Making Your Tuesday Better - First Of Many

The young man Making Your Tuesday Better this week is...Al Horford! Now, I was going to save him for a special occasion. But hey, the beginning of the tournament's this week - that's special, right? Therefore, in honor of it, here's Gator!Al.

Now, Al Horford is gorgeous. This is obvious.


I mean, the eyes, the lips, the bone structure...he's got it all.


Enough so that even pretty girls should probably not take pictures with him.


And he's, you know, okay from the neck down, too.


He has his flaws though! For one, he can look like an enormous fourth grader. (And we're going to leave the ears alone for now.)


It can be argued that the perception of his attractiveness is increased in relation to those he usually takes pictures with:






But now that he's gone to the NBA, it's clear that he can be hot with the best of them.


It was so sad when he and the other boys left. It was obvious how much they loved their team, UF, and each other. The press conference had its ups and downs:



Oh, God, Al. Me too. *tear*

Making Your Tuesday Better - Le Suisse, J'y Adore

This week's attractive young basketballer is...Thabo Sefolosha! Why? Why not?

The man known to some as "Swiss Mister" is actually one of my favorite players. I have a soft spot for skinny point-forwards (See: Barnes, Matt), and also for, well, pretty young men. Observe:

Maybe he should be the one played by the dude from Prison Break, eh, Barnes?


He was drafted at the same time as another attractive young man, Tyrus Thomas.

Photographer: Closer, I say!
Thabo: Uh...*shuffles* Like this?
Tyrus: grumblegrumblegrumble. *shuffles*
Thabo: How is-
Photographer: *click*
Tyrus: Gay.


Back to the topic at hand, Thabo is pretty.



I think the best part of being a Bull, for Thabo at least, has got to be the knowledge that he will always be the prettiest one there.



I mean, no offense to Tyrus, but he's got a bad case of the Gangsta-Face. Yeah, Tyrus. You're tough. We get it.

Tyrus: Man, I'm going to get Frenchy-cooties on me.
Thabo: Swedish-cooties.
Wait. Cooties?
Tyrus: Whatever.


Lest you think Thabo's only got it going in the face, voici:

Ohhhh-la-la, Thabo! J'approuve.
