Careful at work today if you're looking at ESPN.com

I know people will disagree,but I think it's inappropriate at best and disgusting at worst for ESPN to put that on. I'd like to think i can let my children go on an all sports website (or go on myself) without having to see nudity.

On thing I realized in looking at those is that most athletes wear uniforms that leave little to the imagination anyway. Seeing them nude is not much of a thrill. I kind of thought maybe it would demonstrate even better the level of conditioning required for top performance but I don't think these athletes were selected just for being top performers.

I won't begrudge ESPN the right to promote and engage in "high art." There is very little sexuality in any of those pictures. On the Art VS. Pornography spectrum it lands far to the art side. Children can be exposed to far more sexually suggestive material by watching the commercials during a nationally televised game.

Agreed. If anything, I think our society is WAY too uptight about the human body. They're just pictures of butts -- we all got one.

Completely agree. Finding the body issue which shows nothing but some butt cheeks at worst to be offensive is offensive to me. Seems to be as people should be more open minded about things these days that people are now just more easily offended by everything and quick to share their "outrage". That's probably why kids are all such little whiny, privileged brats these days.

You can see him naked even if he's not technically naked. Observe:

This.

Those people better not take their kids to the Louvre or any other art museum - NUDITY EVERYWHERE!!! :p
Paintings, sculptures, frescoes etc that leave NOTHING to the imagination. ;)

Who will think about the children? :)
 
It's offensive that someone would be offended? Interesting take. I think it's pretty reasonable to have certain standards and to have some safe haven where everyone can enjoy something and not have to compromise on these srandards and for "open minded people" to respect that. I find that the most close minded people I meet are the "open minded" ones. "Open minded" usually means agreeing with my opinion. If you like to see nudity, I'm not telling you not to look at it, but I'm sure there are plenty of other places to find them- We don't need ESPN for it. It's unfortunate that it has become harder and harder to enjoy the positive aspects of society without the cesspool. If nowadays kids are "winy little brats", I believe it has nothing to do with that and more the lack of standards and respect for those standards.
Sincerely

Where's the nudity on ESPN? I don't see a single photo of any of the parts that make women, women and men, men.

I believe they are brats because they have parents who are these weak people that need to be outraged and offended by everything that isn't right in their wheelhouse. I'm far more outraged that gov't buildings like the one in Arkansas are trying to put up statues of the 10 commandments then if they were putting up some kind of nude sculpture. I'm very happy that the guy exists who keeps running them over with his car.
 
I'm not clicking on it. God knows how often I've been accused of this.

May I ask, are there any pictures of ESPN Personalities, and by that I mean of Cari Champion? Or is it just athletes.
 
1, 9, 12 maybe, 14, 15, 16.
