Alexis, Marcel & Ted

These three ski racers are bringing excitement back to a sport in which I had lost interest. They are so talented and yet so competitive that it bodes extremely well for the rest of the racing season. It is rare to have such a wealth of talent on display at the same time.

Their individual achievements seem to feeding upon each others and I'm totally convince that they all HATE so much to lose that it has a overpowering effect on them, dwarfing the roaring of their coaches and the acclaims of their fans.

I know what I'm talking about, because for me, the emotional intensity I feel when I lose, is always much greater than the joy of winning!
