Professional Sports Tattoos

This is not a post about tattoos that certain athletes have like Jordan Farmar's "just the two of us" tat with him and his little brother, or Mike Bibby's "team dime on his back", or even AI's hundreds of tats.

But rather, Sports Illustrated is showing how some die hard fans are showing their support to their team. Now I'm one to support your local team by whatever means necessary, but is an entire piece of art all over your back the way to go? Especially when it's a picture of an athletes face? I won't even wear a t-shirt of my favorite athletes face.

In case you're too lazy to point your mouse over that underlined and highlighted link to the article, I'll post the most outrageous and interesting tattoos...

This tattoo is very interesting. Because I have no idea what it is. And it's on his nipple. And he's fat. And he's hairy. So what would possess you to put any sort of tattoo on your nipple?!?!!?

This is really interesting because... ummm .... the Raiders are awesome.

This is by far the best one... because it's 100% real. 50 points to you if you know who this is. Oh, and these points will be awarded every so often and can be redeemed at a special time and place.

random lookalike of the day!
