COLOMBIAN WOMEN RATE THEIR FOOTBALLERS

jenni_blogFurther to my piece back in the summer, when the Colombian women rated the U-20 National Teams for attractiveness, it seems they have done it again! This time they rated the most attractive players in their own league.
And they came up with these 8. Not the usual 'top ten', but 8 players whom the women consider the most attractive in the Liga Postobon A. There are some interesting details to come out of this.
Who is No. 1?
Well, according to the women of Colombia, it is:
#1 Omar Perez of Independiente Santa Fe
A close-up pic of Omar:
Omar Perez was born in Uruguay. He is 35 years old. His youth team was Central Espanol.
#2 It's a tie between two goalkeepers.
#2(a): Faryd Mondragon
Faryd is Colombian. He is 40 years old. He started out with Deportivo Cali, and has recently returned to that club.
#2(b): Sebastian Viera
Sebastian plays for Junior in Barranquilla. He is 28 years old and hails from Uruguay, where his first team was Nacional.
#3: Ignacio Ithurralde
Ignacio has just been signed for Millonarios. He is 28 and from Uruguay. His youth team was Defensor Sporting.
#4. Pedro Franco
Pedro is only 20. His youth team was Millonarios and he is with them still. He is Colombian.
#6: Alvaro Dominguez
Alvaro, a Colombian by birth, has recently returned to play with Deportivo Cali. He is 30 years old and his youth club was also Cali.
#7: Giovanny Hernandez
G10 was born in Cali, Colombia, though his youth team was Boca Juniors de Cali. He is 35 years old and currently with Junior of Barranquilla.
#8. Jonathan Alvarez
Jonny is a 24-year-old Colombian, plays for Atletico Nacional, and his youth team was Envigado.
That's him on the right. ;)
Okay, so what I find surprising is that out of the 8 players, 3 of them are Uruguayan! Also, 4 of them are over 35, and, in fact, all but one are over 24. But what I find most interesting is that 4 of them have ties to Cali. One was born there (Gio Hernandez) and the others all played for the Deporcali team at one time or presently.
And I wouldn't necessarily agree with these choices. They are also all from the 'big' teams in Colombia. It's as if nobody bothered to check out the smaller clubs. But rating appearances is always so subjective.

Tja..... my taste is too special for the 'normal' women.

Date: 2012-02-13 06:54 pm (UTC)What are these women thinking???
And I thought it was weird that none of them are darkish boys.
In a country where there are so many really hot, great looking darkish boys, they couldn't find any to vote for?
Not to mention they obviously didn't even look at the 'B', where Julian Lalinde is, also Kevin Piedrahita and Uniautonoma is a team with a fantastic-looking darkish boy. One day I will find out his name. :(
Okay, so Pedro Franco is a real cutie and getting sexier with every year that passes. And you know I love Geo and he is for me very cute, but not maybe one of the sexiest. And I would say Jonathan Alvarez is pretty cute, and Sebastian Viera kind of sexy. But...there are better ones than some of the others. And where is Gerardo? Oh my god, what are these women doing?
I think most people don't look at more than the most popular clubs and choose someone from there. :(

Date: 2012-02-13 07:25 pm (UTC)We as white women have a totally different view on these guys. We can like the look of a guy without looking for the colour! Maybe I'm wrong but it's my view!
And! It's always a personal view. You cannot judge taste but you don't have to agree!
I know you love Geo and he is for sure one of the very good looking guys.

Date: 2012-02-13 07:41 pm (UTC)And you are right about white women! We can think of a hot darkish boy as like a 'boy toy' and there is no social barrier!
Personal taste is very individual for sure. ;)
Geo is very special for me. ♥
