Give them all a gold medal...they deserve it

The men's downhill at Whistler was fantastic. Speed and grace...and guts. All three medal winners deserve the gold as far as I'm concerned.

The competition for the gold medal was so close -- 0.09 hundredths of a second separated the champion, Switzerland's Didier Defago, silver medalist Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway and bronze medalist Bode Miller of the United States. The respect the trio must have for one another...well you could see it up close and personal as the NBC cameras zoomed in on the amazing threesome, following the event.

It was the smallest of margin between first and third place in Olympic men's downhill history. It's mind boggling. All that training and preparation. Three men from different parts of the world, racing downhill at upwards of 80 miles an hour, twisting through thick, icy snow only to cross the finish line within a split second of each other.

The men's downhill is my favorite event, but hats off to all the Olympic athletes who are competing in Vancouver, B.C. this week. They are putting on a show and the entire world is watching.
