Perhaps Kramer and Kempers can find solace by talking to Lindsey Jacobellis, the American snowboard-cross racer who flung away victory by showboating toward the end of her event four years ago.

I don't think that's comparable. I really dislike showboating athletes who try to do an "In your face!" when they think they've won. Kramer didn't do anything like that. He made a mistake, his coach made a mistake. It happens.

And then when she screwed up this year, she said in the interview, “Well, I do events all year long on the tour, it’s not just about this (OLYMPIC!) event...”

Diva b*tch.
