell on the downhill going over 50mph and got out there and competed two days later. I was not impressed with the US woman that did the victory grab with her snowboard before the victory.

Frankly, I am tired about hearing about Apollo and the Koreans. Also, too much attention to Bode Miller.
