Indy Cover Your Heart!

Indiana Jones is back, or is he? I guess we’ll see tonight as the newest chapter in the Indy Files is released. The thought of seeing People’s sexiest man alive, circa 1998 (a good year for the Pants), on the big screen again got me thinking. When you can take Indiana Jones (the adventurous and extremely hot professor with a side of dork) and Hans Solo (the smart talking smuggler turned hero with a side of Chewie) and put them into one person – you have the man of the decade. It made me think of my top three actors, based on who they have played and whatever other criteria I want to use.
#1 - Forever and always will be Harrison Ford, as already stated he is Indy and Hans – there is no one better. He has proven himself to be hot as Amish, the President and an escaped convict. Watch your back Calista I am coming after your man… and eat a burger while you’re at it!
#2 -Mel Gibson, I immediately think of the Lethal Weapon series and everyone’s favorite cop Martin Riggs, but would be remiss to not mention Braveheart and The Patriot, which proves he looks good in any costume. The guy was the voice of John Smith for God’s Sake – he’s a lady’s man.
#3 - Kevin Costner – I need to go no further than Robin Hood and Wyatt Earp, everyone loves a good guy who doesn’t take any shit. Throw in Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, and Tin Cup and it’s a no-brainer. But how about the hot relentless lawyer Jim Garrison in JFK. YUMMY!
Your turn ladies, and gents for that matter, give me your favorite actor based on roles played.
NOTES: The Pants’ Sideline Report record stands at 1-1 after breaking that Dawn Staley was going to take the Head Coaching position at South Carolina in her first blog and picking a horse that got scratched in her second blog. Staley announced her decision to leave Temple days after Pants put it in her “Things To Watch” section of the Sideline Report. Going into the second report undefeated, she went on to pick a trifecta with BehindattheBar coming in second, only to realize the horse was scratched the morning of the Preakness – not everyone’s perfect.
Pick of the Week: The Celtics will head to Detroit up 2-0 and lose on the road. The trip will be made without Sam Cassell who had to phone home after some kid named Elliot tried to fly his bike off a cliff with him in the front basket.
Ass Holes of the Week: Tony Sparano, the Head Coach of the Miami Dolphins, and the Big Tuna Bill Parcells are pissed at Jason Taylor’s participation in Dancing With the Stars and non-participation in voluntary practice. Now as I have stated before I am without a doubt 100% head over heels in love with Jason Taylor. The reigning NFL Man of the year dedicates his time and talents to a variety of causes, including:
-The Jason Taylor Foundation, which creates programs that facilitate the personal growth and empowerment of South Florida’s children.
-The Jason Taylor Celebrity Golf Classic, which raises money for the Holtz Children Hospital.
-Take Stock in Children, which gives deserving children college scholarships.
-Big Screens-Big Dreams a program to inspire and motivate area youth through feature film, etc…
So the guy decides to do Dancing With the Stars and happens to go all the way and now he has all the publicity that goes along with it, giving himself an opportunity to promote his Foundation and many causes. Sparano and Parcells are upset with his lack of participation in voluntary minicamps and team meetings and would rather Ricky Williams on their team, who has violated the NFL’s drug policy now four times.
SMOOTH.

Sam in the basket as ET. That’s an absolutely perfect way to end the day. .

I concur with “shirt” the Sam in a basket cracked me up.
Unfortunately your Celtics prediction didn’t pan out.. here’s to hoping one of the best teams in the NBA can actually win a playoff game on the road.

Oh ya and my pick.. well I noticed you were biased with all men. I tried to think of a female with as many good movies as your picks and the only one that comes to mind is Leonardo Dicaprio.
So my official pick.. Halle Berry, because she’s been in some good movies and is still not too famous to show those great boobs.
