	Miller races to second title - The Boston Globe
		Miller's daring and brashness on the slope has become his signature, but the overall World Cup leader understood a bit of restraint was called for this time.
		Miller leads the overall standings with 630 points, a whopping 291 ahead of second-place Maier.
		Miller won the season-opening giant slalom but failed to complete the one in Beaver Creek, Colo. So he made a cautious first run Sunday, simply intent on finishing.

	Rolling Stone : Bode Miller: Speed Freak
		Miller is Johnny Knoxville as a rosy-cheeked Ski God, a sexy redneck addicted to DIY fun, adrenaline highs and stupid amounts of beer.
		Miller has spent an unusual amount of effort developing specialized gear, a unique training regimen (unicycling, tightrope walking, jumping from stone to stone in the river) and an experimental ski style of sharp-radius turns, a crouching stance and radical boot-leaning-back.
		Miller was in top physical shape as a teenage tennis state champion and star soccer player when he was sent to Carrabassett Valley Academy, a Maine racing school where the coaches did not consider him one of the more promising students.

	ESPN.com - Miller, Rahlves finish 1-2 in super-G season finale
		Miller and Daron Rahlves led a 1-2 American finish in the World Cup super-G finale Thursday after both failed to medal at the Torino Olympics last month.

		Miller is expected to race Friday in the giant slalom and Saturday in the slalom.

		Miller, the reigning World Cup overall champion, finished fifth while Rahlves, with three World Cup downhill victories this season, was 10th, unable to produce the magical run of surprise champion Antoine Deneriaz of France.
		Miller clocked the fastest speed of any racer, reaching 79.13 miles per hour, and had the second fastest time in the middle of five intervals.
		Miller will compete in those races (he won silver in giant slalom in 2002) as well as the combined (another silver in 2002) and slalom.

	[No title] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Miller narrowly avoided a high-speed collision with a course worker to capture his first World Cup downhill victory in two years, ignoring the scare along with increasingly heavy snowfall to charge down the Birds of Prey course in 1 minute, 46.15 seconds.
		Miller, known for his steady nerves, had a close call when a man in a green jacket lost his footing on the icy surface and streaked across his path just two gates below the brazen skier.
		The color of the man's coat, which Miller remembers as orange instead of green, suggests it was not an official but rather a coach or a photographer.

	AP Wire \| 12/01/2006 \| Miller wins Birds of Prey downhill
		Miller and Daron Rahlves, the country's most decorated speed event skier, traded 1-2 finishes here in 2004 and '05.
		Miller's last World Cup victory was at the finals in Are, Sweden, in March, when he won a super-G. Beaver Creek is the only U.S. stop on the World Cup circuit, so "obviously, everybody's pushing the limits here," Miller said.
		But the 29-year-old showed he was back on form in Thursday's super-combi, posting the fastest time in the downhill leg before going off course in the slalom run after he had accidentally left his foot beds in his GS boots when he hurriedly switched to his speed boots.

	washingtonpost.com: Overall, Miller on Course for Title
		Bode Miller's go-for-broke style in yesterday's Super-G at the World Cup final in Lenzerheide, Switzerland, earned him a surprising victory and all but ensured he will be crowned the world's best Alpine skier by the end of this weekend.
		Miller, a free-spirited maverick who travels in a motor home to events while in Europe, made sure of that with Thursday's second-place in the downhill and yesterday's victory.
		But Miller's agent, Lowell Taub, said it would be "a stretch" to execute such a plan for the 2005-06 season.

		Miller, whose best chances at victory lie in the technical disciplines, will need to overcome a dismal season in the slalom, what used to be his best discipline.
		In addition, Miller will have to quash thoughts of his accident at the worlds two years ago, when he crashed out in the combined downhill, tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.

		Miller, who is doing things no American man has done since Phil Mahre won three World Cup overall titles in the early 1980s, said he wasn't overwhelmed by critics or pressure or anything.
		Miller went at it typically aggressively, making mistakes, slamming down to his hip at one point, but making typically skillful recoveries and keeping a tight line, searching for speed.
		Miller laughed and laughed as he told his family about his run, how he almost lost it here or there and how he somehow put it in the finish.

		Miller trails Rahlves by 18 points, setting up what should be a dramatic conclusion to the World Cup season.
		Daron doesn't race any slalom, he doesn't race any combined, so those are two other opportunities to put a lot of points on the board.
		I would say for (Daron) to win a speed title, he'll probably have to be on the podium every race from here on out, because he's off the mark there.
