What was the old ABC wide world of sports line, "The joy of victory, the agony of defeat".

"The trill of victory and the agony of defeat".. How many times did that ski jumper have to relieve the agony of defeat. Slovenian athlete Vinko Bogataj remembered the 1970 fall but nothing afterwards. He didn't realize he had become famous as he never saw the footage until he was invited to NY in 1981 for the 20th Wide World of Sports anniversary. It was when Mohammed Ali asked for his autograph that he realized he had become famous.

Thanks John. Some of that is deeply hidden in my head, somewhere.
