Games of the XXX Olympiad-London
I always love me the Olympics, especially when I have some homegrown talent to root for.

I've been watching as much of the Trials as I can. They continue this week for anyone interested. Either on NBC or NBCSN. For a rooting interest, with the LSU angle, I'll pull a little harder for Lolo Jones in the 100m hurdles. Long jumper Marquis Goodwin earned his way onto Team USA, and he went to the high school right across the lake from me.
I was pulling for New Iberia, La native Morgann LeLeux in women's pole vault. She's only a 19 year old freshman but won the SEC Championships and placed 2nd at the NCAA Championships. She started well at the Olympic Trials in Eugene, OR but fell short of beating the Pros. These photos are from the Trials on Sunday.
Are full body suits the new "in thing"? If so, I may be watching a whole lot less pole vaulting.
Naw, the three ladies who won spots on the team all wore 2 piece, skimpy, outfits. My wife called them bikinies, but they weren't. However, close.
This was the first time I've seen Morgan wear that outfit. Univ of Georgia must have made her wear it. I dunno, but I'll ask her.
This is a photo I took of Morgann when she won the SEC title last month.
I love the Olympics and will be watching most of it, but I like swimming and gymnastics the best, even though I prefer the winter games. We took a trip to Italy during the winter Olympics a few years ago, it was fun, but really expensive and they have it set up that you can only get tickets and rooms through their own agencies.

Hey Morgan, my pervy friends on EE wanna know something...

Ok, I understand the gold, silver, and bronze medals, but what is the big one on the right? Is there some kind of special Thunderdome event that the winner gets that medal for?
