The hottest chicks in England blow away the hottest chicks in the US… Why?

The hottest chicks in England blow away the hottest chicks in the US… Why?
I don’t know if that’s exactly true, but the chicks that hit the tabloids in England are always built like women and have huge cans.
The celebs, starlets, whatever in the US are always pretty faces on stick figures, trying to get even thinner. But they’re not the hottest chicks in America.

fake boobs and dressing … suggestive is not as frowned upon?
August 18th, 2009 at 8:30 am
probably not, but football is right around the corner so i don’t really care anymore.
@dirt: agree, whole heartedly.
August 18th, 2009 at 8:33 am
I’d rather see ESPN bring back either the CFL or Australian Rules Football than to air this dreck.

One of the fathers.
August 18th, 2009 at 8:35 am
they take their speeding laws seriously in Minnesota
August 18th, 2009 at 8:45 am
I’m going to take guess a few things about that first cop.
#1 – He’s scared shitless of black guys, especially big black guys.
#2 – He played hockey, but quit because he didn’t like getting hit
#3 – He radioed in that he was in deep shit nearly immediately, even though he really wasn’t
Obviously there’s no audio, but it doesn’t even look like the first takedown was necessary to me, much less the guy literally getting the shit kicked out of him by 6 dudes.

You linked to Jim Carty?!? HA! This blog is officially garbage. I hope you are better in real life then you are on the internet.

Tim Tebow?

how long until this guy’s “friend” eats him?
Hopefully before he procreates, that crocodile is huge
August 18th, 2009 at 8:56 am
That guy has known that crocodile for 20 years. I’m stunned at that.

this blog is the tits. And learn how to spell “than” when you try to insult someone

The ESPN SC update guy just likened Greg Paulus’ move from Duke basketball to Syracuse football, to Ted Williams returning home from WWII and winning MVP, and Chris Weinke playing MiLB for six years before going to QB at FSU.
What. The. Fuck.
August 18th, 2009 at 8:59 am
spoken like a “true” Sawx fan.
August 18th, 2009 at 8:59 am
It’s also a week old and about the Feagin issue, which has already been used at least once here to make sure everyone knows that Michigan is full of fail. Furthermore, the argument that Rich Rod didn’t do his due diligence when recruiting Feagin has been pretty much de-bunked here.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:00 am
What up irish, hows the beach treating you.
Navarro Bowman is going to break Greg Paulus in half in a month.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:01 am
i think he took his pink hat off as he said it.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:03 am
spoken like someone who is a bigger football fan than baseball fan.
steroids in baseball has recently taken a lot of the enjoyment out of it for me, unfortunately.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:06 am
TBL,
Please come out of hiding and explain why you would link to someone who is joyfully anti-Michigan? Is there some reason behind linking a week old story that is about topic that was already linked here and debunked? Just admit that it generates hits for you.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:07 am
Did you just change my original post?
August 18th, 2009 at 9:09 am
sup coop
August 18th, 2009 at 9:11 am
ah fudge. i tried to blockquote and it messed it up.
but yeah, i was asking whether your anger was directed at carty or me
August 18th, 2009 at 9:11 am
Hey Maggs,
Are you going to “quit” coming here, or stay here and bitch? I’m just curious. I know you’re not going to stay here and not bitch, that’s obvious.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:13 am
Merk, you really don’t understand the internet if you think that was posted to ‘generate hits.’
I posted it because IMO, it was well written. Feel free to disagree.
As a sports fan, you’re going to have to deal with people saying negative stuff about your teams.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:13 am
That Carano-Cyborg fight was 10x better than any fight during UFC 101. Actually, I’m hard pressed to remember a UFC headline fight better than that fight, in terms of energy. But I have a short memory.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:14 am
you really don’t understand the internet
it’s a dump truck, right?
August 18th, 2009 at 9:16 am
yea that michigan article was pretty lame…
michigan fans should be more worried about the fact that they have tiny children playing qb.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:18 am
You link every negative thing about Michigan you can possibly find! It is obvious you don’t follow college football as much as you follow US Weekly and what is happening with the cast of Degrassi. So why no link to the fact that an OSU recruit was busted with 20 G of pot AND was allowed to play? Were those stories not well written? It seems as though you have some sort of agenda here. Did Rich Rod knock up one of your kids or something?
August 18th, 2009 at 9:18 am
ha, reminds me of that ESPN montage in the waterboy when teams try to copycat pulling their waterboys from the sidelines but they’re all 12 year old kids.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:20 am
Drake is the new hotness, I’ve heard.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:22 am
that guy is really out of the loop with Degrassi. It’s all Wizards of Waverly now.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:24 am
Hey, whatever, man. The only reference point in that picture is David Cone and he’s like 7′3″…
August 18th, 2009 at 9:26 am
merk, as i’ve said numerous times: i wake up and open the email box and a lot of what is posted here is based on emails. does that mean we have a lot of anti-michigan fans? maybe.
if you want something posted, or the conversation to go in a particular direction, then by all means, email those links to me.
degrassi? i just did a search for it in the box at the top of the right rail, and it said no results found. but hey, continue to fire away …

Are we choosing to ignore the Jay Glazer report?
August 18th, 2009 at 9:29 am
How come the only time you post stuff about Mindy McCready is to cast aspersions on her?
What did she do to you?!?!??!?
August 18th, 2009 at 9:31 am
spencer!!!

Personally I find it a bit rich for a Michigan fan to bitch about the negative coverage of the program, when there’s a Michigan guy on staff, and Michigan was 1 of 8 teams that got a preview thus far (not to mention OSU and PSU shared one, as did the entire Big XII).
August 18th, 2009 at 9:37 am
I can’t believe you didn’t throw in that thing I sent with the hideously ugly giant Samoan shotput lady who didn’t qualify, and ended up as a line filler in the 100meter dash heats.
But you don’t hear me bitching. Oh, wait, I’m bitching. That chick was hideous.

No problem here.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:42 am
Hey Maggs. Quit being so sensitive about Michigan. Personally, I think there is just as much hate towards OSU and the rest of the Big Ten on this site and it is equally distributed. Just be happy you are a fan of a school that is good enough to be hated on. Try being a fan of the Fucking Gophers.
August 18th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Don’t forget the epic Oregon preview. That was sweet.
August 18th, 2009 at 1:38 pm
Here is some back story to the things Carty writes. Carty is a fucking moron. He is terrible at everything he does including writing.
