CONFESS!!!!! Olympic Style - who do you have an olympic crush on?

[LynneSin]

ADMIT IT, there's someone in the Olympics you're just drooling over.

Me

Alexander Popov, the 4 time Russian Swimmer. But he's not doing to great this year :cry:

[terrya]

1. Mine is Ian Thorpe.

Have to go outside the United States for this one, but I drool over Ian. Just incredibly sexy. :-)

[LDS Jock]

4. he is hot

love the black lyrca thingy he wears for swimming too

[AmandaRuth]

8. oh yeah!

he is multi-generational too! my daughter and I both think he is total eye candy.

[Lavender Brown]

19. Hello

[terrya]

20. OMG...thank you.

Gorgeous, gorgeous man. Nice picture. :-)

[Lavender Brown]

22. I aim to please :)

He is :smoke: hot.

[ronnykmarshall]

25. Mouth drops to floor

eyes bug out with loud "auuuuuuuuuuuugha" sound!

[supernova]

21. Thorpedo!!

:D

My God, he's good looking! :wow: :wow: I'd love to wrestle him and lose! }>

[LynneSin]

26. You know he wears like a size 13 shoe. You know what they say about a man

with big feet?



Big Shoes

:eyes:

[redqueen]

29. True... that's a myth

But I think tests have indicated that the girth of a man's fingers does bear out some correlation.

[mrboba1]

32. the girth of my fingers has something to do with my

shoes?

:shrug:

[redqueen]

36. Yeah... that's the ticket!

;)

[GregW]

39. Actually ... they're size *17* feet

Or as they say in other water sports ... 'flippers'.

[terrya]

44. I thought I read that. No comment necessary. :-)

I love you sig line pic. I had a good chuckle over it. :-)

[bicentennial_baby]

Yep...It's all about the Thorpedo!

Mmmmm...so hot!

[LDS Jock]

42. Ian Thorpe in underwear

[terrya]

46. Yes, he does have it.

Where to begin? Very nice muscly legs. Nice ass...

[tigereye]

49. oh he is so beautiful.

oh. Sigh.

[LDS Jock]

48. warning.. hot Thorpe picture inside

[terrya]

51. "Is it getting hot in here", Terry asks?

My God....

[redqueen]

56. His face looks like my friend Kevin's

Kevin's a thin dude, though.

[mrboba1]

2. Natalie Coughlin

Whew!!!

[Beer Snob-50]

3. Amanda Beard

Very cute! GReat atlete

[tigereye]

6. Michael Phelps

wow. That long lean torso and really tall. All those swimmer guys! (hosing off self with cold water.)

[ronnykmarshall]

12. mmmmm ! mmmmm!

That's some torso on Michael!

[tigereye]

47. I mean how could anyone's torso be so long!

well swimmers bodies do get pretty elongated with all that swimming, but. :)

[ronnykmarshall]

5. See this thread.

[LynneSin]

7. you can have him - he's too 'Wholesome Middle America" to me

probably will find out he's a Bush Supporter

[ronnykmarshall]

9. I don't know about that.

I don't know how wholesome he'd be with his twin brother in the mix.

:evilgrin:

[coloradodem2005]

10. Amanda Beard.

They were doing a bit on her and I was just staring in awe.

[LDS Jock]

11. Marian Dragulescu

Romanian gymnast.

[redqueen]

14. That's my answer too

Wonder if it's hard to be a hot guy named Marian.

[LDS Jock]

18. maybe in Romania

Marian doesn't sound so sissy. Sorry in advance to any Marians who may be reading this post.

[redqueen]

23. I'm sure it doesn't

but he's hot all over the world, not just in Romania. :)

[LynneSin]

15. gymnasts are built nice but they're always like 5'4 guys

and I'm 5'10. I'll stick with Swimmers.

[redqueen]

24. I'm only 5'3"

so for me they're perfect. :)

[LynneSin]

28. You can have the gymnasts, I'll take the swimmers

deal?

[redqueen]

31. Sounds good to me!

:9

[LDS Jock]

34. I'm 6'1

but I'll take that gymnast.

[LynneSin]

41. You're a guy, that's a different story with the men & women gymnasts

but for a 5'10 gal like me with a 5'3 guy....just aint happening

[ronnykmarshall]

30. Sweeite you are on a roll today.

That's what a PC is FOR! Locating pictures of hot buff men!

[LDS Jock]

40. I am to please

and a little eye candy helps make the day a whole lot brighter

[ronnykmarshall]

64. How did you miss this ONE?

Holy beaver shot, Batman!

[Rockholm]

74. It's What's for Dinner.

[russian33]

13. Svetlana Khorkina!

[LDS Jock]

16. i think she has an eating disorder

OK, probably all female gymasts do but she is VERY thin. Her thighs are just bones. She is beautiful to watch perform but I just wish she would eat a few cheeseburgers. Think Kleeb could hook her up with some?

[russian33]

52. She gets like that before a competition...

..read an interview with her in a Russian paper, she says 'I melt like a candle' when I get into intense training, and nerves kick in...she posed for Russian playboy, let me tell you...there's meat on those bones! :P

[mrboba1]

17. really?

She looks a little unhealthy to me - a little too thin...

but maybe not.

:shrug:


Some of those gymnists worry me with their "thinness"

[malachibk]

67. Are you serious?

She comes across as SO nasty and unhappy and MISERABLE. And she's lost about 20 lbs since 2000 games and looks so very unhealthy. NBC always shows her sitting alone, lips pursed, squinting.

To each his own, I guess!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

80. Yes, she does not look healthy, either physically or emotionally

She looks worse than other times I've seen her.

[truthspeaker]

27. Loudy Tourky

[truthspeaker]

33. Kerry Walsh

she's 6'2"!!!

[GOPisEvil]

38. Not much ugly on her partner, Misty May either!

Misty and I could look eye-to-eye. :D

[Beaverhausen]

35. Aaron Piersol- he's my new husband

I can't post pics though...can someone help me?

go here BUT they give results there so be warned:

http://sports.yahoo.com/oly/swimming

[redqueen]

45. Good choice!

He's quite good looking. :)

[Beaverhausen]

59. 6'4"- 175 lbs and look at those eyes! He is so HOT!!!

But he's mine so you can't have him.
You can have that other guy behind him. He's cute too!

[redqueen]

63. 6'4"?

What is it about tall men? I'm short, but still... !

[Beaverhausen]

85. another nice pic of him here

I will learn to post them one day..

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/040819/photos_sp/mdf665040

[Lydia Leftcoast]

79. Aaron is the one who caught my eye

And Ian Thorpe is a close second.

Both of them are young enough to be my son, though, so you can have both of them if you wish, Beaverhausen.

[Beaverhausen]

83. They are both younger than my boyfriend's son!

but since Aaron is my husband in my dreams it all works out.

[truthspeaker]

50. Abby Wambach

[GOPisEvil]

53. The women's soccer team is replete with hotties!

Hubba freaking hubba!

[GregW]

55. Aussie pole vaulter - Tatiana Grigorieva

Unfortunately, she didn't make the team this year :(

[redqueen]

57. Oh my she is cute!

*trying so hard not to comment on that last headline!*

[VOX]

71. Wow! I mean, WOW!

There are so many bad pole-vault jokes here, but I'll skip 'em altogether.

[TXlib]

77. She can vault my pole anytime...

Nobody else was taking the cheap shot, so I felt compelled... :evilgrin:

[arwalden]

58. Greg Louganis (Still!!)

[ronnykmarshall]

60. mmmmm hmmmm

I hugged him once. That man has muscles in his back that won't quit.

[LDS Jock]

62. Louganis pics

[LynneSin]

65. It's so NOT fair - I had a crush on him too

:cry:

I wonder if I could convince him to come back to my team

:cry:

[LynneSin]

66. I still remember this dive

And he still came back to win the gold

[ronnykmarshall]

69. Ouch!

That was awful.

[terrya]

78. Greg has aged very nicely. STILL looks damn good.

Good choice. I always thought he was sexy.

[arwalden]

82. If I Wasn't Already Married... I'd Marry Him In A Heartbeat. But...

alas... I am married... so we'll just have to share him as our boy-toy.

-- Allen

[kariatari]

61. don't have one. but if i were a guy it'd be mia hamm.

she's so freakin' awesome. i wanna be her.

[Taverner]

68. Jenny Finch

[ronnykmarshall]

70. Dan O'Brien

1996 Gold Medalist

[Terran]

72. You guys can keep all those skinny swimmer twinks

Shane Hamman (weightlifter) is IT, man! WOOOOOF!!!

[LynneSin]

73. Is that a tattoo or a beard on his neck

:shrug:

[Terran]

75. It's a braid

He braids his beard--an interesting little eccentricity that could be very useful on certain occasions ("C'mere you big lunk!"). :evilgrin:

I understand he's a good athlete in several other sports, AND that he can do back-flips. Can you imagine it...?

Another pic:

[TXlib]

76. Carly Patterson

Well, pretty much all the female gymnasts... They're all babes. And... they're gymnasts! :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

81. Orange jumpsuit alert!

She's 16.

Cute, but 16.

[redqueen]

84. She's from around here!

Local gal... we're so proud. :)
