All-around gymnastics champion Nastia Liukin and swimmer Natalie Coughlin, who won six medals in Beijing, tied in voting for sportswoman of the year.
Erin Popovich was selected paralympian of the year and the U.S. men’s volleyball team, which won a gold medal in the aftermath of the attack and killing of coach Hugh McCutcheon’s father-in-law, was team of the year.

Oh, man, is this thread gonna be fun.....
This man deserves to go celebrate.
He’s got to upgrade his bonging technique.
There is no way he’d get a gold medal doing it the way he was doing it. It looked like he was sucking on a lemon.
My brother would have gotten the gold medal!
Can he bring his bong to the award show?
It’s either a fake pic, or the Olympics are fixed. No way a pot smoker could win 8 gold medals.
What do you mean? I must have missed some news.

I think its photo shop.
uh, sure a pot smoker could. The NBS is FULL of tokers who are also some of the best athletes.
I just read it. What a fool.
“U.S. Olympic Committee’s sportsman of the year on Thursday.”
Will he be presented with a gold plated bong?
DUDE,Knock it off, He is just building up his lungs...Laughing hysterically....
Or maybe pot smoking isn’t as bad as people would lead you to believe....
Or any number of things really that don’t demean his accomplishment.
Or now we know why he really eats 12,000 calories a day.
Bang a gong
Get it on
He should buy a new hooka to celebrate.
High Times Athlete of the Year as well.
