Bode is asking his countrymen and women to get their collective heads out of their asses and start
recognizing the talent that the US Ski Team possesses and how wonderful a sport ski racing is. We
need more coverage here. But, that will never happen because we are set in our ways. Bode, we feel
your pain man.

Marty,
May I feel your pain, too? Is it a big pain? Does it throb? I know of something that I can wrap
around that pain to help soothe it. Let me know if you would like that.

Actually, I thought it was on-topic. Change the names and a few details of the sport, and you could
be talking about bike-racing.
