We have already done a list of well-timed (and mostly amusing) sports photos, so because it is a Saturday and the 4th of July, we thought it would be nice to have another fun list. This time we are not as concerned about the timing (though it is significant in many cases) but rather about the amusement level of the photos. So – happy 4th of July and enjoy the pics!

HAHA! Great list
July 4th, 2009 at 1:35 am
I hope the one on the right of photo no 9 isn’t John Hopoate!
(I’d better explain that for people who don’t live in Australia, specifically New South Wales. Hopoate was a rugby league player who became notorious for sticking his finger up other players’ backside during the game.)
July 4th, 2009 at 1:42 am
While you’re at it, do a top midget bowlers list.
July 4th, 2009 at 1:43 am
number 9
wtf!
hillarious!
hahaha! that’s why i hate sports!
July 4th, 2009 at 1:43 am
no 16!!!!
July 4th, 2009 at 1:47 am
Great list as always from you JF # 16 I wonder how he got into that position ? or is he camera shy ?
Thanks
July 4th, 2009 at 1:56 am
There are sporting competitions for dwarfs (?dwarves – sounds too much like Tolkein). There was an item on Australian tv about a man who wanted to compete in the USA. I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_Athletic_Association_of_America. (That’s their own name for their association, so no disrespect intended.)
July 4th, 2009 at 1:59 am
That referee is fantastic! He’s so into it :O
July 4th, 2009 at 2:01 am
Hilarious. On the bonus: W.T.F. We can talk effeminate, but this looks like major spine misalignment.
July 4th, 2009 at 2:02 am
6 and 16 are hilarious
July 4th, 2009 at 2:04 am
astraya @ 2 I remember Johns antics on the field, I am going to see the Springboks play the British and Irish Lions in a few hours, we are 2-0 up so It could be a white wash.
July 4th, 2009 at 2:13 am
I don’t get these lists. I hope they don’t get paid 15 bucks for surfing the internet and finding pictures. I could make a list for guns, and google image search guns, and voila, due to these new standards, a list. Please, let’s strive for REAL lists.
July 4th, 2009 at 2:20 am
Haha at the gay ref
July 4th, 2009 at 2:21 am
number 7
July 4th, 2009 at 2:23 am
Henry!! At least appreciate the fact that they spent time surfing the internet and found 30 funny pictures! Go ahead and make a guns list and see if you get 15$ but don’t put others lists down.
July 4th, 2009 at 2:23 am
@Henry (12): Well, then why don’t you do do that list. And while you’re at it, make sure you include a Beretta or a Benelli rifle!
To go back on topic, this one was a nice, hilarious, brainless list perfect for a cranky Saturday morning after I was robbed of my car stereo and slept for 2 hours tops. Thanks.
July 4th, 2009 at 2:48 am
9, 19, and 24 are the funniest!
July 4th, 2009 at 2:51 am
9 – “dude, look! a butt!”
July 4th, 2009 at 3:00 am
Great list
I think someone paid heed when i said we need interesting lists
Thank you Jamie, great list(s)
July 4th, 2009 at 3:36 am
#2 … why? just why?
#Bonus that’s just great, we need more refs like that
Great list though, most of them are just hilarious.
July 4th, 2009 at 3:44 am
I didnt get 14!Y is it funny??
July 4th, 2009 at 3:44 am
Thats why Kobe is so good.. d;-)
July 4th, 2009 at 3:59 am
Bullfighters are not athletes.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:18 am
I’m guessing gay in this case means happy and merry. Because I do not see him hitting on other men at all.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:32 am
lol at 19!
id hate to be that guy..
July 4th, 2009 at 4:41 am
The gay ref haha
July 4th, 2009 at 4:43 am
#12 is just gay rofl
July 4th, 2009 at 4:44 am
Bahahahaha! These are funny, though its understandable why the divers look like that… No. 6 is hilarious.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:47 am
20 is photoshopped. pretty funny list..
July 4th, 2009 at 4:48 am
I KNEW Allen Iverson was gay but Kobe too?
July 4th, 2009 at 6:06 am
funny list-thanx for making my Sunday morning
BTW-happy 2yr anniversary-great site-great commentary
keep up the good work
July 4th, 2009 at 6:07 am
@21 Nk: You don’t see the dog squatting to take a dump in the left background?
July 4th, 2009 at 6:08 am
Fifteen, twenty-six:
My favorite positions
For messing around!!
July 4th, 2009 at 6:45 am
@brad p (32):
you have never owned a dog, have you?
it’s a female dog squatting to urinate, not posturing to defecate. the fact she is raising her pelvis off the ground with straight front legs shows she’s simply urinating.
dogs exhibit a more pronounced “sitting” & hunched posture to defecate.
yeash.
rtr
July 4th, 2009 at 6:59 am
#9, now with 3 times more prison rape!
3 and 18 are absolutely perfect timing.
the look of terror on her face in #22 is priceless.
July 4th, 2009 at 6:59 am
Is it me or is it somewhat disturbing that a quarter of these photo’s involve DIVERS???
July 4th, 2009 at 7:20 am
grt list… really…
funny
July 4th, 2009 at 7:25 am
Excellent list.
July 4th, 2009 at 7:51 am
#17 reminds me of the Little Rascals when alfalfa climbs on top of the soap box car to get darla’s neckerchief haha
July 4th, 2009 at 7:53 am
@ ringtailroxy: yes, how stupid these people are for not knowing the dog was peeing, not crapping. How DARE they don’t intently study the positions a dog takes when relieving itself like YOU do! Lady, I own a dog, and I never pay any attention to her position when she poos or pees, because it doesn’t matter. Your attempt to “correct” somebody else’s comment (as if being unable to discern between a pooping dog and a peeing one is some sort of sign of stupidity) and to sound educated just makes you sound stuck-up and crazy.
Anyway, nice list. Very funny!
July 4th, 2009 at 8:00 am
#15- is that Frank Lampard and John Terry?
July 4th, 2009 at 8:01 am
yeah it is!
July 4th, 2009 at 8:04 am
BWAHAHAHA!
Thanks for making my morning. These were great. Some were just kinda scary like the divers photos.
Loved number 23 the most. Subtle.
July 4th, 2009 at 8:10 am
Jamie- You made me laugh out loud
July 4th, 2009 at 8:16 am
@19unknown92 (41): Yep, and they not only both play for England, but for Chelsea as well. What does that tell you?
July 4th, 2009 at 9:13 am
Henry #12: Please surf the internet for a sense of humor. You could reallly use one.
July 4th, 2009 at 9:21 am
Fun list. Those were some great film captures.
And to everyone here in the colonies, Happy Independence Day.
July 4th, 2009 at 9:38 am
OMG these are great. Have seen some, but this puts them all together in one place like a proper list should do. Great job, once again, from a fellow Listhead. Hey…we need caps & teeshirts with that…email me, dude!!!
July 4th, 2009 at 9:41 am
@Elodie (40): I believe rtr @ringtailroxy (34): was joking.
July 4th, 2009 at 9:43 am
Good list
July 4th, 2009 at 9:56 am
I know I’m reiterating what everyone else has already said but, great list!
The Bonus item is the funniest thing I have seen in a very long while.
Thank you Jamie, from the feminine side of the sports nuts amongst us, for this list. It was a joy to read and the pix were a joy with or without the commentary.
July 4th, 2009 at 10:08 am
Loved the list. Does anyone know the explanations for some of these?
#2 (Wait, what?), #8(Was he hurt?), #12(Why did #9 do that? – Did he get fined?), #14 (Why the dog is on the field?), #16 (There are no words…How did he end up under the other guy’s jock?), #19 (No separate weight classes for Sumo?), #21 (Why? For the love of…), and #26 (how the heck did the ice skaters end up in that position?).
The rest seem self explanatory. Thanks.
July 4th, 2009 at 10:18 am
Astraya – and no one has rearranged Hoapate’s face? or is he built like a brick shit house so everyone just smiles and takes it? I would think a digital assault should get you banned or at least beat up. Oh wait; I get it – It was just an accident…
What the heck is it with Matadors? And I thought it was only rock stars and little men who stuffed, accentuated or otherwise showed off…

Touché
July 4th, 2009 at 11:20 am
Btw great list! What was with the divers though?!?! They look like they’re on a mission to destroy the Earth!
July 4th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
mom424:
Hopoate is indeed built like the proverbial. Since he quit playing Rugby League he’s taken up heavyweight boxing. Amusingly, he’s not very good at it…
I like pic #22: “What are these scary little round yellow things that continually plague my life? OMG there’s another one!”
July 4th, 2009 at 12:40 pm
Haha this was excellent!
July 4th, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Haha Great List. We need more like these.
I’m calling Rape on #9
July 4th, 2009 at 2:39 pm
Hopoate is built like a brick out house. Hes now a heavyweight boxer tho not a very successful one.
nice list btw i enjoyed it. Had to laugh at the rugby one u could make an entire list out rugby weird photos id think.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
6, 9, 10, 20, 22 crack me up.
#30: The Luckiest guy in the world.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
Picture# 2–This hardly helps our efforts on teaching our 5 year old what not to in public with her britches. Hahaha
July 4th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
OMG. The dog taking a dump is so random. It made me laugh out loud. At least dogs don’t have to worry about stage fright.
July 4th, 2009 at 7:54 pm
Great list! keep em’ coming
July 4th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
Ha ha, midget basketball
July 4th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
Wow Hopoate talk, thats brings back memories. Its like a private joke for this part of the world. Hey Jamie any chance of a poll to see where eveyone is from?
July 4th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
#3 “I Didn’t Mean It Literally”
#20 & 21 Bigger Socks fellas
#22 Definitely a Slab Beauty (ie you need to drink a slab (24)of beers to make her a beauty)
Cheers
Lee
July 4th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
#19 is the worst atomic wedgie I believe I have ever seen.
# 5, 7, 11, 20 & 22 made me LOL.
GREAT list!
July 4th, 2009 at 8:39 pm
#24 was hilarious. Not only do we finally have proof that Crosby takes it in the butt, but he’s gettin it from Hawk defenceman Duncan Keith. Absolutely hilarious.
July 5th, 2009 at 12:00 am
lol at the gay ref, that made me laugh so hard.
do more lists like this!!!
July 5th, 2009 at 12:37 am
Number 22 got me…hahaha
July 5th, 2009 at 12:52 am
from wiki:
[In] 2001 …, Hopoate, in an attempt to unsettle several of his opponents, inserted his fingers in three players’ anuses, the first occurring during the seventh minute of play. At the conclusion of the match the matter was immediately referred to the rugby league judiciary where a case was put forward from both sides on 28 March. Hopoate claimed in front of the panel of judges that he was simply attempting to give all three players “a wedgie” with his fingers, denying he had done anything wrong and that he was “a great believer in what happens on the field should stay there”.
The three victims in the case … all disagreed with the reasoning put forward by Hopoate and his team. [One] stated, “It wasn’t a wedgie. That’s when your pants are pulled up your arse. I think I know the difference between a wedgie and someone sticking their finger up my bum.”
Hoppa is now the national heavyweight champion (http://www.anbf.org/Ratings.htm), but that may say more about the rest of Australian boxing than it does about him. If the Michael Kirby at no 2 on that list is the Michael Kirby I know about (a retired High Court judge), then Australian boxing is in really bad shape!
July 5th, 2009 at 12:53 am
PS What are the two teams in photo no 9? Sharks and Raiders????
July 5th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
excellent still laughing
July 5th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
i’m confused on why #23 is funny?
July 5th, 2009 at 1:55 pm
#74-unknown- Because it looks like she`s having an orgasm with a tennis racket,I think.
July 5th, 2009 at 2:49 pm
not a rated-G list
July 5th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
74 unknown
July 5th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
i’m confused on why #23 is funny?
July 5th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
I meant: I’m 12 and what is this?
July 5th, 2009 at 6:22 pm
@74, 77: I think it’s funny because it looks like Martina Hingis is giving birth to a tennis racket.
July 5th, 2009 at 6:28 pm
These pics… some of them are just sick!
July 5th, 2009 at 8:53 pm
Pictures 3, 25, 27 confirms pretty much what I’ve thought about basketball, and whats with the guys in 2 and 21 administrating self wedgies, at least the tennis player doesn’t look like he’s enjoying it.
July 5th, 2009 at 10:01 pm
in no 9 i think that you will find that the victim is Tom Lehroyd Lahrs from the Canberra Raiders but i can’t remember off hand who the sharks player is
July 6th, 2009 at 1:53 am
Oh astraya, I thought exactly the same thing. John strikes again!!!
July 6th, 2009 at 2:37 am
Hehe there’s a whole lot of man-love going on in most of these pictures!
Awesome list! Laughed my @ss off lol.
July 6th, 2009 at 4:18 am
#2 – So funny!!
Great list loved them all!!
July 6th, 2009 at 5:21 am
HELL-ER-IOUS!!!!
July 6th, 2009 at 5:30 am
Love this list! I’ve seen some already before but who cares! LOLz!
July 6th, 2009 at 11:19 am
HAHa, i always thought that Terry was Lampard’s bitch so no surprises there.
July 6th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
in all fairness #16. is Danshoku Dino a wrestler for DDT in japan who has a very “gay” gimmick. His finishing manuver is maneuver is a Canadian destroyer, front flip piledriver, performed with the other wrestler’s head in his tights.
July 7th, 2009 at 12:25 am
its really funny………..!!!!
July 7th, 2009 at 12:13 pm
@icky (89): Thanks for the explaination. I still wonder about #2, #8, #12, #14, #19 #21 and #26 though.
July 7th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
ok this list was funny! but I do object a little to calling that referee “gay”. Saying “that’s so gay” or using “gay” as a derogatory adjective demeans homosexual individuals.
July 7th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
1. “OMG, Imma ’bout to land on a pole!”
2. “Ooh, that air feels so goooood…”
3. “Suck it, beyotch!”
4. “Who needs a menstrual cycle when you can flyyyyy!”
6. The headbone’s connected to the…
9. “Hey, I found my keys!”
12. “Pardon me, good sir, I thought that WAS your hand…”
16. “I just can’t take it anymore… goodbye, cruel world…”
22. “I couldn’t figure out why it just kept getting bigger and bigger… then it hit me!”
25. “Whoa! Back on up there…”
26. “PILEDRIVER!”
27. “And I… will always… love you…”
30. “They always told me to do this if I was feeling nervous… I don’t think it’s working…”
July 8th, 2009 at 12:08 am
niiiiiiiiiiiceee xD i loved this one !
the gay ref ! LMAO
July 8th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
ixora05: That ref is gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. Obviously happy, flamboyant, confident, really into living life and flaunting it for millions. You obviously need tougher skin if THAT performance can’t be called gay. It’s not about being homosexual, it’s about being GAY.
Rock Hudson was homosexual. That ref, girlfriend, was GAY.
Gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. He’s here, he’s queer, get used to it! Freakin’ PC crowd…can’t even be gay anymore and jump around on a soccer field like a ballerina and be gay without some bleeding heart complaining…sheez. What’s a girl to do?
July 8th, 2009 at 8:30 pm
@ixora05 (92): Maybe it’s just the small ultra-liberal intellectual crowd I worked with for over twenty years in the film biz, but gay, queer, fairy, what-all were just words they used to describe themselves, and those of us who loved them as dear friends used them as well. They weren’t derogatory. If anything they were fun!
I can remember yelling across set to get the attention of the make-up man, “Jocko! Get your queer butt over here and give me an opinion!” And he’d he’d yell back.”Oh, honeybunch! This fairy has more opinions than the Sunday NY Times has print.”
Sadly, most of these wonderful people, people I knew in some cases since Uni days, are dead of AIDS. But the words, the words the words they wore with pride, with glee, with such a sense of humor it was catching!
I miss you all, my dear gay friends, lets do a dance for you.
July 8th, 2009 at 10:29 pm
ive been laughin so hard!! great pictures!!
July 9th, 2009 at 7:08 am
excellent list, i’ll die laughing!
July 10th, 2009 at 6:16 am
Wow,these pictures are so much fun! And my favorite tennis!
July 10th, 2009 at 10:46 pm
PORTAL DO VALE-TUDO !!!! É NOIX !!!!!!!!!!
July 11th, 2009 at 7:50 am
Moral of the story, asian people are ugly.
July 14th, 2009 at 11:31 am
No 1 isnt even funny let alone should it take the no 1 spot. The diving photos in general are not funny, the rest are.
July 14th, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Hahahahahahhaha I love the bonus!!! That just made my day
July 21st, 2009 at 4:01 pm

July 28th, 2009 at 10:50 am

July 31st, 2009 at 12:57 am
HAHA nr 4! to bad i’m at work right now, rly had to hold it in!
August 2nd, 2009 at 10:10 am
EH.
August 2nd, 2009 at 9:12 pm
Hehe, the Gay Referee reminds me of the flamboyance of our very own Billy Bowden (a famous cricket ref who turned umpiring into a dance/art form).
August 8th, 2009 at 7:51 pm
hysterical! laughed way hard
October 3rd, 2009 at 12:46 am
I think number 3 is the funniest
November 7th, 2009 at 8:30 am
HAHA gay referee
December 13th, 2009 at 1:07 pm
The bonus is the best! HAHAHAHAHA
