Everybody knows Jen went about it the wrong way. But really, all of it was blown out of proportion by the media. |
First, there was no bitterness after Salt Lake City, she did what she needed to do. |
I always wanted to be a driver because I wanted more control. I hated being a brakeman because you have no control. I'm extremely excited about going to the Olympics. |
I do like being in control. I definitely enjoy being a driver. As a brakeman, you're kind of expendable. That's why I wanted to be a driver. |
I just think that Jean and I are very competitive teammates, but we have a healthy competitive nature between each other. But I feel like the last Olympics, it didn't really feel like a team. |
It's amazing to be here as a soldier and as a civilian as well. I just hope it lifts the spirits of every soldier out there. It's a great thing to win a medal for your country. |
It's different. There's really no rhythm to it. It's all mixed up from short to long to combinations. |
Nobody comes in here not wanting to win a medal. It's definitely a daydream, coming across the line, seeing that No. 1 on the clock, feeling that excitement. Everyone thinks of that. If I win a medal, I'll have enough press. If I don't, I won't care. |
That would be a nightmare for me to have to replace Val. Bethany Hart was ready. I know she could have done just as good a job. But I didn't want to kick Val out. I left it up to her to decide if she could do it. She knew what was at stake, and she came through. |
The emotions, you can't explain them. |
