    Article from the Vail Daily. Paula Moltzan had a nice 5th place finish too. PS Send us some snow we could really use it. The east coast and now the mid-west is getting it all. Worst snow pack ever this year...

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    I'm 74 about to turn 75. Is that old enough? I'm so old lifetime guarantees don't impress me. I grew up with the Yankees. I remember Mel Allen doing the games. I thought Red Barber was terrible. My favorite broadcast team was Rizzuto, White and Messer.

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

Almost forgot Alan Keyes was there too. - Met Yogi Berra at his Bowling alley when I was a kid. His son went to my HS for a year. - Met Ted Ligety at the after party the day he won...

    LOL Seriously you think he made a racist comment. I don't think so.

    I'm not trying to make him John Wooden. I'm just saying that the program would be in better shape if he was still the coach. Changing coaches every few years doesn't send a signal of stability. Sometimes continuity matters.

    Yes and the guy who made the pass to him on the winning goal. That pass made the play. Bravo!

    They never should have fired Chambers. He had things improving slowly but improving. On top of that his teams always played hard even when they were clearly outclassed in talent. Occasionally beating a team they had no business beating. No matter what when you tuned in you knew you were...

    Penn State Men's Basketball.....

    They never should have fired Chambers. Progress was slow but it was steady and his teams always played hard. That being said this team is very young. However I often feel they lack effort on defense and rebounding. Where would they be if Niederhauser had stayed?

    The guy I'm talking about doesn't seem to know a thing about skiing. Some of the stuff he says is just plain nuts. It's weird how they never give there names. I'm watching on peacock where they show the whole event. He did the women's super G that I watched tonight. Someone must have talked...

    The guy announcing the alpine skiing events is just plain awful. He's terrible. I manage to ignore him but when I don't he's worse than terrible.

    Olympic failure???? Really. She has 2 gold medals and a silver medal. That's not failure. On top of that she's the greatest skier of all time man or woman and it's not even close. She has won 7 out of 8 slalom FIS races this season. The word failure shouldn't be used within a million miles...
