The hot new pictures sweeping the blogging world are of Sara Boberg, a Swede who many blogs are claiming is on the country's "Olympic crossbow team." 

It's times like this when I wonder how people can be so lazy and stupid but still manage to operate a computer.  I'm pretty dumb, but even I can figure out enough to cross-check names against the Olympic athlete database.  And whaddaya know, Sara Boberg isn't on the Swedish Olympic team at all. 

Oh yeah, there's also the annoying little fact that "crossbow" isn't an Olympic sport.  It never has been.  But I guess someone saw Sara Boberg, saw her boobs, and saw the word "crossbow," and that was all the research they needed.

Anyway, the original source of the photos — and most likely the "crossbow" idiocy — is this NSFW forum, which also shows Boberg on a medal podium and with a quiver of arrows, so I think it's safe to say she's an archer.  A very very naked archer.  Sorry, but I happen to think people should get the details right.

Mmmmm… horse racing and archery — two great tastes that go great together!  Yes, at long last, Hungarian master Lajos Kassai has reinvigorated the ancient Mongolian practice of horseback archery as a sport.

The archery technique used in the sport is the more than two thousand year old instinctive archery rather then [sic] the 50 year old modern archery, that lays the emphasis on the equipment, using more and more devices on the bow such as arrow rest, sight, [and] stabilizers. Shooting from the middle of the chest might be a disadvantage on the ground but it is the only successful method from horseback.

Well, this is disappointing.  When I heard they combined horseback riding and archery, I figured everyone in the stands at the Belmont Stakes got a bow and arrow to fire at the track.  But I guess that would break some kind of law for being too awesome or something.

Something tells me this robust archer doesn't hunt game with his mighty bow: 

What a shot!  It looks like Baby Huey employed the "3-Fingers-Under" release there.  It's also called the "Apache" release by some archers.  Hmm, three fingers under the shaft?  If a lovely bowstress has me in that release grip, I call it "Rounding Third and Heading for Home". -KD
