Los Angeles Strippers

[mraynrand]

Er... I mean Clippers, as in cheerleaders. It's pretty amazing to go to an NBA game these days and know there is soft core porn available on the sidelines and during timeouts. Good stuff. Kid in front of me: "Daddy, why are those girls naked?"

Maybe they were getting ready to play the Miami Heat?

Clothing sortage?

Whoa! I say WHOA, Camel!

I am very glad that I tried out a long-haired blonde type from SoCal before I met my wife.

I now know that those girls are hot, fun to be around, screw like crazed weasels and are absolutely bat-shit crazy and will destroy your life if you give them a chance.

The more you know!

I had a similar experience with a model in Chicago back in the day

Some great genes going on there to the east (RH side of photo).

How much time would a fella waste watching basketball!?

inadvertently, you've stumbled on the point. While I am not a prude, I really am tiring of the linkage between sports and extraordinarily scantily clad/unclad women. Call me old school or whatever, but if we no longer see it as any bit shameful to exercise our voyeuristic tendencies, can we at the very least acknowledge that the mixing of soft core porn and sports isn't a good thing for society? Isn't it at least a little embarrassing to have neo-octogenarian Brent Musberger drooling over a beauty pageant winner/girlfriend at the national championship game, overtly treating her as the prize to be won by successful quarterbacks. Of course, there's a lot of truth to that, but do we have to nakedly promote it. I know the typical counter argument: if you don't like it, don't watch/attend/participate, etc. I suggest that avoidance is no longer possible, and that is the point of this thread. And the fact that I don't really much like it, even though as a male with probably too high testosterone levels it can be compelling in a autonomic reflex sort of way.

You should moonlight as a writer for Hallmark as a Valentines card writer.

Gotta agree on the point though. Took my 8 and 6 year old sons to a Timberwolves game and this picture tells 5% of the story....the dance moves they do in those outfits are straight out of the strip club across the street. My 6 year old, who thinks he can get any woman alive to be his "girlfriend", was stunned and silent.

I love you darling, let me convince you with my hormonal titer.

Does the game compete with the strip club? Did you pay for your T-wolves tix with soggy dollar bills?

It's not just sports, Rand, it's everywhere. If you're waiting for a bus over here, chances are you standing next to a life size poster of a woman in her underwear promoting perfume / clothes / a movie / ...

BTW, the top story on SI.com this weekend was "SI Swimsuit: Kate Upton is your 2013 cover girl".



She's quite the athlete.

Interesting topic.

So do you guys lower the volume or change the station when erection pill commercials come up during NFL game?

Geez, those drive me nuts.

First, I can't imagine not having a hard-on so turgid every morning that I can drive nails with the mfer.

Second, I know they're ads, but sorry, if you can't get up for the MILFs they use in those commercials, you are dead or gay.

Third, my kids are too young to get it but at some time they're gonna' ask "Daddy, what's erectile dysfunction?" But it will come out: "Daddy, what's a reptile combustion?" or "Daddy, what's electile eruption?" or something similarly cute as shit that makes me laugh when I should be having a teachable moment on the evils of advertising and the decline and fall of Western Civilization.

I'm all for sex and all, but in the right context. It's not just sports, though, the whole porn thing has really become mainstream and I don't know if that's a good thing.
