Footballer Friday: Nemanja Vidic

Today's Footballer Friday is Nemanja Vidic.

Nemanja is a defender for Manchester United. I don't like United, but I love his hot ass. I know many people won't agree with me on this one, but he just does it for me. Plus, he's basically the best defender in the world.

How can you not love a goofball like this?:

Also, did I mention that he is Serbian? And loves peace? I love peace, too! And Serbian athletes! (How you doin' Novak?) Funnily enough, Nemanja's wife is named Ana Ivanovic, like the tennis player.
I know it probably makes me a bad Arsenal fan to find a United player hot, but I JUST CAN'T HELP IT.

Footballer Friday: Michael Owen

Today's footballer is Michael Owen. He plays for Newcastle United, and formerly played for Liverpool and Real Madrid.

He is my boyfriend.

No seriously, I love him. If you asked me in 1998 who I was going to marry, I would have replied, "Michael Owen" without any sort of hesitation. This was due to the World Cup in France in 1998. I was watching and rooting for England (obvs - but, oh, the pain this has caused me over the years) and I saw Michael Owen and I fell in instant love. Michael Owen fueled my burgeoning Anglophenia. I don't care if he is always hurt and not getting picked for the England team anymore, I will always love him.

More of Michael:

(The above pic is circa 1998. HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE HIM?)



I could post like 1,000 more pictures, but I'll stop because I have to go write "Mrs. Michael Owen" all over my notebooks in sparkly pink glitter pen. (Sorry, Louise - aka the Real Mrs. Michael Owen.)

Footballer Friday: Iker Casillas

I present to you the first in an ongoing Friday series, Footballer Friday:


Iker Casillas, Goalkeeper, Real Madrid.

Iker recently equaled the record for appearances by a Real Madrid GK at the age of 27. Hot AND talented? Sign me up. I personally can think of no better way to start posting pictures of hot footballers than to start with Iker. Everything good in life starts with Iker, really.

Gimme more, you say? Your wish is my command:
