I realize that there aren't that many soccer fans in North America, but I simply HAVE to start this topic...

There are so many athletic and goodlooking soccer players in Europe that even for the non-sports gay guys out there, you should start following simply to catch a glimpse of these cute guys in shorts!

Some of my favourites...
1. Michael Owen
2. David Beckham
3. Marc Overmars
4. Dennis Bergkamp
5. Alan Shearer
6. Ditmar Hamann
7. Raul (Gonzalez)
8. Philippe Cocu
9. Harry Kewell
10. Shay Given

These are only the ones I can name at the top of my head... For those of you who aren't familiar with these players, start searching for pics of them! -You might end up a lifelong soccer/football fan!

You are very right about all the hot football studs...even my partner (a non sports guy will stop and watch for a few minutes to see which guys are cute) and dont you just love when they do all that hugging and kissing after a goal....
Other on my list:
(1) Robbie Elliott Newcastle
(2) Alan Shearer Newcastle
(3) Robert Lee Newcastle
(4) Paolo Maldini Ac Milan
(5) The Everton Boys
-- Jesper Blomquist, and Niclas Alexandersson
(6) Stefan Schwartz (got a hat autographed by him)
(7) totti As Roma
(8) Rafael van der Vaart - Ajax
(Well okay anyone on Ajax will do...I think it is a requirement to be good looking to be on this team)
(9) Bergkamp
and finally, and he is mine...Marc Overmars...

I would like to add Luis Figo to your list!

Oh yeah, Luis Figo--handsome, hirsute and rugged...BTW, he's the only one I know.

:cool:

I've wanted to learn more about this player since France won the World Championship:

Ed Pope

I never knew he was American.

I think this belongs in Hot Jock Talk, so I'll move it there.
