hunk

Man, are we ready for some football. This week’s Monday night game featured hunky quarterback Eli Manning leading his New York Giants to a win over the St. Louis Rams.

We’re in absolute love with British actor Sam Riley. Though we don’t endorse many of his actions — smoking, sulking, being too skinny, being married — he’s completely won us over. The hollow-cheeked hunk has an almost haunting beauty which directly causes us to watch (on repeat) clips of him on YouTube.

Heck, with his diver’s body and skimpy Speedo, Troy Dumais could have the face of an ogre and still be our Hunk of the Day. Luckily (for us!) that’s not the case — this hottie is handsome from head to toe.

Ah, a man with a hammer. Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse (and part-time Nautica model) stars in two shows on HGTV – ‘Red Hot & Green,’ a program about eco-friendly design, and ‘Carter Can,’ where he helps homeowners through seemingly impossible home improvement dilemmas. Full disclosure: We watch the shows mainly to gawk at Oosterhouse’s unbelievable hotness.

One reason we love ‘America’s Got Talent‘: It introduces us to hunks in categories we never could have imagined. Say, magicians. Say, Landon Swank. (God, even his name is hunky.) The Alaska native (naturally) is currently fighting it out as one of the show’s top ten remaining acts.

Quintessential California boy Paul Walker is a lot more than just a sandy-haired surfer. The actor from ‘Varsity Blues’ and ‘The Fast and the Furious’ is also a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-itsu, a marine biologist, a race-car driver, an earthquake relief provider!

Ah, nothing like some prep school prettiness to get us all hot and bothered. Boyishly cute Drew Van Acker plays the slightly creepy character of Jason DiLaurentis on ABC Family’s ‘Pretty Little Liars,’ and like we said, he definitely fits the “pretty” bill.

He may have scared the you-know-what out of TV audiences as Stringer Bell on ‘The Wire,’ but nobody can deny the intense sex appeal of British hunk Idris Elba. At 38, Elba’s career has never been better. He’s appeared in everything from big-screen movies like ‘Thor’ to hit TV shows like ‘The Office.’ He also just picked up two — count ‘em — two Emmy nominations, one for his work on ‘The Big C’ and

Though he’s since calmed down significantly, Colin Farrell will always be one of Hollywood’s most notorious — and sexiest — bad boys. Sure, he’s pulled his fair share of stunts in the past (lest we forget this travesty), but the 35-year-old hunk from Ireland is the type who could do a bad thing one day, then make up for it the next day with a simple wink and a smile.

Rugby never really caught on in America. Which is really a shame, because we’re missing out on some serious eye candy from across the pond. Like Ben Cohen. Though he retired in May, the 32-year-old – and oftentimes shirtless – hunk from England had tongues wagging for years with his killer moves both on and off the rugby field, and went on to become England’s 10th-highest point scorer of all time.

While there’s no such thing as the perfect human being, it’s hard to find any physical flaw with model David Gandy. Of course, we could go on, and on (and on) about how good-looking this 31-year-old Brit is, or how his Dolce & Gabbana ads make us melt, or how he is arguably the hunkiest man to step on this planet since, well, ever. But, as is the case with most sexy models, it’s best to let hi
