Cohen Wins Silver

Despite some difficulty at the start of her routine Sasha Cohen earned a silver medal in her figure skating event Thursday. Sasha long the secondary figure in U.S. competitive figure skating became the nations best hope for gold in that event after the much loved Michele Kwan was forced out do to injury. Though obviously this wasn't the gold she was hopping for its still a good ending for this athlete who is often typed as a chock artist. This was one of the few stories I found some what interesting this Olympics and thus earns its own post.
