The recent tbi of Jamie has caused me to think about something that I have pondered after Sarah's death and other major injuries. That is, are these injuries avoidable and is anyone to blame? Every time I watch a girl's ski comp that is on a men's course, it looks sketchy as fuck. There is...

http://www.drdre.com/i-need-a-doctor/ What do you guys think? I sort of like it but I'm not sure yet as I'm incredibly biased. I get all sentimental with Dre and Eminem working together again so the initial impression may wear off.

There have been a shit ton of threads this year bitching about peoples reactions to losing in the big competitions and I am getting sick of it. People need to stop expecting skiers to be fucking amped when they lose competitions. There is a big difference between being disappointed and being a...
