Has anyone see their spot on the NBC olympic channel??? It's really cool (at least I think so). There's a video of Aaron asking her to marry him and then a segment of of them talking about who is the fastest runner and why, and then they "race". I really liked it!!

P.S. oops! I spelled Sanya's name incorrectly in the subject line. Sorry!
 
So now between them they have an NCAA football title, a Super Bowl win, and an Olympic medal? Allsome.

Gotta be one of the best, if not the best, examples of combined athlete success by a couple in recent memory.
 
My favorite parts:

- the pic of Ross in his Texas uniform

- Sanya: [may be paraphrasing] I also went to the University of Texas.
 
"The 40, I got her," Ross boasts. "The 100, I got her. The 200, um, I don't know. The 400, she will kill me."
The Link

He's being modest. He could probably beat her if it was a mandatory pre-nup agreement...a must have.

If he were smart, he would get a lead in the first 100 and stretch it out on his second 100 and get his eye on her. Where is she? Match her speed and stay relaxed. She's gonna move on the 2nd 100 corner - figuring she has the advantage running that corner.

Now this could go either way at this point. She could have been keeping it quick and steady, but saving a big kick in the last 80 meters. If Aaron is smart, he doesn't get cute, he lost ground in the corner, but he wins in a sprint.

If he gets cute and baits her into a sprint, she may beat him when she sticks her tongue out at him and takes off in world class form. If she can get him to chuckle, that musclular response is a deal breaker. She could beat him.
