P.S. I've been feeling sorry for the indoor volleyball player Destiny Hooker -- sounds like she was born in a strip joint!

3. Terrific player

I saw her for the Longhorns in the 2009 NCAA title match against a Penn State w/ a 100+ winning streak. Her team went up 2-0 then Penn State won 3 sets in a row for their third straight title. The Lions best player from that team, Meagan Hodge is on this US team. Hooker was the 2010 tournament MVP. She's currently averaging 21 points a match during this Olympics. She has a devastating shot, announcers have used the line, "Hooker with the facial" quite a bit when her powerful shots struck someone in the face. I'd hate to be on the receiving end of one of those.

5. There is an Indy Car racer named Will Power.

I bet he hates his parents.
