Here are the hottest cheerleaders in the world, the girls of "Las Marineritas De Almirante Brown" from the 3rd Division (minor leagues) of the professional Argentine Football League.
This team was so bad that a few years ago they started using "Porritas" (cheerleaders) in their home matches. As all footballers know, American style cheerleaders don't belong in world football, but this club needed a little help in their attendance so they hired these local girls to help. That's right - local neighborhood girls, not models!
Their choreography may need some more work compare to their U.S. counter parts in the NFL, but no one cares about that during their half-time show. The fans are looking at other things....

Here are the wives and girlfriends of seven of the top footballers in the world in a photo session for the Umbro World Champions Collection for the upcoming 19th FIFA World Cup, South Africa 2010. Each one of these seven girls and the jerseys they are wearing represents all the current and former World Cup champions in the history.
Football Shirt Culturewrote - "The wives and girlfriends of seven international football stars have been shot by legendary photographer Rankin for a stunning global advertising campaign to promote Umbros new World Champions Collection.
Abbey Clancy, the girlfriend of England striker Peter Crouch, has joined six other women who, like her, currently or previously have either dated or married an international footballer. And to make it even more relevant to this summers event, each girl represents one of the seven countries that have ever won the worlds biggest football tournament - Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Italy and Uruguay.
The striking image Rankin has produced is based on an iconic campaign run by Umbro in 1967, which famously featured girls cheekily wearing football shirts as dresses. For 2010, the campaign has been brought right up to date with the girls modelling the Umbro World Champions Collection. This truly inspired football range has been designed in collaboration with some of the hottest international artists, each hailing from the same country as each model. The twist in the brief to them was to base their design on the tailored silhouette of the Umbro England home shirt. I thought the idea of creating a modern interpretation of the Umbro advert from the sixties was an interesting concept. The girls in the campaign all look stunning and they were a pleasure to work with. Im extremely pleased with the results, says Rankin.
Rankin spent two days photographing these beautiful women. Argentina is represented by Luli Fernandez and has been designed in collaboration with Buenos Aires based record label, ZZK Records. Brazil is represented by the wife of Julio Cesar, Susana Werner, wearing a shirt designed by Fernando Chamarelli, an illustrator, visual artist and tattoo designer from Sao Paolo.
Model and TV presenter, Abbey Clancy, wears the England shirt. Abbey is striking in a shirt with a crest designed by Ben Eine, one of Englands most prominent street artists and graffiti pioneers. I loved the shoot with Rankin and the opportunity to be a part of recreating the famous Umbro advert from 67. The crest design is a really fun take on a traditional, regal crest, said Abbey.
Charlene Suric, girlfriend of France & Arsenal left back Gaël Clichy, is wearing the French shirt, designed in collaboration with Andre, the Paris based graffiti artist and international fashion authority.
Germany is represented by Julia Godicke. Julias shirt has been designed by Marok, Berlins legendary magazine mogul and cultural icon. Alice Bregoli is married to Alberto Gilardino, the Italian and Fiorentina player, and will be featured wearing a shirt designed in collaboration with Italian comics author, illustrator and artist, Tanino Liberatore.
Finally, Uruguays inaugural 1930 and legendary 1950 World Cup wins are represented by Zaira Nara, who dates Uruguay and Atletico Madrid striker, Diego Forlan. Zairas shirt crest was designed by Martin Albronoz, a mixed media artist from Montevideo.
Trevor Cairns, Chief Marketing Officer from Umbro explains why the brand took this direction. Looking back through our imagery archives, we discovered that Umbro used girls to promote their shirts in the World Cup year of 1966. We have used the wives and girlfriends of players who represent the Champion nations to model our new shirts. This is an irreverent, fun and Umbro way to showcase these great products, to celebrate global football culture in a World Cup year and to give a nod to our own history and heritage.
The Umbro World Champions Collection of football shirts and T-shirts is available from leading independents. RRP £70 for the Limited Edition box (including poster of all the crests signed by the artists, the shirt, story booklet about the inspiration behind each design and a crest pin badge), £50 for shirt, £25 for T-shirt. nike football shirt culture adidas puma umbro"

With the much anticipated 2010 Winter Olympics in British Colombia, Canada just a few weeks away. The eternal question pops up again but with a twist in last month's DVD release of docu-drama classic Downhill Racer. The film asks those of us with some talent and ability - "How fast must a man go to get from where he's at?"
The 1969 sports classic movie "Downhill Racer" starting a very young Robert Redfordtries to answer this pondering question that all of us with a crumb of talent and ability ask ourselves everyday. How much ambition to you have in you to take your talent and ability to the next level? Can you take it to the highest level in your chosen field or career? At what cost?
What if you get to the top and you find out you never really left from where you started?
What gets me about this classic sports/love movie is that Gene Hackman has hair!!!
According to Hollywood critics, Downhill Racer is the best sports movie ever produced with some of the most spectacular ski scenes ever filmed. It is not really a sports movie par se (Olympic downhill ski racing is just the setting), but more of a romantic drama told in documentary style in exotic ski locations like the Lauberhorn at Wengen, Switzerland and the Hahnenkamm at Kitzbuhel, Austria. Also included were Megeve, France and St. Anton, Austria.

Here is what Image Entertainment wrote about the movie:
"Astonishing Alpine location photography and a young Robert Redford in one of his earliest starring roles are just two of the visual splendors of Michael Ritchie's visceral debut feature, DOWNHILL RACER. In a beautifully understated performance, Redford is David Chappellet, a ruthlessly ambitious skier competing with an underdog American team in Europe for Olympic gold, and Gene Hackman provides tough support as the coach who tries to temper the upstart's narcissistic drive for glory. With a subtle screenplay by acclaimed novelist James Salter, DOWNHILL RACER is a vivid character portrait buoyed by breathtakingly fast and furious imagery that brings the viewer directly into the mind of the competitor."
Very Short List wrote last month of the new DVD release of Downhill Racer:
"Just weeks after Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
made Robert Redford into a megastar in 1969, the actor turned up in a
very different kind of picture—a documentary-style movie about a
fearless skier with an all-consuming desire for Olympic gold. Downhill Racer
(available from Criterion 11/17) shows Redford at his early best:
outrageously charming, naturally physical and unrelentingly sexy.
Much of Downhill Racer—which was directed by Michael Ritchie, who reteamed with Redford in 1972 for The Candidate—is
a sort of thrill ride: Cameras mounted to actual skiers provided
bird’s-eye footage of what it’s like to careen down slopes at what
looks like a million miles an hour. Sure, there’s a love interest, and
a rival or two, but the film focuses mostly on the development of one
great undisciplined athlete into a bona fide star. Plus, Redford’s
coach is played by a young Gene Hackman, who gives us a peek at the guy
we love so much in Hoosiers."
