Lindsey Vonn tore her ACL in a recent crash that required her to be airlifted to a hospital and says she's planning to compete in next week's Olympics.

Good Lord.

And she already had a knee replacement not too terribly long ago, right?

A beast such as her needs no tiara and invisible plane.

I just hope she doesn't end up suffering an Alex Smith type of injury. His leg is messed up for life.

And people would never stop showing footage of her wiping out to end it all in an Olympic bib.
