I’ve never understood why they do this. I just want to watch her ski. I’m glad she is happy, but I watch skiing for the skiing. I remember the first time I was watching Tennis, and they were making it about Brooke Shields in the stands. We are lucky to have been able to watch Lindsey and Shiffrin ski. That’s enough for me.
If she retires today, she’s the best. If she keeps skiing for another decade, she’s still the best

Thing I liked from that, didn't know about, is around the 3:00 mark of the video, two things on the back of her helmet:
1: "ABFTTB": always be faster than the boys
2: "Be nice. Think first. Have fun."

I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.
The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.
Win #89 in the slalom at Levi, Finland, although it was due to the leader Vhlova straddling a gate on her second run.
Shiffrin’s publicist Megan Harrod shared in an email to the Vail Daily that Shiffrin “sustained a significant bone bruise to her tibial plateau but stability and ligaments are all perfectly intact.”
Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.
