Retiring Tom Daley’s Speedo

At the ripe age of 30, Tom Daley just announced his retirement, which only adds to his hero status in my eyes (I tried that right around the Tim I was 30 too but it went a very different way, i.e. I’m still working). He leaves on an Olympic high, having earned a silver medal at the recent Paris Games. He has nothing left to prove, so I’m eager to see where he goes next and what he might do. Olympians rarely simply stop – it’s not usually in their make-up to not be active and excelling. As for Daley, he’s got a storied career behind him, and endless possibilities ahead. Here’s a linky look back at his appearances here, and let’s say a little prayer that he’s not quite retiring the Speedo just yet.

Tom Daley’s Crocheted Contours

Our big build-up for the Summer Olympics in Paris continues, and here we find Tom Daley in a crocheted Speedo of his own making. Not sure of the practicality of such an item, but I’ll be damned if I’m not going to be looking up YouTube tutorials on how to crochet a Speedo as soon as I finish this post. Daley is big in these parts – so big that he has his own category here, a la Madonna and Tom Ford and Naked Male Celebrities. He is likely headed back the Olympic Games, which means we haven’t seen the last of him. If you can’t wait for new material, scroll below for some links you can access right now.

The Olympic Knitter: Tom Daley

There were many joyous moments that came out of this summer’s Olympic Games in Tokyo, and the most joyous of them all may have been the sight of Olympic gold medalist Tom Daley calmly knitting in the stands after he was done competing. He’s been obsessed with knitting for some time (see the Speedo he dons in the top pic, one of his early works) and he partially credits it with keeping him centered and calm in a competitive career that he often feel overwhelming. That’s pretty awesome. 

I’ve only ever crocheted, but I know exactly what he’s talking about. There is a studied and measures tranquility when you have to take life one stitch at a time. It’s meditative in many ways, allowing the knitter to push away all distractions, clear the mind, and immerse in the simple and powerful act of creation. A ball of yarn becomes a blanket with patience and care. The tension of the yarn is tested and manipulated to best effect. The minutiae of each step are examined as carefully as the larger picture and end result. Knitting is a lesson in life. The same goes for crocheting. 

To witness an Olympian casually knitting while watching the Olympics also speaks to me on an even deeper level. When my grandmother first taught me how to crochet, it was not something I broadcast to my friends – I kept it hidden and secret to all but the safest people. I knew early on that it would not go over well with my sixth grade class – or, more accurately, it would go over all too well with all the wrong people. And so it remained a secret joy and thrill until I grew old enough not to give a fig what other people thought. 

Tom Daley just went and put it on the biggest sports stage in the world, and it gave me chills.

A Speedo-centric Recap

The Summer Olympics in Tokyo are in full bloom, as evidenced by the plethora of Olympic posts here, and the Speedo shots of some favorite Olympians. The links alone are enough for this Monday morning recap, so go on and indulge. (Special kudos to Tom Daley and Matty Lee on their gold medal, and for sprucing up this post with their Speedo poses.) See more below… 

The week kicked off with this Speedo-licious post of the aforementioned (and pictured) Tom Daley and Matty Lee.

Sandwich of the summer, in any variation you like. 

Papyrus by the pool.

A flower needing a new common name.

The lily that lasts but a day.

Summer grants an extension.

A pot plant grows in Albany.

Sunday kind of love.

Summer hurting inside.

The Olympic Spotlight shone on Artur Dalaloyan, Shane Wiskus, Tyler Downs, Andrew Capobianco, Jordan Chiles, Daiki Hashimoto, Bobby Finke, and MyKayla Skinner.

Dazzlers of the Day included Tommy DorfmanOksana Chusovitina, Hidilyn Diaz, Kate McKinnon, Simu LiuElaine Thompson-Herah, and Trayvon Bromell.

Olympic Spotlight: Tom Daley & Matty Lee

Olympic spoiler alert: read no further if you haven’t yet seen the men’s diving results. For those of us who foolishly opened our phones and saw the real-time results, continue on. Tom Daley and Matty Lee – Britain’s wondrous diving duo – just competed, completed and conquered their quest for a gold medal in these Olympic Games, and have more than earned this gold-themed Olympic spotlight. Tom Daley has been featured here so often that he has his own category (click here for the last few entries) and his diving partner Matty Lee has also appeared as a former Hunk of the Day

Dazzler of the Day: Tom Daley

His Speedo-clad form has graced this blog numerous times in the past, and as the world gears up for the summer Olympics he’s back in the Speedo again, suited up and ready to dive into his first crowning as Dazzler of the Day. This is Tom Daley and he needs no other introduction thanks to posts like this and this and most especially this. He’s been on competitive fire lately, with his diving partner Matty Lee, and the world waits with breathless anticipation for what the pair will bring to the Olympic pool.

Tom Daley: Shirtless Lunch Break

It wouldn’t have been my choice for a sofa pattern, but I’m not Tom Daley or his husband. Besides, it works for photos like these, in which Mr. Daley illustrates some home workout exercises. And doing it shirtless guarantees that people will pay attention. If you’re like me, and the only exercise involves lifting Easter candy to your mouth or shaking the remote as it runs out of batteries, then you need this too. Or we can just look and wish and hope that when this ordeal is over we haven’t gained the quarantine fifteen. If you like this post, visit this Tom Daley page for a lot more skin-happy links

Merry Christmas from Tom Daley

Tom Daley gets to wake before those of us in America, so this Merry Christmas message is from him and his low-hanging mistletoe. That’s all I got for Christmas: clickbait. Still, it’s better than coal. Go make your own merry. Come back tonight for a recap…

Tom Daley in His Undies

For his first 2017 post Tom Daley shall be seen in his underwear, which is really the only way he should be seen anywhere. He gave his best at the 2016 Olympics, and he continues training for his diving career. Preferably in his chosen outfit, the Speedo.

Getting Tom Daley’s Ass

I feel like there must be more to getting Tom Daley’s butt than this relatively simple workout. Of course, it’s just the first in a series of six videos in which Mr. Daley promises to show us how to get the perfect posterior before the summer goes away. Still, I feel he’s holding back. Like some master chef who refuses to give out the secret key ingredient of what makes his recipes so wonderful, I bet Daley is keeping some piece of ass-making wisdom solely to himself. Not that I blame him. Some things are too good to share.

Cutest Olympic Pair: Dan & Tom

While David Boudia and Steele Johnson may have the hold on Sexiest Olympic Pair, Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow are arguably the Cutest Pair to medal with Olympic Glory. As we ooh and ogle over the fittest forms the world has to offer, it’s a good moment to remember that, perhaps more than anything else, the Olympics are about teamwork. There are definitely (I was absolutely riveted by a women’s volleyball game, for instance, even more than a men’s swimming event, and that goes to show you just how powerful the pull of human teamwork can be). In this instance, we have the best of both worlds.

Tom Daley is no stranger to these pages, from reading in his Speedo to jumping around in his Speedo to doing it all almost without his Speedo. Dan Goodfellow is a newcomer here, but stay tuned for his impending Hunk of the Day honor. Taken together, they spun through the air in glorious tandem, and with enough skill to earn a medal.

A Tom Daley Treat

Get ready for Tom Daley to make a big splash in just a few weeks, as he squares off in the summer Olympics in Rio. As a Speedo-clad tease to that Brazilian treat, here’s a fun photo-shoot that Mr. Daley recently did. It shows off a cheeky, humorous side that more Olympians need. Mr. Daley is big enough to have his own Category here, just like David Beckham, Ben Cohen, Tom Ford, and Madonna. That’s elite.
