Lay Off Lindsey

"Alone in the clear, Lindsey Jacobellis could have practically crawled to the finish line and won. After an Olympic-sized flub, she probably wishes she had.

Coasting to what should have been a runaway victory Friday, the 20-year-old American grabbed her board on the second-to-last jump before the finish line. Inexplicably — and some say inexcusably — she fell."

So get over it. Leave her alone. She won a Silver medal at the 2006 Olympics and that is more than a lot of other Americans. Several highly expected winners have not even medaled. I say congratulations to Lindsey Jacobellis.
