What were the U.S. Olympic snowboarders thinking after their historic sweep in the halfpipe competition?
B. "Halfpipes, full pipes ... anybody who says the Olympics don't have it all don't know what he's talking about." C. "Dude, I once got so high, that everyone in the crowd looked like an ant." D. "Dude, I once got so high, that the Olympic Village looked like that 'It's a Small World" ride." E. "Hey, man, we don't remember nobody sayin' nothin' about any urine specimens." F. "Resentful of our success, the mainstream media will almost certainly portray snowboarders as a collective group of poorly educated young men who use recreational drugs and lash out at the establishment. ESPN.com's Page 2, in particular, cannot possibly comprehend the breadth and depth of the typical snowboarder. In reality, we are a highly cultured fraction of an Olympic community that has an excellent grasp on the major social and economic issues facing our world in a post-Sept. 11 age."
