-You were training for the Olympics. So you want to win. But the endorsement and the life that you can set up... You have all set up. What point are you sort of preparing for that or kind of what if this happens or kind of giving your head and your heart that direction.
Kwan: Going into the Olympics you already have the certain sponsors that you represent. You have Coca Cola, Visa...I have to say I admit that it does add the pressure because you had weight on your shoulder. I don't know if you feel that. Not only do I want to represent the U.S. and do my best, but here's everybody counting on me to take home the gold or just give them the good job.
Finch: It can be an easy distraction. We all have the idea like entertaining a bit. For some athletes it can take a focus away. For other athletes it might give them a drive. For me, I know that will take my focus away. I need to do the stuff with some fun. The reason I've got snowing is the love for it. If I don't stick to that, I will fail. That's what I learned over the time. It is like a few years to learn that.
Street: For me it's always in the back of my mind. I'm kind of that methodological thinking type. I kind of train to categorize all of them to put them into right spots in my mind so that I can actually put it out of my mind when it's time to go. Because, quite frankly, when I'm in the starting gate of downhill, I'm sorry but I cannot be thinking about how much money am I making in the end of this day, whether or not made the sponsor happy. I've got really kind of a plan of attack here and I've got to focus it on. So I will organize it. So I can put it aside. And then just really be me.
4 days for the opening...
May all the athletes can show their strength by being themselves!
