Sam Jones Heats Up the 1981 'Battle of the Network Stars'


I'm not saying there aren't a lot of hot guys on television these days. But you'd be hard-pressed to find a more impressive line-up than what was doing battle on ABC back in 1981, including Mark Harmon, Lorenzo Lamas, Doug Barr, Scott Baio and 6-3 "Flash Gordon" stud Sam Jones, whose 1975 Playgirl spread under the name Andrew Cooper III is definitely rated "Code Red" for HOT!

See it all HERE.

I have not seen these photos in yearrrrrsssss...1989 to be exact room when i found a whole stash of playgirls ..and i mean stacksssss in my families storage room. i read each one cover to cover and memorized each one.... till one day, i was found out and told to throw it all in the garbage or else.... i was confronted ..yes confronted of my sexuality that day and i have to say kinda confused... but coming from a very religious and immigrant family being gay was like a curse.... so i said nothing and said i just thought having porn was cool ..ofcourse sheepishly... to this day that day of confrontation sends chills up my spine...as did this post hehe

Ah, those were the days when shorts were short, and men were not afraid to wear Speedoes in public. Happy Days!

I used to wear out the VCR tapes from Battle of the Network Stars, and wear myself out at the same time. Wow, I had forgotten how hot Andrew Stevens (Mr. Kate Jackson for a while) and hello, Jared Martin from "Dallas." Wow.

I was in Malibu to see them tape BotNS in 1978. James MacArthur, Bruce Jenner, Jane Curtin, Debby Boone, Gabe Kaplan, Howard Cosell, Melissa Gilbert, Parker Stevenson, Suzanne Somers, Alan Hamill, Tony Randall, and Richard Benjamin are the "stars" I have in my pictures.
