Alex Morgan: USA’s World Cup Crush
Alex Morgan has clearly captured the hearts of our commentariat over the course of the 2011 Women’s World Cup. With good reason. Morgan has been called Team USA’s super substitute throughout the tournament. At just 22 – her birthday was July 2 – the former Cal Golden Bear is youngest player on the USWNT roster.
Earlier this year, Morgan was the top pick in the Women’s Professional Soccer draft. So if you want to watch her play football after Sunday’s World Cup Final, you can check her out with the Western New York Flash. (Notice how she’s listed at both 5’7″ and 5’8″ on the same page.)
Morgan is an active Twitterer (verified) and has a Facebook presence. The Sports Bank and Frat House Sports have sufficient galleries of US soccer’s newest star. Oh, and you can stop point out the fact that she wore a pink bra this week. She is aware.

July 15th, 2011 at 1:38 PM

i’ve always thought women’s volleyball was the cream of the crop. women’s tennis is decent, but not on volleyball’s level. watching sports where they have to run around and expose their lack of athletic ability (basketball, soccer, track n field, etc) makes me want a sandwich.

I just can’t get over the massive thighs on (most) women athletes. Just not attractive
but you don’t get that in volleyball b/c the majority of them are too tall for the stumpy thighs. and it’s like they all have great ass to stomach ratios.
July 15th, 2011 at 1:53 PM
Love the comment under the photo.
I have to give it up for Morgan’s eyes. But I too would prefer solo. I think she would squeeze me like Xenia Onatopp.

Majority of them though swing for the other team. Can’t allow a small minority to overtake the majority that are not good looking. Also tennis probably should between soccer and swimming in my ranking.
July 15th, 2011 at 2:02 PM
Flip softball and swimming.
Softball has just enough good looking girls so when combined with the ogres they average out to middle of the road.
Swimmers all have shoulders as broad as a billboard, and every single swimmer I knew was slightly … off. I think it’s from all the chlorine.
