beers few
I had dinner. Then I had a few beers with friends and went home.
nine
I'm not very sentimental about anything. I haven't been back here in nine years.
battle downhill finished good half people
I've straddled probably more times than most people have finished slalom. It's a drag, but the downhill was good and I made it to the finish. That's at least half the battle for me.
front people watch
People in the U.S. will watch anything if it's put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what's possible, more than anything.
cup hill
This hill is not as challenging as a World Cup hill but they could set it difficult, really difficult.
couple difference fifth hurricane spots taken wind
There were just a couple of spots where I got a little out of balance. That's the difference between being fifth and being second. Obviously, it would have taken a hurricane wind to get first today. He was pretty much in control.
chance coming great ski
I've not had a great slalom all year, but I feel the slalom is coming together. I know I can ski well on the downhill, so I have a chance in the combined.
change happens less
Obviously, the less change that happens all at once on the team, personnel-wise, is probably better for the team.
changed job kid needed pay ski somewhere travel warm weather
Nothing's changed about me. It's no different than when I was a kid and I wanted to ski during warm weather but needed to travel somewhere else to do it. So I got a job to pay for it.
aware definitely die focused hour living miles ski
(You) could die tomorrow. You've got to be aware of that. As a ski racer, that's definitely an option. You go 75, 80 miles an hour a lot of the time. You have to be focused on living each day the way you want in and of itself.
air cup fine hate hill hurts jumps knee lacking
This hill is not as challenging as a World Cup hill, but they could set it difficult, really difficult. The only thing it's really lacking is the air ... but it's fine with me. I hate jumps right now. My knee hurts so bad.
plan
If it's clear, it's clear. I don't plan to get disappointed.
olympics stuff
The stuff after the Olympics was pretty aggressive.
exciting match race results
This year, I wanted to race in a way that is exciting for me and that I like. Sometimes the results don't always match up.
