running kids wife
Some of them I probably would like. Some of my fans probably beat their wives or run over little kids and they just happen to watch me on TV and like the way I ski. Obviously I clearly wouldn't like that person if I knew 'em better.
thinking long priorities
I think four Olympics is probably enough. Five Olympics is a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that if I'm into it and I'm healthy and my priorities can fit around that.
years noses afternoon
I had crashes when I was small and Gumby-like that would have killed me now. I would just fly off jumps and go 40 or 50 meters when I was 6 years old - break skis, smash my goggles and get a bloody nose and go crawl inside for a little while and then come back out and ski more in the afternoon.
lows adrenaline huge
A huge adrenaline rush is usually followed by a pretty low point.
racing gone skis
From 1999 to 2003 was the peak of equipment in ski racing. Since then, it's all gone in the wrong direction.
wish would-be feels
If I could wish one thing for anyone, it would be to not have to do anything his entire life-just go along and when you feel like doing something, do it.
people care judgment
I don't care what other people's judgments come down to-I care what my judgments come down to.
team racing shapes
My team has been very unreceptive about the fact that I consistently show them that I train slightly differently than they do, that I consistently show them that I am in better shape for ski racing than anyone else on the team.
sports racing skiing
I don't put anything in front of taking ski racing and sports seriously.
beers few
I had dinner. Then I had a few beers with friends and went home.
confusion criteria hoped moment objective positive reflect
I skied the way I hoped would reflect a positive objective. There's a discrepancy there. There's a moment of confusion and disappointment, but my objective criteria was satisfied.
finished people
I've straddled probably more times than most people have finished slalom.
finger instead nice
I don't have to put a finger on it. That's what's nice about being me instead of you. You're the one that has to put a finger on it.
bunch changing leader team
He's been the leader on this team for a bunch of years. There's going to be a changing of the guard.
