So sad.
But that's the breaks.
Literally.
Kevin Connolly, our house guest again this year and last year's silver medalist, didn't qualify for the X Games Mono-ski finals because he broke his bucket frame today on his first qualifying run.
We were all looking forward to a whole weekend of X Games action, qualifier today, qualifier tomorrow, practice Saturday, and finals Sunday.
I guess we had a little chicken counting going on . . .
Steve was going to take Monday off so that he could take Kevin and Fritz into the Bowl. Kevin would have no problem hiking up as long as someone could carry his bucket.
But now they'll be heading home tomorrow.

I'd been wondering about Kevin and this year's X-games. I am disappointed. Well, you grew up in Chicago and maybe were a Cubs fan, so you're trained to think, "Maybe next year." With Kevin there's more certainty of success than with the Cubs.
