Man Lab Showdown: Adriana Lima vs. Candice Swanepoel

Our third Man Lab Showdown is likely to be the best one we ever do. It’s a battle of the generations as we pit two Victoria’s Secret Angels against each other. In one corner is Adriana Lima who has been an Angel for the last 11 years and still looks amazing after giving birth to a daughter in 2009. Even at the age of 30, she’s still one of the top models in the world and one of Victoria’s Secret’s top girls. In the other corner is Candice Swanepoel who is in only her second year as an Angel. At 22, she’s already found herself near the top of the modelling world.

Wednesday Link-Off: Quickie

It’s an abbreviated version of the Wednesday links thanks to yesterday’s minor WordPress problems. To make up for it, here’s Candice Swanepoel.

You that stereotype about Americans being idiots? Turns out that Newsweek’s research shows it might just be true. (Newsweek)

We may never really get a look inside the NFL Combine but this might be the next best thing. A documentary about Western Mustang John Surla takes us inside CFL e-Camp. (55-Yard Line)

Last weekend, TSN2 cut away from March Madness to cover women’s curling. Suffice to say, we’re officially a laughing stock. (The Big Lead)

After the jump, the Madden Madness bracket, some WWE stories and Sheen does Kimmel. Continue reading

Even fully clothed, Candice Swanepoel is mindbogglingly gorgeous.

It’s not quite how it things were for me covering OUA football, but here’s a look at the job sideline reporters do. (Fanhouse)

Tiger Woods’ column in Golf Digest is no more. Jim Windolf laments the loss of Tiger’s epic columns and other contributions to print media. (Vanity Fair)

After the jump, Hedo’s new dance, all the Tostitos, and the Secretariat dance. Continue reading

Late Night Link-Off: All Good Things

Welcome to the last set of late night links. I’m retiring them after tonight. So to close out this short-lived linkdump series, here’s Candice Swanepoel.

Sadly, Candice isn’t on Twitter. However, there are plenty of other good looking women for you to follow. (Pop Crunch)

After the jump, the meaning of your fantasy woman, important advice for guys and what makes the British newspaper industry great. Continue reading

Sunday Link-Off: Code Breaker

Alright, after the slightly failed late night link experiment, how about I make it up to you with Candice Swanepoel.

I mentioned this in the last edition of the Power Rankings. It’s the unwritten code of hockey finally transcribed. (Down Goes Brown)

The record for the longest hockey shootout was set last week by the Germans. A German league shootout went 21 rounds before they could figure out a winner. (With Leather)

On the one year anniversary of the Tiger Woods crash and associated fallout, here’s a look at some of the events leading up to the crash. (Vanity Fair)

After the jump, a Grey Cup conspiracy, the best inventions of 2010 and Jordan tells LeBron what he should do. Continue reading

Sunday Link-Off: Too Damn High

Since I massacred yesterday’s entertainment links, how about I make it up to you with Candice Swanepoel?

The Dongslinger saga carries on. Now AJ Daulerio is fielding questions from journalism students over it. He handles himself well, though. (Sports Journalism)

The WHL isn’t what I would call “minor league” hockey but sometimes they dream up gimmicks like a standard minor league club. The Saskatoon Blades are wearing denim jacket-style jerseys for an upcoming game. (Sportress of Blogitude)

And speaking of minor league gimmicks, the KHL has a new idea to promote the league. They’re holding a contest (in conjunction with Playboy) where female fans send in swimsuit pictures and write why they love their KHL team. Makes perfect sense to me. (Puck Daddy)

After the jump, Top Gear finds a new Stig, the 100 best mustaches in sports history, and the Rent Is Too Damn High. Continue reading
