What better way to celebrate football season than having some quirky, pin-up style football themed photoshoots from the TNA Knockouts! Five of the fiercest footballers – Tara, Brooke Tessmacher, Mickie James, SoCal Val and Traci Brooks – have teamed up with Lee South and don’t they look fabulous? Much like any other cheesy photoshoot-themed posts OSD has had in the past, there will be ratings… A Ballin’ (No, that’s basketball…) Touchdown ranking out of five footballs.

After you’ve checked out all of the shoots and the comments, we’d like to hear what you have to say by voting below!

I’d like to thank Kris and Sean for helping me out with the information regarding American Football, I’m not exactly UK-footy-savvy, let alone having any knowledge on US football! Apologies if any information isn’t entirely accurate. I tried!

Tara – Chicago Bears

Tara adds a funky twist to the Bears’ uniform, opting for an orange bikini top with her jersey and super-cute girlie boxers. In typical Tara fashion, she does something a little bit extra by donning ’54′ on her stomach, which makes her shoot more football-ish. While casually working navy, orange and white like a pro, Tara efforlessly maintains a seductive vibe throughout the photoshoot. Her shoot was definitely one of my favourites.

Mickie James – Dallas Cowboys

If I had the chance to go for either the team’s usual fugly colour scheme or the cute, pink version, I’d do what Mickie did. Not only has she settled for a pink version of the Dallas Cowboys jersey, she’s given her look a little “Hardcoreee Countryyy” flare with denim cut-offs and pigtails. It seems that Mickie’s trying a little too hard to be sexy by either pouting to the camera or opening her mouth. It may be because I’m not a bloke, but I’m not feeling it. Mickie has a killer smile, it would have been nice if she had at least one shot of her smiling.

SoCal Val – Denver Broncos

When you think of Knockouts’ themed photoshoots, you think of SoCal Val, right? I know I do and so does Lee South. Val has a pin-up look about her and brings a classier element to this set of photoshoots. Plus, her red hair looks amazing with the navy Broncos’ jersey. Teamed with a cute miniskirt and knee-high socks, SoCal Val looks sweet. While Val keeps things classy, her poses are a little dull. It’s nice to see her crack a smile between pouty poses, but she doesn’t look like she’s having much fun. Plus, the shot where she’s hugging the ball is a bit weird.

Traci Brooks – San Diego Chargers

Traci Brooks is back in action and showing the other Knockouts how it’s done, rocking a full-on football kit and posing with a football. My guess is that more shots of Traci are coming soon, as we even get a peek into a locker room, which makes for a more interesting picture. Let’s face it, the white background is really dull, so hopefully any other shots with the lockers won’t disappoint! As for now, I think this photoshoot is ever so slightly dull, as Traci doesn’t really mix up her facial expressions and needs to put her arse crack away.

Brooke Tessmacher – Houston Texans

Brooke wins. Hands down. Touchdown. Whatever. She wins, with added style points! Brooke quite clearly wears her team’s jersey with pride as she goes all in for this shoot and has everything on-point with this photoshoot from the football elements to the pin-up style. She’s smiling, she’s pouting and she’s playful! It all makes for a really fun, yet sexy photoshoot. The bandana around her left ankle is different, but sassy and draws attention towards her killer shoes. Sure, they won’t be too practical on the football field, but they’re uber-sexy and when teamed with those micro shorts, compliment Brooke’s luscious legs.

You’ve had my opinion, now we’d like yours! Who was the fiercest footballer? Vote below!
