Selfish of  Vonn to even start having injury.... not only she injured herself more, she's ruining competition for the others... Athletes should serve some consequences for selfish decisions like this as its affecting the rest of competition

Like the Williams sisters, or Ronaldo, some people don't know when to call it quits and stop being in spotlight.

At least I think we can already write down who is going to light the Olympic flame in  2034. Only question is if she'll be standing or sitting.

Genuinely not sure what I'd hate more, the remains of my knee being absolutely fucked to nothingness or hanging at the end of a rope under a helicopter at that altitude.

To be very clear, I obviously hope it will be standing

Oh I know you do, I think you should've probably gave it more time though before making a joke like that

She was the red bib leader of the World Cup.  So let's not go down that road here

Honestly it wasn't really a joke. I hope it is not the case, but this might have ruined her knee and leg so badly, and kind of permanently.

Man, that was brutal.

Exactly. This injury thing of this week aside, in terms of speed she absolutely still was at the very top of the world, no problem in going on when you're still competitive or enjoying it.
