Lolo Jones' comment rankles some U.S. bobsledders

If Lolo Jones returns to Lake Placid, N.Y., later this year in hopes of making the Olympic bobsled team, she can expect a frosty reception. After she posted a Vine video on Monday cheekily complaining about her $741.84 check from the U.S. Bobsled and Skeleton Federation, the most accomplished bobsledder in U.S. history called Jones' comments "a slap in the face."

Yeah, he was basically just saying thanks for bringing attention to the fact that Olympians get so little financial help. He didn't take offense to any of it.
