Stephanie Rice is back in the news again.
After the sexpot crashed out of the Olympics after all the controversies she's started, she now reveals that one of her training regimens involved...
... a stripper pole.
Men, I'll let you process that one for yourselves.

While everyone is bemoaning the first medal-less Olympics for the US Boxing Team (Protip: Boxing has lost most of it's credibility in this country over the last 20 years, and now basically represents occasional PPV and ESPN-filler material!), the Canada-USA women's soccer classic has had more controversy!
Turns out that Melissa Tancredi curb-stomped the head of the USA's Cali Lloyd, without foul, penalty, or red, during the match.
And Canada might be in more trouble: FIFA's investigating the aftermath of the match, where Tancredi is claimed to have said the following:
"When asked what she said to Pederson after the call [that led to the
penalty], she said: “I hope you can sleep tonight and put on your
American jersey because that’s who you played for today. I was honest.”"
I hope Tancredi is ready for a long vacation. That's at least two sending-off offenses the ref ignored.
