RIP Shaun White

This did not happen in Sochi.  Also our outfits weren\’t this nice.

By now, you\’ve heard it all.  Oh, his arm hurt.  Oh, he\’s too old.  Oh, he\’s focusing on his music.  Here\’s one thing no one has the courage to ask but this blog: was his power in his hair?  Here\’s the answer: yes.

Like a modern day Sampson, Shaun White quite literally tumbled from the halfpipe gold medal yesterday.  You may remember Shaun White from his previous two halfpipe gold medals and/or his appearance on E\’s The Girls Next Door.  You may also remember him from his announcement, not one week ago, that he would be focusing all his efforts on winning the halfpipe gold medal.  Oops.

With him tumbled not only USA\’s snowboarding dynasty, but the medal hopes of many fantasy league presidents.  Twelve of you have built your teams around his formerly curly mop and five teams have him at the helm.  Oops.
