Jushua Anderson doing 48.13 in the 400m hurdles


Hmm, ya think maybe he's pleased?


Looking pretty in USA singlet


Even prettier assuming the position...to start that is


Come on Danny, gee us kissee


OMG. Think he deserves more than a kiss for showing us all that

France's 1500m guy Mehdi Baala could fill that bill


All that and he's still not afraid to wear short shorts




Something to look out for at Daegu.

Celebration ready


May have to be careful with those glutes on the way over the bar


Have great flight

We are Italian and we are 18!

Assuming there is no test to assure one does not have kangaroo blood, Aussie Mitchell Watt is a heavy favorite to win the long jump in Daegu - nine days away

Youngster who appeared on the world stage out of nowhere


Already has a matinee idol's permanent shadow


Loves the pit

...and it loves him...


And I love his pits


Definitely part 'roo, Mattie is


And if track doesn't hold his interest there's always Rugby Union and a combined degree in law and economics as "fallback".

So sad for Bolt... I'm heart broken for him. But good GAWD did you see that gorgeous body!!!

Okay, what I could find so far ---


Bolt, incredulous at his misstep...


Dejected, walking back to the blocks...


Still not believing this has just happened...


Scratching his head for answers...


Checking the board to see if possibly someone else committed the error...


Accepting his fate as the field judge checks out his hot ass...

Germany's Robert Harting celebrates winning gold in the men's discus throw final at the IAAF World Championships
in Daegu. He kept his World Champion's title from two years ago in Berlin and he also repeated his
shirt ripping act from Berlin. What a hunk!

He's a beaut. Not too fond of the facial hair though.

Welshman Dai Greene brings the UK its first ever 400 m hurdle world championship medal and its only gold so far at Daegu

Ready to spring like a coil, in a heat


I think he's happy (from an earlier pic, running for the UK)


Showing his heritage, competing for Wales



Two false starts marred the race, but Greene has now become a favorite for London 2012.

LeShawn Merritt, who was able to compete in the 4x400 at Daegu due to a ruling that his suspension for taking a penis enhancement drug was an error he made because he "was thinking about having sex with a woman", made an extroardinary anchor run at Daegu to give the USA back the lead in that event.

Obviously the drug had a permanent and irreversible effect on his tongue


The penis size does look a bit suspiciously...prominent, not that I notice these things


Those drugs don't seem to have enhanced masculine behavior


Ah, for the innocence of high school youth, when you're so horny no enhancement is even thought about


A little suggestion LeShawn: there are a few million guys who would have had sex with you without any enhancement at all.

Ever think about that? Well, maybe you should.

American, Jamaican and French memories from Daegu via Italy

A memorable Italian from the 50km walk

That the Jamaican's, with Usain Bolt at anchor, should have set a world record in the 4x100 is not a great surprise

L-R, Michael Frater, Usain Bolt, Yohan Blake and Nesta Carter

But the French benefitting from a breakdown involving not only the USA but Trinidad & Tobago and Great Britain as well, was huge surprise

L-R Jimmy Vicaut, an unknown alternate, Yannick Lesourd, Christophe Lemaitre and Teddy Tinmar

Congrats to the Jamaicans. Especially hunky up-and-comer Yohan Blake

I'm still the King!

No one disputes his crown...yet, or yours as the best poster of photos on this thread either by the way.

However here in the USA we tend to have a little problem with monarchy.

But 19 yo Belgian pole vaulter Denis Goossens rules in those stressed jeans


But it's this 2004 shot of Britain's mature Nick Buckfield that leaves me stressed.

Kevin Lazas....SHIRTLESS....A LOT!!!

http://hotjocks.weebly.com/kevin-lazas.html

What a royal display: both jewels and the crown.

I like his solid build - not fat / not skinny!
I can handle the crazy facial hair - it can be easily changed!
It's nice to see a guy with a great body that isn't covered in tatts!

Italians know how to celebrate a victory.

This is the Italian 4x100m relay team winning their event at the European Athletics Championships of 22-year-olds last summer.











More photos from the event

British discus record holder and Olympic hopeful Lawrence Okoye poses outside the Big Ben to recreate the official poster for the 1948 London Olympic Games.



Lawrence last summer in the European Athletics Championships for under 23.

Okay. Mr. Okoye just made my day.

Well, him and that Italian 100m runner on the far left.

Who is this athlete on the left???

http://imageshack.us/photo/-images/64/8095131orig.jpg/

Don't know who your lucky stud on the left is, playing thumbsies with Trey Hardee, but my Italian is one of the following: Michael Tumi, Francesco Basciani, Davide Manenti, Delmas Obou according to the caption under this video of an "interview" with them. And his heavily Italian-accented English is sexy as hell.

Judging from this photo, it's Michael Tumi.

The Italian 4x100m team in Ostrava wasn't excellent just in running, posing and giving interviews, but their karaoke version of the Italian national antmem on the podium was unforgettable! Unofrtunately there seems to be no YouTube capture on that.

Here is some more viewing pleasure of Tumi especially for you, Sport!

Tumi feeling just OK (isn't he always)

and if you ever get tired of him and still have a sweet tooth for something Italian, why not try the hurdler Michele Calvi






or the 200m runner Alex Da Canal

Thank you Finneye. You really shouldn't have. I hope it was not too stressful for you to have to find those stunning photos of Tumi.

And Alex Da Canal's religion is definitely on display. (That's unusual for European men unless they are Muslim or Jewish, am I right? )

Love this photo from the Outsports story about Trackpics photos from the Euro U23 decathlon. Artem looks like the beau* of the ball whom everyone wants to take to the prom.

The camaraderie among decathletes is always markedly on display, even more so than other tracksters IMO.

*That's "beau" rather than "belle" since Mr. Lukyanenko is obviously very much male

Oh sportinlife, what an an ordeal that was - but at the same time I knew it was all for a good cause!

And yes, we Europeans often prefer to keep our religious beliefs private - unless there is a good reason for displaying it, such as need to distract one's athletic rivals... And what comes to the physical expression of those beliefs, you are absolutely right

This is Artem saying whom HE would like to take to the prom!


But I have a question for you: What is this nice catholic boy from Irleand up to with Anne and why is he scueezing her thumb?

I'd be more interested to know whether that lucky Leprechaun in his compression shorts is legal.

Brian Gregan the lucky Leprechaun who will be 22 on the coming New Year's Eve, is undobtedly legal, at least in Europe (cannot speak of all the states yonder, the legislation of which often turns out to be quite something else...)

He was extremely legal even at the Barcelona Championships a year ago

Finneye, the reference is to the bulge in his pants being a leprechaun I believe, not the actually athlete.

Let me know if I am wrong.

Best,

Drew

The reference certainly was to the little Leprechaun not the big one. But Finneye's response works either way for me since both are "legal" ; and the sexual innuendo theme was consistent.

But thanks for noticing.

iseanj, that something I think you mentioned being missed, can probably be found here

finneye your the best

It would be difficult to find a greater contrast in body type than that between Robert Förstemann and Horacio Nava. Goes to show how adaptable the human male is.
