US Mogul Skiers Unimpressive

I used to race on the mogul circuit when I attended the University of Colorado. Back then, it was not an olympic sport, and wasn't even a varsity sport at the school. But now it is big time, and the US had some very good skiiers competing last night.

Unfortunately, they didn't live up to the hype. Jeremy Bloom, who also went to CU and played football, was the favorite. He finished a disappointing sixth. Travis Mayer finished even further down the list. But Toby Dawson did get the bronze metal, so congrats to him.

The highlight for CU alums last night was not watching Jeremy Bloom at the Olympics, but seeing the men's basketball team beat #19 ranked Oklahoma on EPSN2. Go Buffs!
