Yeah, Richard. We ROCK!

I lost interest in the 'regular' Games towards the end.

The whininess of the U.S. athletes, coverage and commercials were overbearing.

Here you have people who do not 'leave' their ability on the field.

They have to deal with it 24/7. They just translate it into something that really makes you sit back and go, "WHOA".

I cannot ski and have use of my legs?

Even better?

Blind skiing?

The biathalon was incredible.

I am watching the L.A. Marathon and they wheelchair racers just started.

The local TV hosts were talking about the course and how the WC racers would do.


"We won't cover them over the whole course..." They'll peek in at the end of the course to see how their times are and how it will bode for the 'abled' runners.

That's a shame.....

Lipsett said he plans to take a year or two off, and then get back in shape for the 2014 Paralympics in Sochi, Russia.

He said wearing the USA jersey is important to him.

"I've gotten chills for the past six years every time I put it on," he said.
