This is a tough one. Although I love Smytty's attitude, his hair repels me. I gotta go with Horc.

Nemesi? Nemesisisisisisis?

Loxy! This should have been the final in my book.

Damn!

Have to go with Smytty all the way on this one. He embodies everything I love about hockey. I have a picture of him on the wall in my recroom. I stay up even later on Saturday nights for his After Hours interviews.

Yep, he's my man crush.

scarlett: I dare say scissors trump mullet.

I wouldn't kick either out of bed, but I'll go with Horcoff, because if you have a mirror, he's two different men.

Although the mullet may hold magical powers, a la Sampson, Horc's overager, if somewhat vacant puppy dog eyes win my vote.

Horcoff. Two-face beats rat face in my books.

I heart Horcoff's voice. Lots. I vote for him. Mullet man just isn't my style. I'd give a lot of money to be that wooden horse he's stroking.

Because I'm a pedantic shithead: wouldn't Smyth actually be 210 in dog years? Or was that, to quote the Crash Test Dummies, "some very subtle joke"?

And this *is* close. But Smyth.

Ladies, this is getting tough. I had to make a pros and cons list for them and it was so close... Goofy good looks aside for both, I am going to have to go with the youthful Shawnie due to the fact we share the same home province.

There is only one excuse for hockey hair and that is, in fact, hockey. And Smytty's got that one down. I vote for the man who let the old lady run her fingers through his hair. How can you not? If I could clone myself, I'd vote twice.

I will say this one was the hardest one yet, and sort of unfair. Darn it!

With the dog years thing, it's as if these two men found out they were dogs and then transfered that to people years.

It doesn't make any sense.

Maybe I just figured they had the mental capacities of.. That's just not nice.

I vote for Smyth.

Yesterday was so easy, but today I've actually had to spend time thinking about. I have to go with Mr. Mullet :)

Jordi said…
That's not fair, Mullet Man had 3 extra years of living and thus 3 more years of being a sex symbol. LET HORCOFF WIN DAMMIT. (I know this wont work but it was worth a try in my attempt to change the flow)

Smyth. He wins on the "loveable" factor.

Smyth!! He's the only man who has enough personality that he can still look good with a mullet and half his teeth knocked out :)

OK is it sad that I know a friend of mine well enough to be pretty sure just from reading them that one of those anonymouses voted twice?

Oh Captain Canada is so delicous!! But Horc has those sparkling eyes that suck me in! This is so hard!

Verdict is: Damnit there both so sexy!

Sorry boys I can't pick!
