How on earth did having a couple of beers the evening before and
skipping inspection turn into "[s]taying out drinking until midnight


Have you actually *read* the article?

Yup. I was considering the source, too. Daily News, huh? Bastion of
journalistic integrity. Where'd they get that 9:45 time -- were they in
his trailer with you? And what's your objection to someone getting up
at 9:45, anyway? It's not like they hadn't had plenty of chances to
look at the course already -- it's their call, not yours.

I hope he does well in today's combined.

Suuure you do. Me, I think he's gonna do just fine despite your "good
wishes".

I want to see an American win
and he's probably our best hope. But if he's going to take the combined
as seriously as he did the DH, he will likely not make the podium.
Especially when you consider he's competing in a field of world class
athletes that *are* exercising the level of discipline demanded by
Olympic competition.

Chuck, given that you've got such an amazing ability to determine what's
going on in other people's heads -- people you've never met and whom you
know only from what's reported about them in tabloids -- why don't you
turn your awesome abilities towards a project whose scope is more worthy
of your talents, like world peace or something? You're wasted on a
drunken bum like Bode Miller, really.


Never said I knew what was going on in his head. Where do you get all
the straw for these strawman argmuments anyway? Do you own a horse farm
or something?

Never said he as a drunken bum either. More straw. If I did would you
please quote it for me? If not quit putting words in my mouth. All I
said is according to the eyewitnesses who *are* there (reuters reporter
cited in the article) he as out drinking till midnight the night before
a race. Were you there? Can you authoritatively challenge an eyewitness?
Didn't think so. He certainly did not exercise the level of discipline
that an Olympic athlete who seriously expects to win a race should have.

Mary, that you worship the ground this guy walks on is apparent. You get
hyper defensive every time his name is mentioned. That's your choice. My
choice is to point out the obvious.
