Those keeping score will recall the several times Ms. Vonn was highlighted on FR. Most notably, when she said "Well I hope to represent the people of the United States, not the president."

Shortly thereafter, she wiped out with a back problem on the slopes, spawning all sorts of pics...

And what was the name of the Super Bowl team that wasn’t going to go to the White House to meet President Trump if they won?

I can’t remember those losers names either.

[Guenevere]

I mean, that’s how it happened!

Folks trash Trump....say they won’t show up at the White House blah blah

.....then ooops....they lose bigtime

[originalbuckeye]

Because of twits like Vonn and her politics, most snow sports people are moving to the more ‘exciting’ area of the slopes. I really like the ‘Red’ kid (sorry cannot remember his last name). Until he comes out with immature political statements, I’m watching him!

A cute blond chick who could ski decided she was AOC before there was an AOC.

Now a washed up has-been.

Time and history will not be kind to you...

Disagreeing with Trump on policy is one thing.

Lashing out at him publicly, cheaply and virtue-signally just because you can is a sign of being steeped in negativity and of being not a very rational person.

Negative and irrational people generally soon have something bad happen to them.

So the curse I think appears true, is not an illusion ... but the lashing out and the negative life events surrounding the lashing are both just symptoms that one's heart and head are experiencing a period, perhaps terminal, of rot.

Now the Schiffren era starts.

King James is injured too.

Some PLEASE post the Trump-Golf gif, I can’t find it!

So: the underlying issue is funding. Athletes in U.S. amateur sports are lavishly funded through college and then fall off a financial cliff. How do other countries do it? Do the top countries in any given sport typically get large government subsidies?

I won't join the hatefest on Lindsay. She has been a great representative of the United States on the ski team in World Cup and the Olympics. She is retiring as the best US woman ski racer ever and maybe the best US racer overall.

She's not political and I think people read way to much into a very brief statement, including the media who love to diss on Trump.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Now if we can get of the MFL and NBA thugs to quit their professional sports gigs because of President Trump, that would be some awesome winning. Maybe they could show more hockey games on TV.

[tennmountainman]

Good riddance to her.
Maybe she will move to Iraq.

[irishjuggler]

Isn’t she the gal who had a thing for Tigers Wood?

[grey_whiskers]

Wasn’t she the one who took up with the human Petri dish, Tiger Woods?

The US can't hold a candle to the Europeans in alpine skiing. We've never fielded a soccer team that's world class. And without Lance Armstrong, USA cycling is a continental effort at best.

There are just some things the Euros beat us at, hands down.

Oh well ...

[SendShaqtoIraq]

good riddance. i rooted AGAINST her in the last olympics

[Rummyfan]

We still have Michaela Schriffin and she’s even better.

[Chode]

oh God... i just know Trumps gonna tweet about this!

[BTerclinger]

I feel cheated, I thought for sure we could get some video of her slamming into a tree.
