Odd but true.

then it was paulina porzikova ... ric ocasek is still the luckiest bastard around ...

Deb Harry and Paulina P both good choices, Yankee fans have good taste.

I don't know if this was the first, but certainly the hottest of my childhood: Diana Rigg as Mrs. Peel on the Avengers. Oh. My. God.

I did a post on DT about Jan Smithers, but I can't find it right now.

next up was Farah Fawcett, followed by Heather Locklear.

yeah, i've got a blonde problem... : ~

She still looks great, too.

On Dodger Thoughts, I believe the preferences lean toward Bailey Quarters, I am sure lots of teen age crushes on Valerie Bertinelli, Olivia Newton John. I can remember Jessica Lange in the first remake of King Kong (I did like Naomi Watts in the more recent version).

Of course, today, the Dodger Thoughts poster girl in Jenna Fischer and somehow lots of appreciation for Winnie Cooper aka Danica McKeller (sp.)

For some reason I also remember horning over a young Cybil Sheppard.

Cheryl Tiegs of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue (much later Kathy Ireland).

meg ryan.

goldie hawn.

michelle pfieffer.

Erin Gray in Buck Rogers... yum.

Any thoughts on her next movie, Walk Hard.

Goldie Hawn, circa the 70s (Shampoo), was crazy fine too.

Charles in Charge
Innerspace
Private Benjamin
Grease 2 (Fabulous Baker Boys)

Lets leave you with that thought.

No Heather Locklear sightings yet.

7 I was about to say, if Alex is bringing up Bo Derek, then Farrah must also be named. But if one mentions Farrah, one should also mention Cheryl Ladd.

21 Ah yes, the fishnet.

But as for the women of the silver screen... I had a brief yen for Andie MacDowell after "Greystoke" came out, but I moved on to Madeleine Stowe ("Stakeout") and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio ("Color of Money"). But there's always been the soft soft for Michelle Pfeiffer ("Ladyhawke") and Mary Steenburgen ("Time After Time"). And has it really been 23 years since Kathleen Turner appeared in "Romancing the Stone"?

Oh, and Winnie Cooper for me.

Apparently, it's not just Joanie who loved Chachi ;-)

Debra Winger. "Officer and a Gentleman", the less well-known but much hotter "Sheltering Sky". I found out post facto that she's in "Urban Cowboy".

Prior to that, Daisy Duke and Princess Leia, the characters more than the women who played them.

And there was this chick who sat behind me in science class.

Now, back to work.

I used to watch reruns of "Love That Bob" when I was a real young kid, and on almost every episode, this incredibly voluptuous and sexy blonde would walk onto the set for a few seconds, basically have sex with Bob Cummings and then leave. And then Ann B. Davis would make a wisecrack.

That's what I thought I had store for me when I grew up.

I also was in love with Tina Louise of "Gilligan's Island," Donna Douglas (?) of "The Beverly Hillbillies" and Julie Newmar who was in Bob Cumming's next series, "My Living Doll" before she was Catwoman.

And I don't know how many here were into pro rasslin during the mid-late '80s but Missy Hyatt was as hot as I thought a woman could get.

Kind of spooked me for a half a second there.

There was also (in no particular order) Matt Dillon, Andy Gibb, and Ron Duguay.

My first big crush was Mary-Louise Parker. That woman has aged like a fine wine.

I'm not sure if she counts as a celebrity, but there's a time I remember that the best part of staying home sick from school was catching a Bodyshaping episode with Kiana Tom.

The first crush? Can't say, but Elizabeth Montgomery from "Bewitched" leaps to mind.

That was a whole nother level of sexuality for a sitcom, no?

And 50 , if you like Jenny Agutter, find an Australian movie called Walkabout.

and when she went into a coma after an accident during the demolition derby, i was shocked and worried.

I would have married her on the spot - then again, I was 13 at the time...

Did Sam's sister ever actually incapacitate her?

Sports cars seldom come up in my conversations, so it's funny that this should be the second time in the past week.

Yeah, those Lamborghini babes were babes.

Very nice.

:)

She's something, isn't she?

64 Of course we matched. I was 13 in 1976 also.

I'd forgotten about that one! What a good little film, wasn't it? A lot like "Something Wild," actually, iirc.

I saw a free screening of that at Sarah Lawrence (I grew up nearby) when I was around 16 and was awestruck by her vivaciousness.

Debra Winger is a good call. There was something too "real" about her to be a fantasy figure for me, but she was really outstanding in "Urban Cowboy" and "Officer and a Gentleman." I remember my mom taking us to see "Officer" I was 11. I thought I was so grown seeing that in theater.

1 - Sean Cassidy
2 - Parker Stevenson (long live the Hardy Boys!)
3 - Lee Majors
4 - Barry William (Greg Brady) - loved his dreamy blue eyes
5 - Scott Baio (waa-waa-waaaaa!)
6 - John Travolta
7 - Tony Geary (Luke Spencer, "General Hospital") yes, even with that horrible 80's man-perm!
8 - all the guys in Duran Duran (I was supposed to be Mrs. Roger Taylor!)

Teen and late teens crushes--Janet Jackson, Anita Baker, Lisa Bonet

Young adult and beyond crushes--Anita Baker still, Angela Bassett, Gabrielle Reece, Sheryl Swoopes, Deb Kaufman, Jennie Finch

As for the SI swimsuit models, Elle Macpherson was always my favorite.

(Googles)

Ah yes, but Blackman played Cathy Gale; that was before her role as Pussy Galore in Goldfinger.

http://theavengers.tv/forever/boom.htm

I seem to recall her doing a Muppet Show once.
Debbie Harry too, for that matter.

Mary Tyler Moore from the Van Dyke show, very alluring and quite sexy (as much as you could be back then.)

It wasn't until the Nick at Nite reruns of her second series that I realized that Mary was, ummm, a very active single woman during her second show.

Alyssa Milano (from Who's the Boss)
Jessica Biel (from Seventh Heaven)
Tara Lipinski

Were my "kind of older than me" crushes, nothing too sexual about them. As for older women:

Lea Thompson (specifically from Back to the Future)
Marina Sirtis
Gillian Anderson

For right now, everybody knows about my lifelong dream of Jessica Alba, but I doubt I'm alone.

Marilyn from the Munsters...
Wrangler Jane from F-Troop...

I also saw the Mel Brooks classics when I was young, and Madeline Kahn floored me.
Loved Terry Garr in Frankenstein.

Damn, Catwoman was fine... every last one of em.

The one I'll never forget is the one from Kentucky Fried Movie. If you saw it, you know who I'm talking about.

oh, and i can't believe it took me this long, but the woman i truly believe to be the single most gorgeous female on this or any other planet: Claudia Schiffer

109 my pop actually worked w/ madeline kahn in college. at hofstra, she was in the theater dept and my dad was building stuff for the scenes. he said she was very cool, funny and attractive...

since i have a thing for blondes, i always kinda liked Lisa Kudrow, too...

what a book it is.

it's a coffee table book... like the one Danny DeVito pitched in "Throw Mama From The Train"..

Quiet offseason on tap for Sox?
Coming off a World Series title, might the Red Sox be a little less active this offseason? "There's a chance for this to be a little bit different of an offseason for us," Theo Epstein told the Boston Herald. "We feel like the foundation is sound, we like a lot of our players and we like the development of a lot of our young players. We're going to have to be patient instead of trying to make things happen: Be patient and capitalize on just the right opportunities might be the best thing to do. It's kind of a nice feeling." ... Locking up Schilling gives the Red Sox a lot of flexibility. With starting pitchers Josh Beckett, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Jon Lester, Clay Buchholz, Tim Wakefield, and now Schilling aboard, the Sox can do a few things, perhaps even package a young pitcher in a trade. More from the Globe's Nick Cafardo: Both the Twins and A's are eyeing Boston's young talent. The Twins might entertain a Johan Santana deal, while the A's might make Dan Haren available. Haren is interesting because he is tied up through 2009 at $4 million and then $5.5 million, with an option for $7.75 million in 2010. The Sox would have to part with one of their young pitchers in either scenario, though a Santana deal would be contingent on getting him signed long-term, at money that could reach north of $20 million per season. "We're probably out of the free agent market unless there's a real value there," said Epstein. "As far as the trade market is concerned, if we have a chance to add a real good, young, controllable pitcher, sure. But we're pretty happy with our depth right now. What we needed was quality to protect the remainder of the rotation."

How about IPK for Haren? IPK plus a minor league position player? Would you do IPK + Melky for Haren? You might be able to get Haren for less than Santana and I think Haren might actually be the better deal.

I'd also like to give props to my sister Robyn, who with 4 kids has no time to get on line to blab about this stuff! She had (and still does) a major thing for Joe Elliott from Def Leppard. That dude is smokin'!

Kate Winslet's another one. Better every year.

have to say a current one is olivia munn from Attack of the Show on the G4 network

as you can tell, i do not have a blonde problem

=)

People kept mentioning names and I kept thinking yeah, me too. Only it was for alot. :-)

So I went back and checked a bunch of stuff out on IMDB. For me the real first was probably Racquel Welch in the Three Musketeers. Lynda Carter and Jenny Agutter. I nearly fainted when I was sung to by Yvonne Elliman in an intimate setting in Florida in the seventies. That sort of knocked TV/movie/magazine beauties down another level for me.

Manny Ramirez & David Wells' wives are pretty hot (having a hard time finding pics of Wells')

NOW I'm definitely out of here!

ok .... that was cute :-)

sammy sosa's wife is sorta like jose lima's, iirc...

138 Damn right - she's why I watched every episode of Call To Glory.

I'm not sure who my first celebrity crush was, but as for the retro-crushes, give me Julie Christie.

How many total?

Newsday: Matsui more likely to be moved than Damon: http://tinyurl.com/32s2rr

No one else is worrying about the extreme lack of power on this team with Arod gone? Dealing Matsui scares me. I guess I'm just not very optimistic about Giambi playing 100+ games.

In syndication, Barbara Eden (Jeanie) and Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched) were afterschool eye candy.

Then, it was Heather Graham, Susanna Hoffs, Lea Thompson, Diane Lane, Kathy Ireland, Phoebe Cates to the 10th and, yes, Stephanie Zimbalist despite her waddle...who knows?

And then came Lisa Bonet. Nuff' said.

The boroughs are full of people waiting to get their freak on. Grrls are equally audacious. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Even after Carl Pavano ran through her, I still find myself having a crush on her. I ended up reading the book "The Entitled" because she mentioned it on her MLB blog.

I loved Linda Carter, too - I still remember those Wonder Woman episodes and being an overly excited 8 year old. Yes, I've been a pervert since about 3 or 4 years old - at least that's what my mom tells me. Milano is the girl I most remember from my youth because of her age and I actually felt that if I met her I could probably get her.

Now that I'm older, I find myself liking the Paris Hilton and Kim Kardsian types. I like girls that make home videos, something about them I find exciting and fun. I love fun!!! I'm not into the boring types like Jennifer Aniston.

Tasha Yar was pretty hot, in an incredibly butch sort of way.

Yeah, but does it really count if, well, damn near anyone could?

That just means she's open to all types of evil and demeaning acts that constantly race through my mind. :-)

Rebecca De Mornay

and she still looks good, 25 yrs later

for me, I'm sure there were probably earlier crushes, but the first I can really remember was probably Gillian Anderson from X-Files, like season 3 onwards, once she got a really good haircut. so pretty and sooo focused! later in high school I became simultaneously obsessed with Parker Posey and Justine Frischmann (the singer from Elastica). what can I say, I like a brunette with attitude! I am always appalled by the fact that I've lived in NY for 9 years now and am like the only person I know that hasn't seen Posey walking around the east village
