Sorry if this is a repost. I'm shocked.

Earlier this afternoon, Langely McNeal (USA) was disqualified for
wearing a Sarah Burke armband in the women’s Skier X event. Langley had
advanced to the finals, before being disqualified. Although reports
around the incident are hard to find, it appears as though the French
team protested McNeal’s wearing of the armband.
Preliminary reports indicate that the disqualification was due to
regulations in Skier X, limiting the clothing an athlete may wear in
order to make him/herself more aerodynamic. Although this may have been a
Skier X regulatory issue, it appears X Games has been doing its best to
mute the incident. Subsequently, the X Games Facebook page has deleted
all comments related to the event.
This appears to be an outrageous display of classlessness, even for
the French. Please post your support for McNeal below, or let X Games
know how you feel via Facebook or Twitter.
