Another Lukas

Lukas Spendlhofer, of the Inter Mailand soccer club, Austria.

And just 'cos he's here doesn't make him gay, gay-shaded or even jolly.

Earnest

Mostly, I don't find soccer players sexy.  Their shorts are not short enough and they're too baggy.  Sorry; there it is:  I'm a perve.

But I'm prepared tomake an exception for these blokes.  Are they brothers, I wonder?

American Football College Hotties

I don't follow sports.  Well, except for the blokes.  The games don't interest me.  I couldn't tell you what the critical differences between soccer, footy (Ozzie rules football), rugby league, rugby union or American football are.  I can tell you what their gear looks like, though!

This player caught my attention because of his name: Ryan van Rensburg.  A classic South African name.  Only he's betrayed his heritage (Skaam!  Skandaal!  Sies!) by giving up rugby and taking up American football when his family emigrated from SA to the US.

He's kinda tasty, no?  I wonder whether he can still speak the taal.   I've forgotten so much myself, after all these years.

I heard about him and got the picture here.

World Cup

Quelle blague! Efferybotty iss zo stupide! exclaimed the countess as she pushed the maid into the cupboard and threw away the key.

OK. Each to his own. But really! A bunch of blokes wearing shorts too long and too baggy, in a game where a one-all score is exciting? Sorry, me darlin's, it's borin'. Footy and rugby players are sexy to look at. They wear short shorts. American football players wear those wonderfully revealing lycra tops and bottoms. Though you can never see what they actually look like because of their helmets. Sort of like Transformers the Movie. But soccer? C'mon. Get them out of those 1920's baggies into something sexier. And I'll think about watching. Or at least, think about thinking about watching. I mean, why else does one watch sport, except for the beaut bods? As this article by Myf Warhurst (a woman) says, rather funnier than I could.

So instead of a pic about the world cup, I'll give you this one of a beauty in Rio. I like his smile. And his bod. And his Speedos. Who needs overclothed world-cuppers, nu?
