US Bobsledding Scandal Should Trouble Your Soul

This isn’t about doping. It is not about discrimination. It is not about cheating. It is about truth.

The center of this current controversy is really about one athlete. The athlete you have never heard of. The athlete that is considered the founder of US Olympic Bobsledding, William “Billy” Fiske III.

In the video below you will see that sentencing a war hero to oblivion should be a crime in itself. Yet, in this story you will see an athlete who at the time was the youngest gold medalist to stand upon an Olympic podium.

If you can take the time to listen you will hear one of the most amazing stories of human sacrifice ever to be told. The fact that we are also talking about a 2 time Olympic gold medalist (4 man bobsled) should raise your eyebrows. How many Olympians have left their gold medals at home to go fight a war abroad?

* In all fairness, there is a national cup with Billy’s name on it that is given to the national 4 man bobsledding champions (Aspen Colorado).

** The spirit of Steve Hollcomb wants mainstream media to share Billy’s story.
