Lolo Jones Twitter: Eric LeGrand Challenged Lolo to Race, Lolo Responded With Clueless Trash Talk

Jones obviously didn’t know who LeGrand was – his profile says as a defensive tackle for the Buccaneers. Of course, it also features two pictures of him in a wheelchair. LeGrand, realizing it was probably an honest mistake, didn’t take offense to Jones’ answer.

Does she respond to every person who challenges her to a race? I imagine that’s a fairly common occurrence for an attractive female sprinter. If LeGrand is actually a professional football player, its probably just some innocent trash talk. Instead, it just looked incredibly offensive. If only LeGrand had waited a week to challenge the Olympian – a huge sports fan like Lolo Jones would definitely catch Outside the Lines feature on LeGrand this Sunday morning.
