Man, what a bummer for Lindsey. Just saw an interview with her and Tanja on the news. Too bad. Maybe next time.

i think to riders shell be popular but to news folks and regular people shell go out as a "showboater" which is gay. if she was showboating shed go for a 3 or something. she was having fun with it and she says it was helping her make the jump all day.

Saw it all go down on TV last night, and I can't believe how bad she was roasted by the media. Let it go, folks! The first rule of racing: DON'T LOOK BACK! She did look back over the roller before the infamous jump, which threw off of her line. The method wasn't waht did it. Look at her flight path, she drifted too far to her left. Probably got a little cross-rutted off of the lip. It happens.

I'm a little curious to see how this all pans out. It was being treated like she was a disgrace to America. I don't agree. Sure, you can say that she had the Gold medal in the bag, but hey, she was the only American to medal yesterday. Shame on those ice dancers and slalom racers!

The media doesn't understand how to all of us, snowboarding is fun. It's not all about contests and gold medals. And yes, it was a good looking method that I'm sure felt wonderful.

Disclaimer: I'm not even a tiny bit as good as Lindsey. Well...I suck. But damn, that was still a prematurely overzealous move on her part. And at least be humble enough to admit that you were trying to showboat afterwards. Too much pride, not enough humility.
