Unless you follow USA Softball, most of you probably didn't even know to vote, or that there was a vote going on for someone to be picked as Sportswoman of the Year. But if you actually did, I hope you voted for Jessica. Granted this is based off of sports performance, and ya ya we all know that great new rookie in the WNBA Candace Parker, or the soccer great that is known simply as Marta, but if you haven't heard about who Jessica Mendoza is...you're definitely missing out. Yes, she's a softball player...yes...she's a GREAT softball player...and you know what...she's probably the MOST Passionate person I know (not personally haha)!! I've never seen someone who exudes such a passion for a single sport. If you have ever watched a video about her talking about Softball, talking about the girls who play it...I mean WOW. You can hear the love she has for this sport the second the first word comes out of her mouth. Her face simply lights up talking about it. She's a great player and she doesn't even know it. Nor, do I think, will she accept it. It's hard to try to explain someone's passion without having anyone hear it, see it, or feel it for themselves...but let me tell you...I surely hope you voted for her because she is definitely a TRUE All-Around Athlete. I feel she is more deserving of being Sportswoman of the Year than the next. So I hope you voted...cause I sure did! I can't say it's not too late to vote because the polls closed yesterday. Shucks. I will keep this short because if I were to try to explain to all of you exactly why Jessica deserves this...it'll take up a lot of time haha. I won't waste any of yours if you feel I have thus wasted your time right now! But anyhoots, fingers crossed that she won it!
