It was really cool. You get to know better some of the other competitors (on the U.S. Olympic team). It was kind of cool talking shop with those guys about their sport.

I’m having a wonderful time. It’s a wonderful experience.

Todd Hayes, the bobsled driver. We were on the bus with his four-man crew. They were hilarious. They were really a good time.

It was so fun to come across the line leading for a couple skiers.

I think Marco made a pretty big mistake on top and I made some mistakes on the bottom, so I knew it was going to be real tight. I had the opportunity to shut the...

I don’t know the last time, if ever, I’ve raced a super-G, and seen racing postponed and resumed the same day. None of the top five finishers had an [early] run, so they had a...

It’s more a race than a training day.

He almost blew his knee out in the downhill. To come back and ski the way he did today is unbelievable. He has more medals in the Olympics and world championships than some people have...

I am psyched. At the same time, I’m kind of bummed for Marco, because he doesn’t have another event to ski.

It’s incredible. He probably has more medals in the Olympics and world championships than some people have skied races. I can’t believe how he brings out his game when it counts most.

I’d rather get it out of the way tomorrow and be able to relax on Saturday. I was a little nervous because I had never raced the course before.

You have to take risks, in order to get the reward.

Today was one of those days, and this is definitely good for my confidence.

This was very difficult. You couldn’t see all the little terrain, especially at the top.

The focus is on Austria. Those guys always step it up, and there are so many of them, and it seems every year there’s a new guy. We’re starting to do that, and when we...

It’s a great day, especially with Bode skiing out. Ted stepped up.

I’m so excited for him. I’m his room-mate here. He deserves it, he skied great today.

There’s a lot of guys on the American team right now who can punch into that top 10, top five and medal placing.

I lost my voice screaming for Ted.
