there have been other female athletes on the show, Shawn Johnson, Kristy Yamaguchi. Both won. Kristy was an easy pic due to her gracefullness from her skating, but Shawn was stocky, short, and not your "typical" female shape, but she still won. *I* feel, Hopes attitude towards any criticizm was her downfall. She got suspended from a soccer team for critisizing the coach for not playing her in a game the team lost, and she was was telling these judges to kiss her ass before they even scored her performances. She WAS good, she did improve, but she still wasnt up the caliber of other dancers, and yet felt she was entitled to higher scores. dont forget, half the scores that sent her home, came from the viewing audience. I felt bad for Maks, he is an amazing dancer, and just once, I would like to see him win!
