SandBox Comments: Aspen Times "Paper blows off feat by hometown skater"

We agree!  How come we didn't have any press on this incredible accomplishment by local figureskater, Jeremy Abbott?

When ESPN is quoted as, "Jeremy Abbott proved he's capable of contending with the best in the world -- past and present.....", one would think we would.  

Congratulations to local world champion figure skater, Jeremy Abbott.

Click on the SandBox inserted links within the following post off the Aspen Times as Debbie Dietz Shore of Snowmass Village writes in to the Aspen Times: 
" Dear Editor:
On Sunday, Jeremy Abbott took first place at the National Skating Championships at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif. This was Jeremy's third first-place win at Nationals in four years, and his score broke all records for anyone at national championships.

I have searched the paper eagerly every day this week for news of this accomplishment by a hometown boy. The excitement over the X Games notwithstanding, I would think this achievement would merit a story in The Aspen Times. ..." (Debbie Dietz Shore, Snowmass Village)
