Garrett McNamara is a big wave surfer based out of Hawaii who just last year was confirmed as having ridden the biggest wave in history.

Justin Gimelstob Would Like You To Watch The Australian Open Mixed Doubles Final
Former professional tennis player and all-world manly man—as in sex-with-ladies manly man—Justin Gimelstob is at it again (here, "at it again" is open to interpretation, but most likely means "reminding you he is a thing that exists").

Bills Guard Andy Levitre Tweeted Out A Photo With Some Inadvertent Side Boob (NSFW-ish)
Andy Levitre has been a mainstay on the Buffalo Bills offensive line since being drafted in 2009.

In December 2011, Rick Reilly wrote one of his trademark telethon-monologue columns about then-37-year-old kicker David Akers, who'd overcome all manner of personal hardship to kick a bunch of field goals for the 49ers.
