Click on the text to access this morning's article in the New York Times about the US Ski Team. The focus of the article was on the Executive Director and his salary, especially given the size of the non-profit he is running and the stressful economic times we are in. A complex issue, no doubt, however one gets the sense that we may be cutting off support for the next generation of medal winners to pay for administrative bonuses today. (While it doesn't necessarily say so in the article, I will make a conjecture that the cuts will disproportionately effect nordic ski racers.)
