    She just couldn't bring herself to skip the Match Play Championships, I guess.

    She'll never break Ohno's record now.

    Dang, Tiger was probably hoping she'd be out of town for a few weeks so he could go to Perkins by himself.

    NBC execs are frantically searching through pics of the rest of the US female Olympians to find their next darling.

    Sad, but not surprised. I thought she might give it a go, get the green light from the US Ski team because of past accomplishments and celebrity status and finish 33rd in the downhill or something almost embarrassing.

    That's hilarious, and probably true.

    I remember when the Olympics were a once in a lifetime shot - you had a window and if you didn't hit that window you were pretty much done.

    I'd like a once in a lifetime shot in some of these lady skiers.
