Three events. Three gold medals. I was news, big news, in the sports world.

We can't all win Olympic medals. Even I never won one.

Life magazine ran a page featuring me and three other girls that was clearly the precursor of Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues.

Yes, we are going to have a heavy sports emphasis, ... We want to have news from every level -- from the pros to Little League.

I was all in gold sequins for Million Dollar Mermaid, 50 feet in the air.

No, I don't really watch the news. In some ways, I'm very unaware of the latest happenings in the world. I kind of leave it like that because sometimes it's better not to know.
