across either finished front good guys happy hard line sad section shut speed tomorrow top
I thought I had some good speed going in the top section and then I shut it down pretty hard and put myself out of the top 30. But at least I'll know what I finished right away. I'll either be happy or sad when I come across the finish line tomorrow because all the top guys are (starting) in front of me.
definitely gold hard matter medal olympics walk win
This is hard to swallow. It's not the way I wanted it to end. If you win a gold medal at the Olympics it doesn't matter what else you've done. I definitely wanted to walk away from here on top.
bang events hard injury longest race stay streak
It's impressive, and that's got to be the longest streak ever. He had to be injury free. It's hard to race all these events and stay healthy, not bang yourself up one way or another.
event hard knowing last racing three time
It's hard to swallow, knowing this is the last time I'll be racing in an event like this. Three times in the Olympics, and I haven't medaled.
medal saved ted
I think we should've been able to medal in every event. What Ted did was awesome. He pretty much saved our butts.
bring came chance definitely felt lack medals short skiers
This sucks. We definitely came up very short of what we were potentially able to do. ... It really felt like we had a chance to bring down medals in every event. We had the skiers to do that. It's not for lack of trying.

He's going to be tough to beat here.
bummed keeping people
I'm a little bummed out that they are keeping people off the hill.
course felt looking rest weather
I felt really comfortable on the course and the weather is looking to be the same, so I'm just going to rest and come back for Saturday.
felt timing
I felt like I was flowing. My timing was there. Something wasn't working out.
red wearing
I'd like to be wearing the red (leader's) bib in downhill.
across came felt gate good line runs speed surprised
I don't know where the speed went today. I really don't know what to say. I got in the gate and I was ready. I came across the line and I was really surprised where I was at. I felt it was a good run, one of the better runs I've had.
speed
I don't know where the speed was today.
goes skier
Bode goes out there and goes hard, and that's all you want out of a skier and a teammate.
