Q: You talked about the most “marketable” players but I want to know what NFL team has the “hottest” overall Athlebrity lineup?

Delinda: That question is almost impossible to answer. Each team has it’s own unique flavor. However, as far as Athlebrity appeal goes, my pick would be the Arizona Cardinals. Wide Receiver Larry Fitzgerald has captivated me since he was drafted in 2004. His long sexy clean dreads are a perfect compliment to his smile. Add to the mix that he’s not only one of the nicest guys in the NFL, but he’s buddies with super-fine Alan Anderson, and I’m sold.

Kicker Neil Rackers won the honors of being the NFL’s sexiest man in 2005, the first kicker to win this award. Proving he is indeed the hottest kicker in the NFL, on January 1st, 2006, he kicked his 40th field goal of the season, breaking the NFL record of 39. The shoes he wore and the ‘record setting football’ made their way into the Hall of Fame. Is it any surprize that ESPN named hottie the Most Valuable Fatasy Football kicker of 2005? Not only does he have the best legs on the team, but the sexiest baby blues I’ve ever seen.

Someone else making an Athlebrity impact on the Cardinals roster is sexy beast Edgerrin James. James, aka the “Edge” was in a September 2006 FHM article about the success of University of Miami alumni in the NFL, titled: “University of Miami Hit Squad. The Hurricanes are Taking Over the NFL. Deal with It.” In the article, James said: “We have a little slogan at UM. When you leave the locker room, you say you’re going to “hit, stick and bust dick.” I wonder if he’s talking about leaving the locker room before the game or after…regardless, he can hit, stick and bust dick all he wants, because last June hottie donated $250,000 to the University of Miami. Prior to accessorizing the Cardinals, Edgerrin played for the Colts. In June, the Colts’ entire offensive line filmed a new commercial, funny thing is, Edgerrin made his way into the commercial-even though he was no longer on the team. Last March, hottie signed a four-year $30 million deal with the Cardinals, and is worth every penny. Giving him Athlebrity credibility, Edgerrin also enjoys showing his teammates a good time. Prior to training camp kick-off, Edge took his boys to a strip club. According to the article in ESPN magazine, carloads of Cardinals hotties caravanned to get to the bar, where, as luck would have it, the table dances were free all day. “You just feel better when you play with people that you can hang out with.”

Kurt Warner established himself as an Athlebrity years ago. He is best known for kicking ass and taking names while playing for the St. Louis Rams where he won two MVP awards and led his hotties to a Super Bowl victory. On February 14th, cupid delivered this treat to the Cardinals for a three-year deal. Warner remains the most accurate quarterback in NFL history, with a career completion percentage of 65.7, and even got mad love from William of the Black Eyed Pea’s, who was sporting Warners jersey while performing during the pre-game show against the 49er’s on September 10th.

Another hottie is Robert Griffith. His Athlebrity resume includes modeling and acting…his Bad Boy clothing ad appeared in Details, Vibe, Source and Rolling Stone. He even made an appearance on the Young and the Restless. Hottie hails from my hometown of San Diego where he earned a degree in electric engineering from SDSU. I’m gonna need some serious help with my wiring, as Griffith is active in tae-kwon-do and he can kwon do me anytime he wants. I can’t be 100% certain it’s Griffith filling in those Bad Boy shorts (above photos) but I’d definitely like to see him wearing them when we grapple.

And of course, the prettiest stud on the team is super hottie and daddy-to-be Matt Leinart. And if you just said ‘Matt who”, you’re on the wrong blog.

Debbie: My pick for the hottest NFL team gives a whole new meaning to “fantasy football.” The luscious San Diego Chargers. They have fresh hot talent, mad sex appeal, marketable players, altruistic spirit, and most of all a high voltage roster that keeps my juices flowing by feeding me with electrifying hot pics. This team has me all revved up like the energizer bunny. Their Athlebrity appeal keeps me going, and going, and going…After quite a bit of research, I determined that this team had the highest percentage of players with at least one thing about them that fit the criterion for being on the D&D Hot List. Each and every one of these sexy beasts has something special about them, but I couldn’t possibly give you the rub down, I mean run down, on each one. So I thought I’d make it easier by breaking it down into “parts” and pointing out the players with some of the best features.

“Top Guns” title goes to defensive end Shawne “Lights Out” Merriman. He racked up major Athlebrity points with this quote, “The (defensive backs) played exceptional. When you have both sides playing like that – up front and behind you – it’s going to be tough for a team to win.” All I have to say is I want him playing “up front and behind” me with the lights out!

According to mlive.com’s Fantasy Football Guide, “Nobody even comes close” to their #1 ranked tight end #85 Antonio Gates, and I must agree. He wins the title for Best Smile. He even likes to show off his pearly whites while he’s on the playing field!

Hats off to the the hottest playing piece on the field. Tender young San Diego Chargers’ quarterback Philip Rivers (17) is hands down the finest. He’s my pick for best “pretty boy” good looks. He’s oozing with that fresh, young, sex appeal that makes any woman want to be his mommy! With cheekbones reminiscent of a young Elvis Presley, surfer tan skin, blonde hair, blue eyes, and hunky broad shoulders…mm…mmm…mmm!

And now, the biggest influence on my choice for hottest NFL team, and the winner of the “Overall Hottest NFL Athlebrity,” Running Back LaDainian Tomlinson (21). Tomlinson has proven himself worthy of the title as the NFL’s best player and for me, THE hottest player this 2006 season. He is often to referred to as “LT” and sometimes as “Lightning And Thunder.” Already proving his title in the first game of the season, “LT” uleashed his storm as he ran for 131 yards and one touchdown as the Chargers shut out the Oakland Raiders for the first time since 1961 with a 27-0 victory. This Athlebrity has it all; gorgeous looks, perfect bod from head to toe, huge entertainment value, and in addition, he continues to do great things in the community through the Tomlinson’s Touching Lives Foundation. Of course one of the main criterion for making Athlebrity status is your marketability and LT definitely makes the cut. This hottie is gorgeous, fun to watch, and does great things on and off the field.

Now I hate to do this, but I must to mention that linebacker #53 Steve Foley almost ruined it for the team. It’s tough to have a #1 Athlebrity team who ALSO has a banned Athlebrity, but I’m gonna have to do it. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m on your side honey. I don’t think you deserved to be shot, and for that I’m outraged. Yes, you committed a felony DWB (Driving While Black) and that can get you in big trouble in San Diego – especially with a white girl in the car! But really now, the fact is you were caught with a hoochie in the car, possibly under the influence, and now you are getting tons of negative publicity AND you’re out for the season on the “non-football injury reserve.” You know darn good and well that you are in clear violation of rule #6- being caught driving under the influence with a hooker in the car AND rule #10, not maintaining any of the criteria for making the list. Oh no, unh unh–don’t even try to talk your way back on the list – I ain’t even hearin’ it.

Thats it for today. As Always, thanks for reading. D&D.
