Lindsey Van not Lindsey Vonn

[Rambo]

Does anybody know anything about this?

Lindsey Van (born November 27, 1984) is an American ski jumper who has competed since 2002. She won a gold medal in the inaugral women's ski jumping event at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2009 in Liberec. Van has a total of eight Continental Cup victories in her career.

Lindsey Van is a plaintiff in a lawsuit against the organizers of the 2010 Olympics; she and other female ski jumpers claim that their rights have been violated because only male ski jumpers will be permitted to compete in the Vancouver Olympics.

Reid is kinda cute, Jerome is so-so, Van needs make up, a better night's sleep, and an attitude adjustment.

Might just be bad lighting, too.
