(Dial-up warning) Look who's dating supermodel Adriana Lima! (DU women, is this guy hot?)
Just saw this in Yahoo News. Me, I'm baffled. I guess playing for an NBA team counts for something.

:shrug:

Marko Jaric #55 | Guard-Forward | Minnesota Timberwolves
Height: 6-7 Weight: 224
Born: Oct 12, 1978 - Belgrade, Yugoslavia








And here's Ms. Lima. Amazingly, there were *many* more pictures of her on the Net than of him...

1. He looks like a good looking guy -
What freaks me out is that he's 6 years YOUNGER than me!!! He looks much older. For comparison - Me, age 35:

2. That's some poor photoshopping of the crotch in the third Lima pic
As for the pro-baller, he's about as attractive as any man, which, to me, is not at all. But, even as men go, his cross-eyed ass is especially goofy looking. I doubt it's the money, since she probably has more than him. Maybe it's the status, he is a professional athlete after all and pro athletes are like Gods to many people. Or, maybe he has a great personality...or an enormous wang. Who knows.

4. I'd bet it's personality or wang or both.
I think only the really good pro athletes are like Gods, right? Or who knows, maybe she think's he's a great player.

6. Yeah, that's true, he certainly isn't a big name
Must be a stand-up chap.

So, does that mean that personality and large genitalia are important to women?

3. Macho Dork? What a combo
Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 11:27 AM by supernova
Esp evident in that first pic.

Dunno, maybe, perhaps, he's a nice guy who treats her well.

edit: I don't find him appealing. I tend to go for artists of varying stripes, rather than athletes. I like actors, and painters and sculptures. Oddly, almost never musicians.

7. Looks are seldom anyone's first
consideration in dating. I'm sure that holds true for over-the-top attractive people too. Hell I know it does, because a couple of them have showed some attraction to me.

Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 12:05 PM by EstimatedProphet
How dare he presume to date a supermodel! She's out of his league! And how could she betray her model-ness by dating someone who isn't as universally judged as beautiful as she is! The nerve of some people!

Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 12:46 PM by kay1864
(from Wikipedia: )

Lima has admitted that she was shy around boys when she was younger, not receiving her first kiss until she was 17 years old.<15> In an interview with GQ April 2006 issue, Lima told the magazine that she is a virgin. “Sex is for after marriage," she says. "They have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me."<16> US GQ dubbed her as "The World's Most Voluptuous Virgin".<17>

And I don't think the great-looks relationships last as long as the great-personality ones do.

49. Exactly
And not only does it happen, what really amazes me is how people act offended when someone goes for a partner by personality or intellect rather than looks, as if that's somehow not supposed to happen.

It'd be amazing if a hot guy did it though.

is when someone picks a partner based on who they are as a person, and not whether they are "hot".

Even if he were brilliant and well-hung he'd still look like a dufus to me. However I've learned to love a couple of dufus' in my time.

Too pretentious, self-centered and arrogant.

Likely ok for a shallow affair but BFD if sincerity is considered or
if respectability matters a whit.

46. Well, I'm guessing a b-ball player would be taller than a supermodel,
and they're usually quite tall. He's from Yugoslavia? Maybe he has old-fashioned ideas like she does (re sex is for marriage only). I don't know, just taking a couple of guesses here. :shrug:
