Subject: One iceskater I won't be rooting for (slightly sensitive)

Figure skater Sasha Cohen, age 21, is back in the news. She won the U.S. Figure Skating Championship Saturday night in Turin, Italy, and is assured a place on the U.S. Olympic team. And she has a modeling contract. She also has ties to the U.S. beef industry where she tries to peddle dead animal parts to adolescent and prepubescent girls/ice skating wannabies. She has a "fun & games" corner on the beef industry's website, recipes that include beef on her official website, & when girls email in asking for her dietary tips, she's always sure to mention beef protein for strength and energy in addition to fruits & vegetables. She may be outwardly beautiful at the age of 21, but I think her earning extra cash of the backs of suffering and dead animals is UGLY. She's my nationality and ethic group, but I will NOT be rooting for her in the Olympics.
