In order to keep multiple and similar threads from popping up, lets try to post thoughts, rants, and everything under the sun in here.

P.S. Schmuck sent me a text and he's wearing the Oakley North Carolina Blue jacket so if you see him, yell to all your friends you know that guy from the internet!

Good Luck to all the athletes and media representing tonight on E-S-P-N!

Saying Tanner didn't deserve that gold is like saying... I can't think of anything else that dumb. Sorry.

The only person who got jipped in this was Andreas, and the only reason for that was because X wants two things, big spins and big amplitude. Tanner did more with that pipe and he deserved the win. You can't JUST go big, you need something more.

Judging was weak for Andreas and Jossi, but just like last year, Simons amplitude, doesn't beat Tanners tech, style and amount of hits.

from how the night started out it looked like nobody could touch tanner. It was nice to see simon throw down and make this one a nail biter.

I agree with Simon getting second, he needs to spin both ways and it would easily be a first place run.

Tanner should have one. Andreas and Jossi should have gotten higher.  Simon should have gotten second.  Tanner spun both ways and had more grabs than Simon.  I don't know. That is how I see it,and I feel that anyone who bood Tanner should quit skiing cause you are gay.
