is this Danica Patrick photo acceptable?

[Syrinx]

I'm just asking. Seems DU has tighter standards regarding cheesecake than beefcake. Maybe I'm wrong.

[I Know How To Do it]

1. That paint job on the car is terrible!

[Robeson]

2. It is to me.

[Floogeldy]

3. It would be cool with me . . .

. . . if she would wipe that "fuck you asshole" look off of her face.

}(

[Robeson]

4. You were looking at her face????.....

...man, get a grip.

[KitchenWitch]

17. You, Robeson, are a pig

and I mean that in the best sense of the word :rofl:

[Syrinx]

5. that's just "irony" inherited from her boss

[yorgatron]

6. how about this one?

[Wetzelbill]

7. I thought that was more of a "Fuck you, leering weirdo" look

but I could be wrong. :)

[Syrinx]

8. if that's a "fuck you" look I could take more of it

;)

[Wetzelbill]

9. hahaha

[Dude_CalmDown]

10. Works for me. n/t

:evilgrin:

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. I've never seen differing standards. Care to clue me in?

:shrug:

[Syrinx]

14. well, I don't have empirical evidence

Just my impression. And like I said I could be wrong. But I don't think I am.

[girl gone mad]

12. if it's real..

it seems she suffers from the same syndrome I do - no butt syndrome.

Her thighs are really skinny. She's 5'2", but she looks like she could be 5'10". Probably photoshopped, though.

Sigh. Just giving you men some insight into how women think, I suppose.. :P

[Syrinx]

22. yeah

A little more "junk in the trunk" would be nice. Or as Craig Ferguson says "precious cargo." ;)

[xultar]

13. She's smart, great @ her sport and beautiful. U GO GURL!

I love the photo.

[Skittles]

15. see, I see it differently

she's supposedly trailblazing for gals in racing but she takes time out to pose for cheesy cheesecake photos - yeah, whatever. :thumbsdown:

[sniffa]

38. why don't you just go ahead and caLL her a skank

[Syrinx]

20. thanks xultar!

I readily admit that I have vague feelings of inadequacy when I see women cooing over some "hunk" online. But I have no REAL objections to it. And I think this is a pretty picture.

[Rocinante]

16. Yes

It is acceptable. And she drives like all to be damn. I'm a fan of hers even if she don't get nekkid.

[Syrinx]

18. I've never really been into racing

I don't even know what you call this kind of racing. I just call it "Indy-Style." What's the correct term?

Are you familiar with Tina Gordon? She's not quite as sexy as Danica, but she's a decent driver. She does NASCAR-type races, but it's a level down from NASCAR. I don't know that term either. I mostly know her from these furniture-store commercials she does down in these parts. Maybe they show up there where you live. Do you have "Sticks 'N Stuff" stores up there?

(I love your sig pictures. Wayne Newton, Fred Mertz, and I believe that is the Amazing Canadian Trio in the middle.)

[Rocinante]

25. Indy Style- Indy Car

It's all the same to me. I prefer Champ cars and Formula 1 to oval track racing.

I've seen the ads with the lady that drives the Sticks and Stuff car but I don't follow NASCAR racing. She is attractive though, and must be a damn good driver.

Thanks for the sigline compliment.
;-)

[khashka]

19. Not at all

Now if it was some hairy guy named Patrick Danica bent over a car my opinion might be different.

(Dammit, where is xmas when I need her?)

Khash, some hairy guy dude.

[Syrinx]

21. that reminds me...

Of something Keith Olbermann said one night. I don't remember exactly how it went. But Keith used to co-host a show on ESPN with Dan Patrick. And it involved a female driver named Keithica Olbermann. Wish I could remember how he told it. It was funny.

[Swamp Rat]

23. Crappy photo

Bad composition, can't see the whole car, the position of the model is awkward (she looks uncomfortable, on many 'levels')... but what do I know, I don't even own a decent camera. :shrug:

:D

[Baclava]

24. I prefer NASCAR's next star

Outlaws to ARCA to Busch to Cup...She's on her way up fast...

[southlandshari]

26. Define "acceptable"

:shrug:

[Syrinx]

27. acceptable to post

DU seems very fungible on these matters.

28. She looks like a plumber with an attitude.....

[solinvictus]

31. Her hiny is too tiny..

I guess it sweats away in those long hours in a hot car.

[Scout]

32. seems to me we don't get much beefcake posted AT ALL

but I don't hang out in the lounge a lot ... I do check in obviously.

I think the picture is stupid. Feel sorry for Danica that she feels this is necessary to advance her career.

I guess she's just lucky she's not an ugly woman, 'cuz then who would care about her, even if she was racing's best driver?

[DS1]

33. It's official. Now that she's done this picture, nobody is allowed to

complain about men being interested in her as a racer and pointing out that she's good looking.

Period.

[miss_kitty]

34. is she a plumber when she's not racing?

uh-bad style choice for her figure

[ProfessorGAC]

35. I Don't See A Gun To Her Head

She's an adult. She obviously is a willing participant in this marketing scheme. Good for her if she's willing to make a buck this way.
The Professor

[RedstDem]

36. I'm Rooting For Danica...She's Alright In My Book..But

Who Thought That Outfit Looked Good ? God Awful Choice On The Bikini Bottom...Should Have Photographed Her In One That Fits Right.


edit:grammar

[dajoki]

37. the picture is great!!...

and i can't wait for college football.:woohoo:

[Dukkha]

39. I just like the fact she draws attention from the whiny men drivers

To the point where they were boycotting the autograph treatment she was getting

"Andretti Green Racing will hold an emergency meeting with IRL bosses this week after all four of the team’s driver boycotted last weekend’s official autograph session – because Danica Patrick was given a separate queue for the second time this season."
