Re-aggravated her groin injury. I always enjoyed watching her. Graceful. Nice bod.

Anyone even watches the Winter Olympics? I tried to, but ended up changing back to ESPN. The Pro bowl skills competition was good to watch..Marcus Allen still had some moves left in him..

Only cause it's in my old country, otherwise I usually don't care much for it. I prefer summer olympics (and I think now that football is growing, it should be an event, Rugby too, if it's not already)

I just watch to see if I can spot family there, I know my cousins are there to watch.

Summer Olympics for sure over the winter games. Winter games are pretty cool though..........
Michelle Kwan was all over ESPN radio today, every show. Alot of folks blasted her, some crap about the only reason she was at the olympics was because of her past performances, TV ratings, and the sponsership bazaar attatched to her and her name.
I personally thinks she's very athletic and cuter than a button. I tell you this much, my viewership of these olympics would be much higher with her in it.

anything more boring than watching women's 1/2 pipe?
they should have shown the women before men to make it seem more interesting.

Is it just me or does Michelle Kwan look exactly like Jasmine Trias?
Oh and sorry I love Michelle Kwan, but Kristy Yamaguchi is the hottest figure skater ever!

Kind of but I wouldn't say exactly. I think its the nose that makes them look similar though.

BTW, I'd vote for Michelle Kwan partly because she reminds me a little of a certain Sports Angel. :-
