Separated at Birth: Cheeky Brits Copy American Water Polo Team

Back in October, the lovely All-American lasses on the US Water Polo team graced the cover of the ESPN the Magazine the Body Issue in their collective birthday suits. Tastefully, of course.

Well, leave it up to the no good British to seize on the opportunity to flat out copy the shoot.

Only, in typical Euro fashion, they image appears to be much more grimy and dingy (top photo), and is much tougher on the eyes.

But I mean, come on. Stylistically, this is a direct rip-off.

7. Yankees vs. Red Sox at Fenway - AGREED

6. America's Cup -- UMM, SURE

5. Tour de France -- BEYOND DRESSING UP IN A DEVIL CUSTOM AND CHASING PEOPLE, I DON'T SEE THE APPEAL.

4. North Carolina vs. Duke at Cameron Indoor Stadium - AGREED.

3. Wimbledon -- ONLY TO CHECK OUT THE CHICKS.

Not a single football game? Come on, the big college rivalries are the best thing to see in sports. Talk about pumped up crowds.

Thanks for nothing, Rick.
