Our lives are so hectic and full, and we have a big family right now.
In my opinion, Jackie is the greatest female athlete ever.
I'm for a drug-free sport and always will be.
A lot of women say they love being pregnant, but I wasnt such a big fan.
I like cooking - I make a good stir-fry and the family likes it when I make stewed chicken and macaroni and cheese.
I'm a jock and I'm an athlete, and that's what I love to do.
I did pretty well at the Sydney Olympics, but those were my first Games.
I've set no world record.
When I'm home, I'm relaxed.
The ultimate would be to compete in a couple more Olympics, hopefully break some world records and wind up my sports career with a couple of years in the WNBA.
I will continue to express the fact I am for a drug-free sport and always will be.
You forget that sometimes people are out there to get you - they don't even have a reason
I'm an Internet junkie.
We realized that the only persons we can truly trust in this world is each other and our families.
