Mrs. Richards-Ross is one of the favorites in the 400 Meter to get the Gold as she is married to Former Hookem' Horns All-American and 2-Time Super Bowl Champ Aaron Ross of now the Jacksonville Jaguars (Ross took the Money and rightfully so as he has 2 Super Bowl Rings and now its time to get Paid for playing on Sunday plus the G-Men drafted Prince Amukamara of Big Red Lincoln to play sooner rather than later).
