BUILT FOR WHEATIES BOX and Lolo's low low

Shawn Johnson and LoLo Jones typify the Olympic experience....

Shawn's face was built for a Wheaties box but without GOLD it probably wasn't going to happen....and then on the final event she balanced her way into immortality.

The world is her oyster and as long as she passes the drug tests she can name her price.

AND THEN THERE IS LOLO JONES

Oh poor Lolo....two hurdles away from having her glamorous mug on the cover of numerous adult magazines.....two lousy little hurdles and then wham and her world crumbles and at the age of 26 we probably have seen the last of her.

That pack of smokes that fell out of her shoes might explain something.

ONE RISES THE OTHER FALLS AND WE EXPERIENCE THE ULTIMATE OLYMPIC CYCLE

Maybe Shawn will hire Lolo to handle her press releases.....or drive her to banquets.
