Go Team USA

We don't typically think of Winter Olympic athletes as Creatives (well, except for Johnny Weir and his fashion line, Be Unique), but American snowboarder Graham Watanabe definitely needs to be recognized as an honorary Creative. When asked in a press conference how it feels to be at the Olympics, he answered:
"Try to imagine Pegasus mating with a unicorn and the creature that they birth. I somehow tame it and ride it into the sky in the clouds and sunshine and rainbows. That's what it feels like."
Somebody -- an advertising firm, a videogame company, it doesn't matter -- needs to hire this guy to just sit around and talk.

Good luck to all the athletes!!
