Ben Cohen against Despatie? EVIL

I'm stil voting for Alex and his assets:
http://www2.xfreehosting.com/gay/stars/sta...espatie/ad.html

VOTE JOEY!

Why? Becuase he was the source of this much fun last summer:

High Comedy!

That, and I heard that Javy Lopez doesn't wash his hands after using the bathroom. . . then he makes you sandwich.

Golly, I hope nothing happens to any of the contestants from here on in...

A Javy Sandwich sounds great to me! Vote Javy!

Two things here:

1) After he makes you that sandwich, then he goes home to his wife. Joey is still an enigma wrapped in a question.

2) Shame on you G4G - You had a great deal of fun with that Joey thread. How can you forget all of the magic you shared? Who can forget such classics as:

NKOTB

He-Blossom

and

This is it. (This is it)

Vote Joey!

'Cause he's got THREE arms!

guys, i am officially a traitor.

i went strictly by eye candy and although i am a former swimmer, and know both marcus and lenny - who are two of the nicest human beings you could ever meet ( vs. gary hall and a few others) - i voted against both. i hang my head.

as an aside, i always wondered about marcus...

I did have lots of fun in that Joey thread, 'tis true, but I have loved Javy for years. Besides, Marat Safin has already lost and if Javy goes (he's trailing right now, I believe) then I will have nothing left. Alas!!

Joey is very attractive, but there's only one butt in the world like Javy Lopez's. Best Butt in the major leagues and perhaps in all of professional sport!

The pick between Markus Rogan and Frederic Michalak was difficult. But, in the end, Rogan's shaved pits won me over.

Some very tough choices. But of course, I had to vote Joey and I'm hoping he pulls off the upset win. G4G, I fogive you for voting against Joey...you traitor wink And a good ass does not translate to victory. Just ask Mr. Brees.

Looks like Despatie is in yet another close race...his third one in a row.

Jeremy Bloom has taken an early lead on his march to a repeat title. I wonder if I done the KOTH last year, would Bloom have been on his way to a 3-peat?

Lenny is in the lead. Woo Hoo.

And Bryant....How could you vote against Lenny! I'm telling wink

laughed my ass off mariner! you got me!!

i dont know how i could vote against lenny either but i guess it goes to show how shallow i can be huh??

Saying Javy's ass is "good" is like saying Shakespeare's poetry is "alright." Please.

Meanwhile, I don't understand the fuss over Jeremy Bloom. Of everyone left in the competition, he's one of the least attractive guys in the bunch, if you ask me. I know he's got a nice body, but his face looks so young and his body so overdone that he puts me in mind of Little Hercules. (See related thread in Non-Sports Related topics.) Okay, he's not really that freaky looking, but I honestly don't get it. :confused:

NOTE: Elite Eight Programming Change: I will be out of town (flying down to LA to see the Ellen show!) tomorrow and back on Wednesday. So, the Elite Eight match-ups won't be posted until Wednesday afternoon or evening. Because of this, the Elite Eight poll will run from Wednesday (or when I get a chance to post it) until Friday night.

And look for me on TV ...of course you won't know what I look like, but just look for the cute Asian guy wink with his red haired partner! Since they film tomorrow, I bet they show the show on WEdnesday? Maybe I should have made a "MDB says vote KOTH" shirt!

Anyway, I return you to your regulary scheduled KOTH programming.

Oh, and VOTE JOEY!

Gaga, I've always thought Shakespeare sucked. See example below. Guess that's why I voted for Joey.

Excerpted from Julius Caesar, Act 3, Scene 2.
Friends! Romans! Countrymen!
Lend me some money, cause who the hell needs your ears!
I come to bury Caesar, not praise him.
He's been stinkin' up the joint worse than Javy Lopez!

P.S. Vote Joey. Cheers!

Ya bastardized the Bard and ya bastardized the vote. Tisk tisk. First Javy was traded from the Braves and now this.

What is this world coming to???? eek! :confused:

It's Joey's world, you're just living in it.

I am slightly surprised to see Jan Michael Gambill keeping it really close in his match-up with David Carr. Nobody's really talking about him but he's quietly defeating his opponents.

Michalak is making a move on Rogan closing the gap to 3 votes.

And Ben Cohen's trailing? That's not right!

Lenny has taken the lead over Ausmus.

Joey continues to lead Javy

Egads--all my votes but one went to the guys who are behind. Of course, being behind those guys is one reason I chose them. Maybe it's not so bad having so many others chase the other guys...more meat for me (and you to, baby G...remember, Javy's got enough to share).

My votes broke 3 ties in my favor...

I just realized my statement is redundant...it's not like my own vote would NOT be in my favor.

[ April 04, 2005, 10:57 AM: Message edited by: dfwAggie99 ]

...only 4 of my picks are leading. frown

Wow, even Joey can't believe he's still ahead!

So true!


VOTE BEN COHEN!!!


So handsome... so F-ING handsome!

In some type of wife beater type t-shirt.

All wet.

Say \"Hello\" to my new wallpaper!

That smile.

One hairy bloke... with a capital FUR!

Putting on cool green jersey.

Ben-Ben he's the man. If Alex wins...I can't think of a rhyme

Vote Ben Cohen

It's a sham!




(I voted for Alex, actually ... )

Sterlingman, you have quality taste!

He is HOT!

Oh wait ... I didn't vote for Alex. I just looked at the pics again and I was thinking that Alex was the cute basketball player, Wally Whatshisbucket. I actually voted for Ben!

The great evil is pitting Rogan against Michalek. They should be in the final four -- with Alexandre and Jeremy. That would be one of the world's great sandwiches -- a dagwood of sorts.

I agree and it was Rogan's smooth pits that decided it for me. Speaking of sandwiches, I'd LOVE to be the middle guy between those two.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heheh ... well, I ended up going with Fred ... but only because ... well ... because I couldn't resist his affection for his teammate (fantasizing about being same, I suspect). As for sandwich meat ... I think any one of them would delight me.

I don't know HOW we missed these. Here are a few more reasons to vote Joey!

At the piano

Give it Time, the photo changes ever few seconds

And if you want to watch the commercial:

Joey schills for Visa

Vote Joey because he's got a Visa Card and can buy you things!

I voted for Javy. Joey is nice, but Javy is just...special. So now my question is: will me and the other 23 people who voted for Javy be kicked off the board? Or will we just be beaten by Married Lady and BPT336? eek!

[ April 04, 2005, 03:08 PM: Message edited by: metromathis13 ]

We won't beat you metromathis13. That's not something we're into. But we might become the snarky Grammar Gods and shame you into correcting your grammar with a very well used RED pen. eek!

Corrected it should read: "will the other twenty-three people who voted for Javy and I be kicked off the board?" And the answer still is no. But I wonder how on Earth I'm going to bribe or seduce enough people to get you into an Ivy League institution with such poor use of the English language! We so need you to attend a reputable institution for playing Division I soccer. :cool:

(patiently waiting for Jim at Outsports to announce to all how many hours it took him to edit my recent article -- or that English is not my first language - or someone else to find a grammar mistake I just made wink )

In any event: VOTE JOEY!!!!

Is your man leading?

I'm mildly surprised that Michael Owen has taken a 7 vote lead over Andy Roddick.

Boller has gained a lot of ground on Zito.

Aumus has taken the lead back from Krayzelburg who led earlier this afternoon.

And why is Ben Cohen still trailing Despatie :mad:

For those of you who haven't voted yet...why haven't you?

I probably won't have access to a computer tomorrow so I'll be on pins & needles wondering if my boy Joey can hold on to his lead! But I'll always have Married Lady & BPT to do the cheering for me.

V-O-T-E!

btw, if there are any ties, we will have a vote-off once I return.

[ April 04, 2005, 09:48 PM: Message edited by: Mariner Duck Boy ]

I wouldn't kick Ben Cohen and his furry chest and abs outta my bed, but I'm a Despatie guy all the way. I've always voted for Alexandre and stressed when he was trailing in the last round. I'm not gonna give up on my guy now!

Thanks bro

Yeah Ben's got that great combo of muscles and union rugger beef that I love.

Yeah not alot of guys (and girls) would - so why is he not getting votes?

Ben Cohen for Presidente.

Vote Ben Cohen.

I'm not surprised.

That is so totally Photoshopped!

No one's blood looks that bright after a fight and when photographed (she said with a little too much knowledged in her voice.) eek!

Hmmm ... I think JIP needs to post a pic or two of Joey Harrington as well!

Only one race seems to be shaping up as a cakewalk: Jeremy Bloom is having a relatively easy time with Wally Szczerbiak. With 68 voters already having gone to the polls, the rest of the races stay close, with Barry Zito and Kyle Boller tied. Even Javy and Joey--both with very vocal supporters--are in a close contest.

It'll be another late night waiting for the outlying aarea precincts to tally their votes. wink

Well, you should. Posting Joey photos makes your whole day go better.

Yet ANOTHER reason to vote Joey!

Sure. Yeah.
Here, Joey Joey Joey Joey Joey ... Here, Joey Joey Joey Joey Joey ...

Gaga, can't you see what your unholy dedication to Javy Lopez has done?? You are no longer "sweetness and light" or whatever it is you say you are.... instead you have become this embittered vile shrew hellbent on violence! eek! If it were May 8th, I'd almost call you Mom! eek!

Remember: Joey = Love

Vote Joey!

Hell hath no fury like Gaga4Gaby scorned.

ooooooooooohhhh, MDB is gonna be sooooooo mad on you for that post! You don't mess with another man's rhubarb.


Vote Joey, because mean people want to hurt him and he should be cared for and fondled like a baby seal.

You've heard what's happening to baby seals in Canada, right, Married Lady?

Just asking ...

Do I want to know what's happening to baby seals? Is it going to upset me? I worked for the ASPCA and I treat my cats like children, so I might not want to know.

The original line was "cared for and fondled like an 8-year old boy at the Neverland Ranch" but I thought that might be too much.

You'da been better off at Neverland. You don't wanna know.

Hey, look, it's Joey Harrington!

G4G, don't you feel better? See, posting a Harrington photo is like having a great martini.

Vote Harrington!
