It's about time one of the other U.S. skiiers spoke out about Bode Miller.  This guy irkes me, and I'm sure I'm not helping things by continuing to give him coverage, but I just have to get it off my chest.

 

Bode Miller needs to take the olympics more seriously, and he needs to take his sport more seriously as well.

If he doesn't really care about it, then he shouldn't make a living off of it.  Take a vacation and hit the slopes, and you can drink yourself silly.  But don't make a living off of it.  That's just offense.

 

That's why I'm so pleased with fellow U.S. skiier Daron Rahlves, who is also fed up with Bode.

 

"For him to go out and party, that's nothing new. He does that all the time," Rahlves told the Reno Gazette-Journal.  "He doesn't just do it at the Olympics, he does it all year."

 

And my favorite:  "I have way more than Bode has as far as a life, I think. He just goes around trying to look for girls all the time. That's his biggest thing."

Re: Bode's Teammate Gives Criticism
S'funny how he acted like he did'nt care how anyone thought about his antics is'nt it? I think that soon enough he'll learn that people don't care much about him anymore, period. He's had his 15 minutes of fame. I sure hope that all the money from endorsements he accepted ( and probably spent) dries up when his sponsors dump him. In the years to come, just imagine how proud he will be of his own legacy - they'll be looking back someday at notorious Olympic screw ups and there he'll be. The annoying thing is that his spot on the team could have gone to one far more deserving.

Re: Bode's Teammate Gives Criticism
It was really amazing to me when on a press conference after he didn't win any medals he told how it wasn't about winning but having a lifestyle.  I thought about all the money from donations and endorsements had been spent in sending him to the olympics to represent the US and he says "its not about winning".  I could also visualizing as he said that about all the potential sponsors slowly backing away from him

 

talk about an idiot.  and an ungrateful one at that!

 

there, I feel better......

Maybe he can do commercials for a beer company.

Yeah, I  watched all of the olypics and everytime I saw his he acted as though he didn't give a rip. He could have achieved a lot by actually trying. He doesn't set a good example for others though.
