Camilo Villegas Cover of ESPN "Body" Issue

[sean_miller]

This really didn't need an nsfw warning - I knew there'd some homoerotic photos in here somewhere.

[Judah Ben-Hur]

I don't get it. Losing your lunch? Burning your eyes? That guy has an awesome body, and one I'm sure all of us would gladly trade for. He is in amazing physical condition and that alone is admirable. I don't mind seeing a mostly naked man on the cover of a magazine as long as he is in good physical condition.

You might want to send him a "Tweet". Hey, you never know.

[Williamevanl]

Lol!
He's amazing and has a awesome body and you don't mind seeing a mostly naked man as long as he is in good physical condition?

I''ll never grow up enough to not laugh at that.

[Koth]

Lol!

I can appreciate the work it takes to maintain a healthy physique. The same way I can appreciate Utley's putting, or Furyk's bunker play.

He has obviously put a lot of work into being healthy and having a good physique. "But he's a MAN... eeewwww!" I'll stop now so you can continue giggling like a little school girl.

Your tastes do seem to cover a broad spectrum.

Seems like y'all are making a big deal out of nothing. It's just a picture. Quit being homophobic, it just makes you look insecure about your own sexuality.

[BallStriker]

Damn...it is simply ridiculous how ripped he is......wonder what his body fat is -- about 2%? Kudos to Camillo as he obvioulsy has one heck of a work ethic....I imagine this picture isn't going to hurt his action with the ladies either.....

While there's undoubtedly a bit of that going on, I will also point out that I think female bodybuilders look pretty gross too.

In other words, I think you can think this photo is a bit "gross" without necessarily being homophobic. And FWIW, the thing that bothers me the most is that his head still looks Photoshopped on. It's such a different color.

Well, I didn't think I was homophobic but the picture is just......gay. Sorry, had to say it. The guy can do what ever he wants and and if he wants to "pose" like that then it's his business. But you can't deny the obvious!

OT - Nice start by C. Lee yesterday. I was hoping he would rebound for you guys when the playoff's started and it looks like he has. And now Wilson gets a chance to show his stuff before a national audience. Show his stuff as in pitching, not in a Villegas way. That would be just awkward for everybody.

Hey man it's OK, nobody's judging you. It's 2010, and in this day and age, nobody should have to hide in the closet. I for one, applaud you for coming out.

How is the photo gay? Because he's a man who's naked?

Are you naked when you have sex with a woman? Oh shit, you must be gay! This thread is just really disappointing.

QFT, I understand how that can be unappealing

Cliff pitched a gem yesterday, it was fun to watch. The Rangers didn't get the publicity they deserved this year, C.J. Wilson is a strong lefty that has really transitioned well from a relieving role to a starting pitcher. He proved that with today's performance and hopefully the bullpen can take care of the rest.

IDK if your a Twins fan, but I'm rooting for them as well. I hate the Yankees :) lol

[ohiolefty]

Other than Serena Williams, those other pictures of dudes are UGLY. Diana Taurasi? No thank you, that dude can beat me in basketball...that ain't cool, bro!

pfthhh!, yea whats so gay about a completely naked ripped guy bent over and posing with a putter. Nothing! That's what I say.

Koth, this is one of those threads that I actually share with other people so that can laugh too. :) *I'm doing that now*

It's got absolutely nothing to do with his physique but the position he's in and that weird facial expression he has....

I'm in aw of Bruce Lee's physique but I don't want to see the guy naked, bent over with nanchucks.

I agree...his body looks strangely out of proportion and his head does look wierd.

I don't enjoy looking at a naked man, and I am homophobic? C'mon now.

It was an observation. I wasn't singling YOU out.
