Miller is a joke

It seems that every sportswriter is piling on American skiier Bode Miller. I'll jump onto the pile. This guy is a stone cold fool whose head is in the wrong place.

Despite his lack of success at the Olympics, Miller described the experience as awesome in an Associated Press (AP) column. Why? He enjoyed the bar scene in Sestriere, Italy. Miller also told the AP that he was less ready for this year's Games than he was for the 2002 Olympics, in which he won two silver medals.

If he focused more on skiing and less on partying, he might have lived up to the hype. Miller says the expectations came from other people. But, he carried on as if he was the greatest show on snow. If you're going to talk it up, you'd better deliver. He didn't.
