Maria Sharapova

Maria Sharapova Saturday won the women’s singles title at Wimbledon when she beat defending champion Serena Williams in the final.

Sharapova is just 17-years old.

Many of the same people who would consider an Olsen Twins countdown clock tacky or perverted are singing the praises of Sharapova's new hotness (call it the Dick Enberg / Bud Collins Syndrome). This seems pretty hypocritical but it is an area ripe for hypocrisy.

A 40-year old guy who comments that he thinks Sharapova is hot is automatically a pervert but when Boris Becker won Wimbledon in 1985 at 17 - women of all ages openly oogled him. Call it the Demi Moore Syndrome I guess.

For the record - I don't find Sharapova all that hot looking. And like many of my posts - this post has no real point whatsoever.
