I had the biggest crush on Shawn Johnson as a kid.

I just think it's interesting what it says about our current society, College sports and the media.

Orrrr she was just that much better than her peers at her sport?
I see a lot of female winners on the list above her. I didn't watch her games besides the lsu game but it wasn't really fair. I haven't seen many athletes dominate like she did.

Dominique Moceanu was my crush.
Dominique Dawes wasn't bad, either.
