Wow! Stellar contributions of late.

uh the homoeroticism of the wrestling one is certainly intentional. it's pro wrestling, come on now
― elmo argonaut, Monday, 28 April 2008 16:10 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah but we don't have a intentionally homoerotic sports imagery thread. Also, it's more likely to be lol homophobic humiliation, surely?
― Noodle Vague, Monday, 28 April 2008 16:15 (sixteen years ago) link
haha well the subtext is analingus, so eroticism is implicit i think

oh boy, this reminds me. i was sending out invitations to my book launch party to some magazine editors at people and us weekly, and accidentally attached the wrestling/tongue/al-franken photo instead of the invite jpg. OOOOOPS...

"accidentally"
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 29 April 2008 12:37 (sixteen years ago) link
Ha! That "wrestling/tongue/al-franken" is a local guy, and the original SI photo held Excelsior spot on the bulletin board at work for years.
It's major wrestling country around here, and nothing is less popular with the photographers than the typical "assholes & elbows" grappling shot.
― briania, Tuesday, 29 April 2008 12:50 (sixteen years ago) link
Because, lets face it, there's no way to shoot wrestling that doesn't make you look like Tom of Finland:

Hahaha! I have been wondering for god knows how long what he and people who knew him thought of that shot, so this might be as close as we'll get.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 29 April 2008 13:54 (sixteen years ago) link
Well, I know him pretty well, but not well enough to ask him what he thought about the shot. I can testify that the homoeroticism is purely unintentional.
I showed your post of it to somebody connected with the athletic department team one time, and the conversation went something like, "OMG! LOL! Where did you FIND this!?" "Well it's from SI, but it's on this bulletin board I sometimes post to." (Sideways look) -- "Wait, why are you on some gay bulletin board?"

Hey, I titled this thread the way it is for a reason.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 29 April 2008 14:17 (sixteen years ago) link
Anyway why are you on some gay bulletin board etc.

Perhaps not unintentional.

wait, so the pro wrestling one where the guy is forcing his opponent to rim his tag-team partner.... is that like uhhh their regular special move or just a one time thing or wtf???????

I have seen limited amounts of WWE, but I have never ever seen anything like that.
