Hottie Vonn rules the slopes

We have written before about our love of Lindsey Vonn. However, she is not just a looker. Vonn is clearly the queen of the slopes!
After winning the World Cup downhill race and overall title, Vonn won the final Super-G race of the season. Apparently the only thing she can't do is win the slalom.

ESPN says no to boobs

Apparently ESPN is fine with putting a pregnant Candace Parker on the cover of its magazine, but doesn't like it when boobies are used to promote its radio stations.
The Bristol boys have caused the cancellation of 950 ESPN's Battle of the Babes. This March Madness style tourney was connected to the GirlsofPhilly.com website (NSFW). The tourney, which is basically a ripoff of the bigger and better Bigger Dance put on by Seattle's 950 KJR and Mitch Levy, was shut down after only one round of voting.
It seems strange as the website is a regular advertiser on the site. So, ESPN is OK taking cash from the site but doesn't want them involved in promoting something on the station?

Preggers Parker smiles big on ESPN cover

Former Vols superstar Candace Parker lights up the cover of ESPN The Magazine with her killer smile. She also certainly fills up the cover with her belly. The PR for the issue promotes it as the first cover featuring a pregnant athlete. Is that surprising? Unless LeBron, Kobe, Peyton or Manny are slated for some Sweedish operations I don't think we'll see it again soon.

Some think the pic is great. But Parker (who is the sister of Toronto Raptors guard Anthony Parker) has taken some heat for the pregnancy, which came before she married the T-Wolves Shelden Williams, who once played for the hated Duke University Dookies. Even some thought she should have better planned her baby around the WNBA season!

In other, sports mom's news, the New York Times has a feature on USC cutie Brynn Cameron, who is the baby mamma of the Cardinals' Matt Leinart.

Hot or Not: Federer's girl Mirka Vavrinec

Tennis superstar recently announced that his girlfriend Mirka Vavrinec is pregnant with the couple's first child. In publicizing the announcement DeadSpin.com (always a great read) ran the headline: "Roger Federer and Dowdy-Looking Woman to Become Parents."
The pic they have of her is not the best, but ... what do you think?
Did Federer procreate with someone beneath him? Is she actually a hottie? Or is she more of a hometown cutie? Or is she, as DeadSpin kindly puts it, a "dowdy-looking woman? Let us know.

Några nya möten i mars

Under veckan som gått blev det möten med några nya människor. Till att börja med tog jag några bilder av den "gamla" fotbollsstjärnan Tina Nordlund som nu har sadlat om och jobbar som Yogainstruktör. Ett intressant möte då Tina genom sina egna erfarenheter har stora möjligheter att hjälpa andra att hitta de verktyg som man kan behöva både inom idrotten och i " det vanliga" livet utanför.
Hennes berättelse kommer i nästa nummer av Fotbollsmagasinet Marta.




Dagen efter var det träningsmatch för ett kombinerat AIK/Väsby-lag mot Enköpings SK på det mörka Skytteholm. Att ta spelbilder under dessa mörka kvällar är nästan omöjligt och jag hade redan bestämt att inte ens försöka. Men då AIK hade några nya spelare i laget blev det några bilder på dessa. Efter Tomi Maanojas olyckliga skada i mathen mot Assyriska hade AIK snabbt hittat en ny andremålvakt, bakom Daniel Örlund, i grannklubben Vasalund. Milos Petkovic som tillsammans med målvaktstränaren Lee Baxter bildade målvaktspar i matchen. Roligt för Milos att få hålla nollan i premiären och dessutom göra ett par kvalificerade räddningar när AIK vann med 3-0.

Den andre nye på planen var Toni Koskela som tränar med AIK under veckan och nu fick chansen att visa upp sig i en match. Toni, som spelat för Molde i två säsonger, har inte spelat en match på nästan 5 månader och jag tror att han ska bedömas lite efter det. Av det jag såg, en halvlek, gjorde han inte bort sig, men det är upp till ledarstaben att värdera hans styrkor mot de befintliga. Men det var kanske inte det som tränastaben fr v Andreas Alm, Chrsietr Swärd, Mikael Stahre och Lee Baxter funderade över vid pausvilan.
Under pausvilan presenterades också AIK:s nye juniortränare Jeppe Mauritzson på innerplan och han har ett tungt arv att förvalta då det under lång tid varit närmst självklart med AIK:s Juniorer i spelet om JSM. Under de nya tider som råder är det också ett mer uttalat mål att slussa unga talanger vidare från juniorleden via Väsby och till AIK . Så Jeppe behöver all lycka till som publiken bjöd på.

Up and Comer: Pretty young actress hits mark, stops puck

Katelyn Pippy has earned some sort of fame with her role on the Lifetime series Army Wives. Of course, no men watch that show and especially not that channel. However, it should be noted the show does feature former JAG hottie Catherine Bell and her amazing rack and Desperate Housewives co-star Dana Delaney, who did something for me back in her China Beach days.

Anyway, Pippy is cast as Delaney's daughter on the show. She is certainly a pretty girl and, as a teen, is a definite up and comer.

It should also be noted that she is a pretty good hockey goalie. Check out this DeadSpin story for more.
