Sports. The one area of our social landscape illuminated by the bright lights where physical attractiveness is completely irrelevant. Turn on your TV or go to the movies and you’ll see some of the best looking people on the planet. Yeah we may root for the underdog on The Voice but we’d all rather watch Carrie Underwood kick around in her cowboy boots for an hour. Who’s grandma going to vote for in the election: a 60 year old saggy neck or a 40 year old with a tailored suit and a million dollar smile? It’s obviously no coincidence that 95% of people in the public eye are easy on it. But you can fall from the ugly tree, hit every branch on the way down and still play quarterback in the NFL. Just ask Curtis Painter.

So we thought it our duty here at Bottlegate to take a look at the athletes that play for our sports teams through those same fabulous, bedazzled lenses as we do the rest of the celebrities in the world. Take a minute to make your picks below, then look out for our personal picks and the results from your votes later this week.

If you don’t see an athlete listed that you would have voted for, click “other” and leave a comment at the bottom of the page telling us who we left out.

We’re keeping the results hidden until we reveal them next week.
