As a whole, Steamboat athletes had a great week, and they skied well. Everyone competed at their highest level.

All of the Steamboat athletes moved up from their start positions in both the downhill and super-G.

Steamboat's strength is not downhill, for lack of experience, but our athletes skied very well in the event. All of the Steamboat athletes moved up from their start position in both the downhill and super G. Now that the speed portion of the event is over, we are focusing on the (technical) events, where Steamboat is much stronger.

It seems that all the hard work these athletes have put into their season is paying off, and everyone is skiing at the top of their game when it counts the most.

When I look at all these professional athletes when they are 50 or 45 years old, they have knees that don't work at all, shoulders that don't work, back problems, and I think that that's a much more common occurrence than a guy who is 40 or 50 who has serious problems because of some steroid he was taking when he was 20.

Try not to laugh when someone says these are the world's greatest athletes, despite a paucity of blacks that makes the games look like a GOP convention.
