Harding-Kerrigan 20 Years Later
For all you whippersnappers out there, a story about reaching for your dreams and the true embodiment of the Olympic spirit.
Tonya Harding remains my favorite US Olympian - no one was as committed to winning a gold medal as her. As sensational as this story was then, pre-interwebs, think of what would happen today.

You sure you don't have that name mixed up? You admire her because she got her husband to beat up her competitor?

Exactly, she went above and beyond to try and win.
Kerrigan just cried a lot.

Looks like Kerrigan ruined Harding's life, by being hotter.

Sorry, I thought my "embodiment of the Olympic spirit" line would have turned on the green text for you.
What I really admire is that this collection of idiots thought they could pull it off

Tonya is on some comedy channel type program where they show stupid people videos and then her and others make wise cracks about them.

I'm not ashamed to say that at that time I thought Harding was hot, and the whole trying to destroy her competitor made her hotter.

Tonya was also the star of one of the greatest 911 calls ever and in turn, one of Jim Rome's longest serving soundbites. so there's that. VIDEO
