Leryn Franco is just your run-of-the-mill javelin thrower/pageant queen/model with her own calendar. But during the Beijing Olympics the 26-year old Paraguayan became so much more to the American people; she became our javelin thrower/pageant queen/model with her own calendar. So, my fellow Americans, it is with a heavy heart that I regret to inform you that our favorite Paraguayan athlete (sorry Jose Luis Chilavert) was eliminated from the Olympics this morning after failing to qualify for the javelin finals. Take all the time you need.
Ms. Franco became the object of our attention after she was noticed by NBC cameras during the Parade of Nations at the Olympic Opening Ceremony.

See #6 for possible re-evaluation due to additional evidence.

A parody of the tendency for attractive female teachers caught in dalliances with teenage boys to be acquitted of any crime, while the ugly ones always get convicted. Guilty/Not Guilty is now standard Free Republic shorthand for Pretty/Not Pretty. ;)

It is the verdict that the poster would give if serving on the jury where she is the defendant, regardless of the evidence... more for instinctual reasons.

NOT GUILTY by any stretch of the imagination. Could she rate a 10.5!
Up to now, I have not watched even 15 seconds of the Olyimpics, but I am up to change my behavior over a woman like that! (looking for tv guide......)
