Here! Here! I have been afraid to speak my mind about Ms. K... lest I be beaten to death by hoards of patriotic devotees...come on I hail from the eastern part of Massachusetts and recognize that surly superior but unintelligent brand of parochialism. For evidence of this I point to her rude behavior just prior to and during the medal ceremony. How many endorsements does she have anyway? How can someone who is so inarticulate have so many...oops I forgot about all the other professional athletes... Thumbs up for Katarina Witt! Dianne Brooks
