Shiffrin gets her 98th world cup win with slalom victory. Sets her up to potentially get her 100th win here at Beaver Creek in a couple of weeks. Pretty cool to see her do it at one of her local mountains.

Hi Tom, congrats on the Eagles SB win. They proved all year long to be the most consistently best team in the league and deservedly won the Lombardi trophy in dominant fashion. Anyway, it's your board and you certainly can post anything you wish. But what is up with the Mikaela Shiffrin posts? Is she family?

Well, that week I spent with her in Ibiza is locked forever in my memories. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

I've always enjoyed watching her ski. @johnmpsu often posts about her victories (and there have been a lot of them). So, I thought it made the most sense to have annual threads about her, and we've done that for the past 3 or more years (I can't recall when they started).

fwiw I thought I saw on the screen today that after her last fall she has PTSD from it, and may not being competing any longer.

scroll up to the post I made at 1:45 today, and read the linked article. She has PTSD from the fall, but she is competing this week -- just not in all the events she was planning to.
