I don't use this term lightly, but since she caught my attention a year ago, it has become clear that she is not only drop-dead gorgeous, but smart, funny and now a PROVEN CLUTCH PERFORMER.
She knocked down the two best active women's vaulters (Payne and Suhr), becoming the third highest all-time, and is now going to be the favorite next week at Worlds. I dont have cable so couldnt watch any of the races, but I feel like I got to watch one of the best competitions in T/F history, with my favorite emerging victorious.

The best part about her win tonight was when she apparently didn't pay close enough attention to realize that suhr has taken an attempt at the previous height, so only had two attempts at the final height. So after suhr missed a second time, Morris hadn't realized that she had won until the other athletes started walking up to congratulate her. Then she started freaking out.
I was sitting right by Rick suhr. He did not looked pleased. He yells at Jenn even when she's doing well and winning. He felt the need to continue "coaching" her even after she missed her final attempt.
I want to like suhr since she is our American record holder. But between her slight arrogance and her husband's general demeanour, I am all for the rise of Payne and Morris to hopefully take her American record away soon.
Payne looked disappointed of course. She came in off a hot indoor season setting some prs. I am sure she thought suhr was her only threat, didn't realize that Morris would pass at an attempt at a pr, then make the next two bars for what was essentially a 3 bar pr. Huge day for her. -
My impression of the other women vaulters is that they were extremely pleased for her. She was very animated talking with them between goes while Suhr and Payne seemed to just stalk about and glower (for obvious reasons, of course). I wish I could have heard what was being said amongst all the parties, I think the chick drama was pretty high on the charts....

Great athlete? Yes.
Gorgeous? Decent in a boring way. -
The involuntary virgin makes its appearance, right on schedule.
When you ideal "woman" is 87 lbs and is four stress fractures away from puberty I can see where you are coming from.

Sorry, the guy can't refer to a woman as "decent" without apparently outing himself as an "involuntary Virgin?"
Also where did he indicate any preference for ultra skinny women? -
Apparently you missed the "in a boring way" portion of this particular "connoiseur's" assessment.
In any case, Sandi would laugh all this off, she is much more gracious than any of us, lol:

Not even what I'm talking about. Funny that you jump to that conclusion. I actually like bigger women than this person.
She just looks...boring to me. Meh.
But if your ideal woman is a blond farmgirl from a 1950s women's magazine, I can see where you are coming from. -

Thanks.
50 Shades is way off the mark.
