We're a big fan of contact sports, especially when they're played in the nude.
Our friends at Outsports have provided us with some photos of New Zealand's Nude Blacks rugby team competing against South Africa's Springbox. (We don't know what any of that means.)
They've generously edited the photos so that they're moderately suitable for work, but the video that we're providing a link to most certainly isn't.
Enjoy the athletic prowess after the jump!

Judges signed on to next month's Mr. Gay World competition in South Africa sure will have their work cut out for them if the just-announced European delegation is any indication. If any judges are too overwhelmed to by the decision ahead to fulfill their duties, we'll volunteer to assume their roles. After all, we always have the measuring tape and banana oil tucked away in our homosatchels, ready for any emergency situation. See, despite what you may have heard on the gayvine, we are kind, caring and self-less.
However, we may be biased as we have an early favorite within Europe's 2012 offerings. Do you?

The games in Vancouver weren't the only competitions to hold our attentions over the weekends. The Mr. Gay World pageant took place in Oslo and boasted more wax jobs than any of Shaun White's Olympic snowboards.
But only one international competitor could take the title after four days of swimsuit, underwear and other athletic competitions, and Mr. South Africa Charl Van den Berg (pictured) wound up on top (or...?). The 28 year old restaurant-owner from Cape Town beat out China's entry into the glitzy event, Xiaodai Muyi, despite a heavy PR assault launched from Beijing hoping to win Muyi the title. An Austrailian government official took second place, while a dancer from Hong Kong walked away with third.
