Alright when u all make it to the olympics and win a silver medal u can try and trash talk lindsey but in tell then maybe u should all try shutting the fuck up. GO
How do you even try to defend what is possibly the biggest FAIL in Olympics history. Dozens of golds are given out every year and most people probably can't name a single winner a few years later. Looks at Lindsey! Years later and everyone knows her are the loser who threw away an Olympic gold medal because she was a moron. Not only did she not win one, CLEARLY she didn't deserve one.
OMG,,, what is wrong with yall..he wasnt saying freedom, or frieden.. he was saying the last name of the girl who passed jacobellis. that announcer is pretty kick ass. i was actually living in london in 2005, and was fortunate enough to watch the whole race with this guy talking. lindsey is actually considered one of the worlds best female snowboarders. everyone fucks up now and then. give the girl a break.
not sure why you need to get snippy with the 'read a book' comment. But maybe you could try doing some research yourself, because as best I can tell the german word 'frieden' is translated to 'peace', NOT freedom. Boom. Roasted.
You'd think a pro would be on their "best behavior" when it comes to the Olympics. But, then again, if it's just "another race" to her, then I grasp that she wasn't taking it as seriously as she could've.
Just an example of the difference between confident and cocky... if you pull it off, you're a hero... if you eat it, you're an idiot. She thought she was better than she was and life humbled her. Nice.
I've read about this and now finally get to see Jacobellis in all her glory. Thank you.
'would've, could've, had-she".......she still FAiLED. I see your point though, but that's HOW she got overconfident. With about 100m to go, she starts to daydream of gracing some magazine cover w/ 'that move', how people are talking about how cool her move was, product endorsement deals, or being the star of some 'extreme sports' dvd. whilst still in a dream, she does her move and then WHAAAMM...reality sets back in!! lol a well-deserved silver.
she thought she was the best and she got what she deserved hot dogging it in 2006. Well she didn't hotdog it this year but she had no reason to go as high as she did off the jump she fell on. Rookie mistake for this "Pro"
Yup. Ricker unfortunately didn't even get to finish in 2006 from crashing on the course, and this time she got to go all the way and do it in her home country too!
A nightmare for Jacobellis. Had to wait 4 long years, probably replaying that nightmare for a long time only thinking about redeeming herself in 2010 from that drama and now it's over just like that.
@joydivsion77 He is obviously making a reference to Braveheart where Mel Gibson screams "FREEEEDOOOMMMM" before being executed, the imitation by the commentator was spot on!!! :P
She just doesn't get it- I'm from USA but can't identify with these braggart showboat actions. She obviously has no sense of responsibility to her country and is "only havin fun, dude" for herself...so sad.
She totally deserved that and she is still paying for it to this day, evidenced by her total fail at this years olympics. I am from the USA and I have to admit that her show boating was completely disrespectful and goes against the core ideology behind the Olympics. She will go down in the history as the show boat that threw away a gold medal.
A "Lily Deebs" of a spill by Lindsay!!!!! I was so shocked at her fall that cost Lindsay the gold medal. This should never have happened if she did not prematurely celebrate with that showoff air manuever just before the finish line.
you are a douche. And you make our country look bad. So little tween boy STFU before the rest of us do it for you. Canada is only 4 medals behind us that's not that big, we only beat them by 1 medal last winter Olympics, for a country of 30 million that's not to bad since we have 10 times that amount of people with 300 million. Go back and cry to your mommy that no one likes you on youtube faggot little child.
LOL. Why am I watching the olympics on nbc??? I could be watching BBC baby!!!! Way better announcer than the "FRAT BRO COOL AIR TRICK BRAH!" announcers they have on American TV
Tanja Frieden announced her retirement today, due to the severe injuries (Achilles tendon rupture on both feet) suffered from an accident she had at the last world cup race before the Olympics in Vancouver. Bad luck for her this time. What a shame. Good luck for your life after sports, Tanja!
Lindsay, that's a beautiful silver medal, could you come to our school and speak about it, we've always wanted a successful olympic athlete to speak at our school but nobody is available, so silver you say? That's good enough for 6th graders!
If she is that good, then why did she fall and loose the gold medal showing off, if she was a great sportswoman, then she wouldve saved the celebrating til she had the gold medal WON!
Cost her the gold, the olympic title and endless tears i imagine! On the plus side, was 1 of the funniest moments in sports history LOL
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you guys should all shut up she is a veryyy good snowboarder and id like to see you do half of what shes done and if you can good for you but when you fall see whos laughing at you. and she was definatley nott showing off..it was er first time in the olympics and she got excited so cut her some slack and shut up
she is not a bitch and isnt cursed it was just a little mistake she is one of the best snowboarders so i wish people would stop its really annoying i'd liek to see the people commenting rude comments go as fast and be the best as she is.
she wasnt shoboating if thats what you mean she just got excited it was her first time at the olympics what do you expect and she is reallyy good and she will prvoe that in the next olympics
so what? she tweaked out a method air and lost the gold. and who are you all to say that she isnt good? and yapopz, i dont see you competing in the olympics. or mabye i just didnt see you in the knitting event. so fuck off. dont come to america or ill kick your ass.
tahhahahaha LITTLE MS CUTE WIT HER LITTLE CUTE COFFEE DRINK WAVIN FROM DA SKILIFT ALL CUTE DEN FELL DOWN N BUST HER BUTT. LOOK LIKE SHE GOT A LITTE TOOO CUTE DIDNT SHE? TAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAA
I remember watching this as it aired, and thought what happened, and when they showed the replays I was so pissed. She embarassed herself, her country and her sport. That was a disgusting display, and only wished 2 more people had passed her because that performance is not medal worthy.
No matter how you want to spin this - Jacobellis is a lock to be the biggest sports moron in history. Over Leon Lett in the Super Bowl, over Jean Vandevelde -- above and beyond anyone - ever. This was the OLYMPIC GAMES -- not the idiotic and worthless X-Games. She was performing for her country's glory. To lose like she did is so satisfying for someone that was taught how to win with class and dignity and honor.
I agree with NyBob - this was quite embarrassing. It's one thing to board...skate (what verb do I use here) your best and come up short of gold, but another to have a win sealed and then fall while showing off and screw it up!
What a wonderfull race! I love it.... Tanja your the best! She had so often unluck! So it's fair that she won!! Tanks Tanja for the wunderful Party you organiced in Thun!!!!
As an American, this is embarrassing. If she wants to goof off while competing in the X-Games while participating for herself and only herself, fine. But she's representing the United States. Her embarrassing performance not only reflects on her but the whole country, and it cost us a gold in the medal count.
show off? we invented the integrated circuit and the sport you are commenting on.. invent a new sport and the means to broadcast your comments about it.. in other words, stop following and lead
Us brits invented most modern sporting games ( yep even Ice hockey...) I think you'll find its not the personal misfortune non-americans find funny but the whole irony of the clip, but then Americans can't really grasp irony.
