WOW!
As usual, She was so much smoother on that run than everyone else.

Amazing what a single laser focus from age 4 will do. Damn fantastic.
What a crusher. She's really is the best damn skier on the mountain.
What a spectacular creature of snow. I'm not worthy, my Lord.:yourock::angel:
Cha-ching
So sik
Amazing Shiffrin! Attacked that upper section, rather that skidding around those turns as she did in her first run. What a second run. And, the focus to correct her mistakes. She looked the smoothest up there, and prolly would've won by more except for her little hiccup at the bottom. Probably saw the finish line and forgot everything else.
Began sobbing when she realized she'd won gold. What relief from the pressure.
Congrats and best to her. The payoff for her hard work. Slalom tomorrow!
Bode has great insights, awesome having his commentary. But his voice is monotone and the bosses must have been pissed at him for making the comment about Veith's marriage. Kinda funny that bad boy don't give a fuck has to apologize on air for expressing his (probably correct) opinion.
Mikaela is a boss, best fucking skier. She also has a little lisp in her interviews. Her instagram and fb (not that I'm a stalker or anything...) is totally sold out though, kinda bugs me. I guess she should sell out now while she's all the rage, but I feel like it takes away from the girl next door appeal. I also feel like her finish line collapse and tears was rehearsed. Like she knew the 2nd best GS skier in the world at the biggest event of the past 4 years would still finish .4 seconds behind her or whatever it was. Couple little bobbles at the end of the run, but she's so much smoother, faster, stronger, better than everyone else. She can't honestly be surprised when she wins? I mean, that's why they play the game, but we all knew she would crush!
(except for my post a couple weeks ago where I questioned if she was falling apart)
That may seem negative, so the take home message is she's a bad ass motherfucker. And hot.
Let me edit out the misguided statements in the above post.

sick run
Bode is capable of delivering a joke in perfect deadpan. Some of his audience is not capable of hearing one. Their loss, as his commentary has been so good that I can't think of anyone else in skiing to compare it to.
MS's emotional release after was the price she pays for staying that sharply focused for so long. Hope she can keep the focus without exhaustion now that this one's out of the way. But she's a bad, bad power-napper and knows how to duck media. I believe.
Do Olympic races count towards world cup wins?
Bar down: when 1% in fitness and health make the difference in your sport, you save your legs anyway you can.
Why stand when you can sit. why sit when you can lay down. if you can lay down, sleep. I'd be taking naps in the gondola.
