Has anyone given any thought to what might happen if Sasha Cohen takes to the ice at Torino and completely blows it with several major mistakes?
Suppose she finishes, say, sixth or seventh, due to her mistakes, which unfortunately, seem to be part of her repetroire. She doesn't win a medal, she skates poorly before a worldwide television audience, and she has to face the world's press and explain why (again) she failed to live up to the world's lofty expectations.
Does Sasha retire from eligible competition? Does she shrug off the defeat, get right back into training, and then win the World title?
What would happen to her commercial endorsements and media princess persona if she blows it at Torino?
I hope Sasha does NOT blow it, but the possibility is out there.......
