Goal-den Girls

Thought I’d use this space to announce that I’ve been swept up in the national crush on Megan Rapinoe.

Right back atcha, Megan.


Let’s also pay tribute to her teammates who appeared in this year’s swimsuit issue.

Abby Dahlkemper.

Crystal Dunn.

And Alex Morgan, who made her third appearance.

I tend to overlook athletes on this blog, but Alex has made a good name for herself.

This is an interesting shot from 2014… I’ve mentioned the smattering of SI photos in recent years that feature no faces, only bodies. But usually the focus is the boobs or the butt or, in rare cases, the vajazzle.

But I’m not sure what the deal is with her (admittedly lovely) back.

Anyway, go get ’em, ladies!
