Ski Minus 6 Months: Vancouver Winter Olympics Preview

Lindsey Vonn's Wheaties Box

Lindsey Vonn Wheaties box

Not since that rave in the middle of the desert and the Chemical Brothers dropped the needle on "Bloc Rockin' Beats", has someone been peaking at such the perfect time. Lindsey Vonn's moment of ecstasy will soon be upon us. Madison Avenue is already drooling over the prospect. She's beautiful, fun-loving, charmingly geeky, and an absolutely dominating beast on skis. Already the greatest American woman skier of all-time at the ripe old age of 25, Vonn will enter the collective consciousness of America and make the jump from the back bowls of Vail to the front of her very own Wheaties Box. Prophecy!

What about Nordic Combined? How about Tod Lodwick & Billy Demong, the reining World Champions.

Apart from Vonn and Wescott, how did you choose this eclectic mix of athletes - while bypassing many other stronger hopefuls?

Very poor job zeke. You bypassed a lot more color, vitality, and true contenders than you included. You go for cute. Don't they have any informed writers?

That's not Bode Miller in that picture. That's just some drunk guy...where did you find that and what made you think it was Bode?
