A lack of dignity...

April 13, 2006 12:12 PM

Sports Dignity (Or, rather, the lack thereof.) Alas, sometimes our athletes are just too caught up in the moment to realize what they're doing. Sometimes unfortunate things happen. Sometimes they suffer great pain. (Ugh.) ~NSFW~

Curiously, this post ties in rather nicely with madamjujujive's post about The Penis Project.

Now onto the Breast Project to even it all out.

The one with the matadors checking out that guy's package with great concern is strangely touching.

Not enough matagoring, sez I.

But then again, there's never enough.

Alvy last night I was watching a news program on a Spanish language station (I don't speak spanish, but I have a deep appreciation for the under-clad buxom female anchors) and they had a puff piece on a child matador. One of the freakiest spectacles I've ever encountered. Along with that show Cero En Conducta which to a non-Spanish speaker is wonerfully surreeal.

I don't get this one. In fact, I don't get a lot of 'em.

Though they do remind me of dickout rules in golf...

Speaking of sports and penises, is it in you?

I didn't get that one, either, klangy. I studied it for several minutes trying to figure out what I was missing.

What would sports be without the streakers?

Sports is an excuse for men to touch each other.

You know, though I agree with the assessment of the this ad, I think that Basketbawful guy is a little cock obsessed. It's like those tootsie roll commercials where everything they think they see becomes a tootsie roll except we're talking dicks rather than candy.

The site seems to prove the theory held my many Americans - that American sports are less gay.

I don't get this one.

Is that Tanya Harding?

Two words, b_thinky: professional wrestling.

The defense rests, your honor.

There's only so many "Haha his penis is hanging out!" pictures a guy can take. For me it's apparently 65 or so. How many of those are there? And after a certain point I began to question those who had made the effort to scan, upload, and propogate the spread of these pictures. I guess everybody has their hobbies.

It's Tonya Harding doing community service.

Isn't it time for matadors to start adding a few extra stitches in the crotch of their pants? I mean, that's just bad tailoring.

Tonya's full day.

Say what you will about Tonya Harding, she's got spunk.

Having your dick hanging out accidentally is one thing, but this guy (is that Kenny Rogers?) appears to wacking off. WTF?

Either this is the only duplicate, or my brain only picks out the images it likes.

psmealey; I think that's the first happy ending for the Yankees since 2000.

jonmc, I saw a puff piece about the child matador on an English-speaking channel a few days ago. He doesn't deliver the death blow, which I found very disappointing. Any child can run in circles. How many can get a sword up to the hilt in a bull's neck in one clean shot? Heck, at the bullfights I went to, the adult matadors were sucking it up at that, too. Amateurs.

I can take a few dozen pasty white buttcheeks. I can stare at penis all day long. God help me, I can even take Tonya Harding. But those BROKEN LEG pictures! Gah! Anyone who thinks nudity is more damaging than violence ought to take a gander at this set.

Even odder than the 'penis hanging out' pictures are the ones of women's underwear in such sports as ice dancing where women's underwear is expected to show.

At least one of these is not actually an athelete, but someone who poses in sports gear for an audience... (Although, last time I checked, he listed "athletic build" in his profile.)

I've seen a bull ram it's horn in a matadors ass at least 3 times on film.
