An articulate athlete

I happened to catch an interview this morning on Good Morning America with Hope Solo, an Olympic soccer star. It was an interesting and wide ranging interview and I realized after a few minutes that this woman was speaking in complete sentences. Not only that, she never once started a sentence with "so". Now nothing against athletes but I've heard many interviews with athletes (and for that matter, movie and TV stars) that seldom got beyond one syllable words and grunts, so this was a real pleasure.  I will be cheering for Hope in the Brazil Olympics.
