A look inside the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, B.C.
Thursday, September 24th, 2009
Posted by Craig Hill @ 08:19:05 am
Bode Miller has called a press conference for this morning for 11 to announce his intentions for the 2010 Olympics and 2009-10 World Cup season.
While he said previously he was done with Olympics, I think it's pretty obvious what he's going to say this morning (After all, U.S. alpine coach Sasha Rearick is joining him at the press conference.)
Miller is still one of the best skiers in the world and the winningest skier in U.S. history. Even if he doesn't medal in Whistler his presence should take some pressure off the rest of the U.S. team.
