Swedish Crossbowoman Misses Out On '08 Olympics, But Moonlights Nude Anyway

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Even though crossbow will not be an Olympic sport until 2012, Swedish team member Sara Boberg decided not to wait four years to engage in the Games' seemingly integral moonlighting activity: posing naked...

We'd have had a huge crush on this lovely lass, even if we had seen the above photo without the below ones, which we're guessing were leaked by a vengeful ex...

If I were the vengeful ex, I'd think twice about messing with someone who's an Olympic cross-bower.  I might turn into instand shish-ka-bob.

nerve: I don't understand why you stopped having a crush when you saw her naked. I am baffled by this statement.

@MrZebra:  I think you're parsing the sentence incorrectly.  I read it as, Nerve has the crush on her, and would have *even if* it hadn't seen the naked pics.

I have no problem with beautiful young Olympians showing me their stuff--intentionally.

But if, as you intimate, said beautiful Olympian has been exposed against her will by a slimy ex, then reprinting the pics makes Nerve no better than the slimy ex.

Not cool.

We're only speculating. Until we know more, the post stays.

After all, it's almost as likely that she pulled a sort of Amy Fisher move and leaked 'em herself for greater fame...
