Oh screw it! Just put all the NFL players on to the next round. Can we say "Ay papacitos!"

The nominees:

One item to note. The new soccer phenom from Brazil, Alexandre Pato at 18 y/o, is the youngest guy entered into the Qualifying Rounds. It will be interesting watching this guy mature.

Voting ends Wednesday at 11:59pm. After Soccer will be the final Qualifying Round - Rugby with defending KOTH champion Sean Lamont.

Am I the only person who voted for Kaka? I mean come on people... Even before you see his picture you know who have to throw a vote to Kaka. Kaka! Kaka! Kaka! GOD that's fun!

[Edited to Add]

After seeing a picture I can totally see why MDG included him. Beautiful plumage.

Oh gosh maddog. I don't know if I want to join in that chant. Whew! I just had a vivid image of my nieces & nephews when they were still in diapers way back when...They'd often run to my sisters & say exactly that! ...

Ok back to topic...The soccer players are quite the hotties!

How, in all that is good in the world, did Reggie Bush NOT make the cut? Especially with the picture below:

Andres Iniesta of FC Barcelona just found out that he didn't make it to the qualifying list for soccer. Maybe he should have pulled that trick earlier...

I agree with you, John King, about Reggie Bush. That's amazing (his physique and his omission from this list).

???. Uh, Reggie Bush wasn't omitted from the list. He was in the football qualifying round. He just didn't garner enough votes to advance to the tournament.

OMG... you know what you should do... considering there are some really hot guys that didn't make the cut... you should have a BEST OF THE REST tournament... and then the winner of that can face the winner of the KOTH for Ultimate Supremecy.

Doesn't poor MDG have enough tournaments to run as it is?

Why aren't my votes saved? I am constantly having to re-vote.

Maybe it has something to do with those "cookies" on your computer? Just a guess. I always get the totals when I look and a "change your vote" link. I never have to re-vote.

That would be the Soggy Seconds tournament

And no, I'm not doing it!

The Final Qualifying round has been posted. The men of Rugby should be a very interesting and intense race.

Well if that doesn't make me feel like a kid in a candy store then nothing will!

I love Sean Lamont's ass. It is on my top ten list. And the rugby group has been the only group where I would say 90 percent of the guys are hot.

Now back to my rant, how did Brady Quinn beat Reggie Bush? Is Reggie Bush accused of making homophobic remarks? Does Reggie Bush have a face like a horse?

I'm sure either one would be less than thrilled about being drooled over by a bunch of gay men.I don't find Brady Quinn attrractive at all.

If you look at the full results I think you'll be able to figure it out. And I voted for Reggie Bush, by the way.
