SportsbyBrooks Update + A Male Challenge

It's that time again... My Tuesday update can be found on SportsbyBrooks. Some things featured today are Rickey Henderson's belief that MLB is conspiring to keep him out of baseball (his proof is Julio Franco), the Eagles cheerleader calendar upsets many a Puritan, Chinese outrage at a brawl involving their players and fans (a shoe was even thrown), and Clinton Portis' opinions on Sean Taylor's trial concerns. Apparently Taylor should have no fear about having his trial continued to the post-season because it happens for everyone. "They put Michael Jackson's trial back, and he ain't got a concert anytime soon."

Given the picture posted here and the fact that I have a Brooks update today, I think this is an opportune time to openly respond to an email I received on Sunday from a bloke named Jon. Hopefully this response will clear up any confusion for other mental defectives out there.

"flash, if that IS your real name, ive been reading your site and wanted to know are you into dudes AND chicks cuz you talk pretty freely about ass and tits. plus you write for that site with all the tits on it and chicks usually arent down with that. peace ~ jon ******"

Jon: No, I am not a lesbian and have no interest in being one. But if I had to make an exception, it'd be for Salma Hayek and I'd do her in a heartbeat. So why do I talk freely about the physical attributes of women? How can I write for a website that pimps hot girls with ginormous boobs and not care? How can I post the above picture?
1) Because this is my blog and I can.
2) If you've got it and wanna rock it, do it. If you don't "got it" and you try to rock it anyway, that's when you'll see me all up in arms in protest and picketing.
3) I, like most girls, have the ability to evaluate other women objectively without being burdened by the overwhelming insecurity that we might sound gay. The female body is a work of art. On the whole, if a girl is hot, if she has an impressive backside, if she's blessed with a nice rack, we can acknowledge it, envy it if necessary, and move on. I can post a picture of that girl up there because hey, she's sexy, the picture's sexy, and it relates to my update. Doesn't bother me any and it increases the likelihood that you'll follow the link. The only time a problem truly arises is when the goon that we're with won't stop ogling and/or talking about some random, hot girl. At first we can agree with him and even engage in a little conversation about it but after a while, we start feeling inadequate. It is THEN that you hear catty, bitchy remarks and get dirty looks. Most men, on the other hand, only seem secure enough to acknowledge that another guy is a) a player or "the man;" b) ripped; or c) you can see why girls like him. If these 3 responses are not available, said guy is either gay or a loser. So Jon, while it seems that you should have discovered this phenomenon before now, I guess it's never too late to learn something new. Thanks for stopping by.

As for the rest of you men, I'm issuing a challenge. A triple-dog dare even. Who is the one man (or men) in this world that you find to be truly sexy. You can comment anonymously if you so choose but somebody better have the balls to respond before I get back from lunch. Game on, boys. :)

Oh, and to you gay fellas out there, no participating. That's called cheating.

Cheers!
