...Bode Miller, the bad boy of Torino. Profiled and promoted in media as diverse as 60 Minutes, Rolling Stone and, ahem, TIME, he was bound to disappoint. But not the way he did. Of the five Olympic events in which he was expected to medal, he did not finish two, was disqualified in one and finished fifth and sixth in the others.
