Colbert Nation Sponsorship




Colbert Nation has stepped up to the plate to help sponsor the athletes of U.S. Speedskating!

DSB Bank has pulled its sponsorship of the team after announcing its recent bankruptcy situation leaving hundreds of thousands of dollars gone.

Speedskating is not exactly a "household" sport here in America.  Did you know that the most medals won during the winter games and brought back to U.S. soil are from the sport of speedskating?

Our athletes are better known on the streets of other countries for the sport in which they excel. It is great to see that a public forum which is viewed by so many will allow this sport to attain more notoriaty and have their home country cheering them on as they step up on the podium in Vancouver.  We have many medal contenders ready to take their place in the history books and with the generosity of the Colbert Nation support, dreams are still within reach.

Watch Monday's interview with Dan Jansen & Bob Crowley of US Speedskating http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/254015/november-02-2009/sport-report---nyc-marathon---olympic-speedskating.The skater shown in the clip where DSB is replaced by Colbert Nation on the hood of the skinsuit is our very own Trevor Marsicano!
