The young lady was NOT kicked off the Olympic team, and will still have a chance at winning a medal. This article was about a silly contest that AOL is having concerning who people think are the "hottest" athletes. She did not make the final four. Nevertheless, we have morons who did not bother to read before commenting either moralizing that she got what she deserved (even though the Plaboy thing had NOTHING to do with the voting) or crying that the morality nazis have ruined the US chances of a medal (when the contest has no bearing on who competes). Please read before commenting.
