Davis Does It His Way, and Makes History


TURIN, Italy Feb 18, 2006 — Shani Davis knew what he was doing. Davis became the first black to win an individual gold medal in Winter Olympic history Saturday, capturing the men's 1,000-meter speedskating race.

He should be very proud. As a white woman, I am extremely proud of HIM!

Proud seems like the wrong word. Here is a guy that wouldn't even scate in the team relay and didn't associate with teammates.
The phrase I would use is "I appreciate his athletic ability". Kinda like I appreciate Barry Bonds as a baseball player, but think he is a jerk.
