A popular discussion this week has been soccer violence, how it's been covered in the media, and how the coverage is being covered. However, this is a great find that should tell us a lot about women athletes and if they are getting more violent, or if the media is just getting more observant.

It's time to start paying more attention to the winter athletes whose sports will be contested in less than 100 days now:

@GretchenBleiler: FoxSports interview w/me http://bit.ly/3DTWNX watch closely, you'll see the Olympic footy isn't all me, same outfits=hard to tell us apart!

Best use of hash tags this week:

@Pr3pE (Essence Carson): whoooooa I know this girl is NOT using the bathroom with the door open on the bus. omg #FAIL #killyourself #disgusting #packthatup

If you're not following @followlolo (and you probably are because she has almost 2,000 followers) then you should be. Seriously, the funniest person I follow (except maybe @shitmydadsays). And she also apparently likes to make fun of Brianna Glenn:

@followlolo: @briannaglenn did you retire from track and get a new job as a writer? you've writen more new stuff than Steven King

@followlolo: @briannaglenn that is alot of carbs! what are you a marathoner?!

@followlolo: Whydo track recruits get so caught up on having grt locker room?U think I had a locker room @ Olympics?Not even bathroom but hole in ground!

@followlolo: http://znl.me/VU8VH Out of stock! Have my brothers been visiting this website?!

@followlolo: Groc. shopping & caught a cramp in my hip/groin.I thus proceeded to finish my shopping walking like a zombie as I dragged my dislocated leg

@followlolo: I always scream at my dog MOVE bc he loves to block the sensor for my cable box...and then I say NO I won't turn it on the animal channel!

@lolojonesnews How many push-ups with a clap can you do in 30 seconds? http://bit.ly/zysC1 - I can do 7


Athletes, they are like us. They make fun of their bad moves:

@eamslider24 (Elana Meyers): Bit a hole in my tongue lifting...sweet http://twitpic.com/mnvch

@kjspisak (Kati Jo Spisak):My Halloween costume... http://twitpic.com/o57s0 - ok, I don't think she considers that a bad move, but I'm feeling judgemental

@aggyrun (Lisa Galaviz): Just got rocked in Dance-Dance revolution by my new teammates....at the weight room...I have some training to do...maybe I can sneak back in

@McMillanRunning (Greg McMillan): Funny story: As I was introduced b4 my talk last weekend, I stepped in a bin of bodyglide. Slipped & fell on my tail in front of crowd! Nice

@jfinch27: note to self & to others... don't start working out & horseback riding the same week!


Couldn't have said it better myself:

@joakes19 (Jill Oakes):Today someone said "helping" is selfish (about yourself) and "service" is selfless (about others)... I am committed to being of service

@jfinch27: practice, practice, practice! sacrifice, dedication, commitment, discipline! oh and most of all have fun and enjoy it!

@briannaglenn: If your meal was $18.99, don't hand me a $20 and think you're good! new blog @ http://mysocalledfabulousli...

@tksb15 (Tammy Sutton Brown): Happy Friday 13th
