Blog covering the 2006 winter olympics.
The official Olympic site has put up a video of Shaun White’s Turin snowboarding with sound and slow motion effects. It’s pretty interesting, so if you’re a fan, you might want to head over there and take a look.
We now have much better spam protection set up, so we have turned comments back on.
A quick note for the regular readers of this blog. We had to turn off comments on this blog, because we are getting pounded with SPAM comments. We are investigating the best procedure for preventing SPAM comments in the future and will update this post once we turn comments back on.
Shaun White was named winner of the North American Snowsports Journalists Association (NASJA) annual Outstanding Competitor Award. While his Olympic medal figured into the award, the journalists also considered his performances in the Chevrolet U.S. Snowboard Grand Prix before the Olympics and the U.S. Open after the Olympics.
Michelle Kwan says she’s not completely ready to close the door on competitive skating. I don’t know what the means exactly. Would she try for another Olympics? Next year’s World Championships? I’d love to see her continue to compete, but I hope she continues to show the restraint she showed in [...]
16 year old Kimmie Meissner may have finished 6th at the Olympics, but she did considerably better than that at Worlds, outskating Fumie Suguri and Sasha Cohen to win the gold and $45,000. Meissner was the only skater in the contest to land two triple-triple jump combos. Sasha Cohen was considered the favorite but had [...]

You can catch up with what your favorite Olympic skaters, including Sasha Cohen, are doing by reading my recent post on the World Figure Skating Championships.
I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier, but I just didn’t. I should have covered the 2006 Turin Paralympics after the Olympics. I’m sure many of you would have been interested. To make up for my negligence, here’s a bit of a recap. The Russian Federation won the overall medal [...]
Russians are disappointed that their golden boy, Evgeny Plushenko, is leaving amateur skating at the tender age of 23. They had hoped he would continue to compete through at least the 2012 Vancouver Olympics. Plushenko was very upfront about why he is going pro, saying, “I’m tired of skating for the benefit of [...]
I just posted a new article about Hannah Teter over on Positive Sports News. Head over there to check out how Hannah is giving back to the community.
Shaun White and Hannah Teter are two of the Olympians competing at this weekend’s 24th U.S. Open Snowboarding Championships in Vermont. It is the longest running snowboarding championship. Shaun White may have Olympic gold, but he’s never won at this competition, so he’s really talked this up.
If you just can’t ever get enough of figure skating, you’ll have a chance to tune into ESPN March 20-26 to see the World Figure Skating Championships. There will be several familiar faces from the Olympics, including medal winners Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto, along with Sasha Cohen.
An Olympic snowboarder from Sweden was killed in a freak snowboarding accident today in the Adirondacks. Jonatan Johansson advanced to the quarterfinals in the snowboard cross in Turin and finished 12th, overall, at the Olympics.
Shaun White met the Olympian he most wanted to meet— Sasha Cohen— at a victory party for him last week. They hung out again at a post-Oscar party. But they’re just friends, so no one get any funny ideas.
Maybe Sasha Cohen and Chad Hedrick can make a movie together. Remember that movie “The Cutting Edge” about a hockey player and a figure skater who pair up for the Olympics? Maybe Sasha and Chad could do a remake? Except this time it would be a speed skater and a figure skater. Sasha [...]
Well, as those of you who have been around for a while may remember, I watched American Idol, instead of the Olympics. Now I’m blogging about American Idol. So, head on over to read updates, commentary, and any interesting tidbits I come across.
After winning a few more speedskating titles at the World Cup, Chad Hedrick announced that after the meet in Calgary towards the end of the month, he will take 6 months off to concentrate on pursuing his acting career. At least he’s going to take some lessons. If I were in his situation, [...]
I’m quoted about this blog on the front page of today’s Washington Post in an article about “Blog Buzz”. I think it’s a decent article. It’s kind of funny to be referred to as a “sports fanatic”, and my family laughed long and hard about that, as I’m very far from fanatical about [...]
