> [@footballisplayedwithyourfeet](#): > > The pursuit is not 5000m, it is 8 laps (5000 is 12.5) and all innerlanes, so around 3000 - but not exactly.., You’re right. I got confused. All those gold medals in the last few days had me kind of overwhelmed…! ---

I thought Lindsey Vonn was the most conventionally beautiful of all the Olympians, but I was way more attracted to [Melanie](http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-curling/athletes/melanie-robillard_ath1013691xW.html) [Robillard](http://www.teamschoeppweb.com/assets/images/MelanieRobillard1.jpg), one of the curlers for the German team. How can you not fall for a Canadian born Olympic athlete who’s also a law student and speaks 4 languages? > [@Surly\_Chick](#): > > And yes, even US goalie [Ryan Miller](http://www.nbcolympics.com/athletes/athlete=2478/index.html). He’s adorable in a Mr. Potatohead sort of way. If goalies are your thing, Swedish goalie [Henrik](http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-hockey/athletes/henrik-lundqvist_ath1027666IV.html) [Lundqvist](http://www.nypost.com/pagesixmag/issues/20090104/Henrik+Lundqvist+Worlds+Sexiest+Ice+Man) looks like the prototype for GQ models. ---

He probably doesn’t bat for my team, but [Johnny Weir](http://i.a.cnn.net/si/2006/players/03/14/questions0320/t1_weir.jpg) is very pretty. What can I say? I like 'em slightly fey. And bilingual. ---

I love the curlers and all, but [Lindsey](http://popsop.ru/wp-content/uploads/lindsey-vonn_photoshoot_01.jpg)[Vonn](http://m.blog.hu/eu/eurosport/image/lindsey%20vonn.jpg) takes the gold. ---

Definitely agree with Sidney Crosby, even if I feel guilty for the fact that he’s almost ten years younger than I am! (Legal, but it’s still ten years!) He shouldn’t have cut his hair, though – I liked those long curls you could run your fingers through. Nor would I kick Brooks Orpik out of bed. Mmmm…free candy. ---

Eh, Lindsey Vonn is pretty, I’ll give you that. But she’s almost _too_ pretty… and very overrated, especially in the looks department. Oh, she’s so pretty… and a good athlete. Let’s make her the golden girl of the Olympics. Blech. ---
