En "mötesvecka" i januari

Det blev inte så mycket idrott under den här veckan i januari. Istället hade jag möjlighet att närvara vid tre olika möten för tre olika ämnen.
Först var det manifestationen på Sergels Torg till minne av Fadime Sahindal, som hedersmördades av sin egen far för 7 år sedan. Det var ovanligt lite folk som hade samlats detta år men det kan bero både på vädret och att en del, som normalt hade varit med, hade andra åtaganden just denna dag.
Som alltid fanns dock Sara Mohammad och Inger Stark med.


Birgitta Ohlsson fanns också på plats, som alltid med ett klart och enkelt budskap när det gäller flickor, kvinnor och även pojkars rätt att själva välja vilket liv, och med vem, man vill leva.




En ny bekantskap denna gång var Nilla Nielsen som stod för det musikaliska inslagen under manifestationen







Nästa möte var en paneldebatt i Tumba om Gazafrågan. Det var Alby Turkiska Ungdomsförening som arrangerat det hela och inbjudna panelmedlemmar var Adam Cwejman (LUF), Niklas Wykman (MUF), Mehmet Kaplan (MP) och Maria Ferm (Grön Ungdom).
Maria Ferm och Niklas Wykman har ju stött på varandra tidigare och trots att deras ståndpunkter står långt ifrån varandra i de flesta ämnen kunde de i alla fall ungås både före och efter mötet.


Lite sent, efter en resa med tidsomställning (som förklaring), kom även MP:s Mehmet Kaplan till mötet. Som, så ofta vid den här typen av möten, där tanken är att åhörarna ska få en möjlighet att ställa frågor/debattera med de inbjudna blev det på slutet tidsbrist vilket en del mötesdeltagare hade vissa synpunkter på. Till del beror ju det ofta på att publiken inte är vana att ställa korta frågor utan en del vill hellre lägga fram sina egna synpunkter, och gärna så utförligt som möjligt.



Med två deltagare från samma parti blev Maria Ferm, efter Mehmet Kaplans ankomst, möjligen något hämmad men klarade sig ändå väldigt bra i de, som alltid i denna fråga, svåra avvägande som de humanitära insatserna visavi de säkerhetspolitiska aspekterna utgör.


Det tredje mötet under en vecka var Fotbollsalliansens. De hade bjudit in till ett heldagsseminarium om Fotbollshuliganismen.
Maria Edholm Chami, projektledare för Huliganpäron, höll i allt praktiskt och svarade även på allt som rörde Huliganpäron. Först bland de inbjudna talarna var Nikolaus Koutakis från Örebro Univesitet som talade om en modell (ÖPP) som används för att hjälpa förldrar när det gäller droger och alkohol. Frågan var hur denna metod kunde överföras till problematiken kring fotbollsvåldet.
Nästa talare var Anna-Lena Lodenius Wikström, känd journalist och författare när det gäller de grupper i samhället som i många fall söker sig till det våld som omger vissa delar av fotbollen. Tyvärr hade jag inte tid att stanna och lyssna på Anna-Lena den här gången men av vad jag hört och läst tidigare är jag säker på att deltagarna även denna gång blev nöjda med hennes föreläsning.

7th inning stretch: Kate Mara

This week's stretch is not much of one. When the Super Bowl kicks off Sunday, Kate Mara will be enthusiastically backing the Steelers. The Shooter hottie is the great-granddaughter of Pittsburgh Steelers founder Art Rooney. When the Steelers won in 2006 Mara was working on a movie and missed it so she now puts it in contract that if Pittsburgh or the New York Giants (more on that later) makes the Super Bowl she gets to go. That's our kind of girl!

Now, about the Giants ... her great-grandfather Tim Mara founded the franchise and her grandfather, the late Wellington Mara, owned the team. Her uncle, John, is the squad's president and CEO while her dad, Chris Mara, is the Giants' vice-president of player evaluation. Wow! That'd be a nice family to join.

However, Kate certainly has her own charms. She is charming, in a shy kind of way, in interviews and has become a solid actress. I first noticed her in the failed drama Jack and Bobby, where she was the pot smoker who dated a track star whose brother would become president. I also liked her in 24. She was also a cheerleader in We Are Marshall.

As far as looks go, she is an intresting mix. She has a great little body, amazing eyes, nice lips, great hair and a pretty face. Mara has this cute and innocent thing going on but is still definitely sexy.

Check out a good interview with her at Esquire, which is where the pic above is from.

Sexy swimmer Beard not dating Thorpe

Apparently former Playboy poser Amanda Beard is not dating former Australian swimming champ Ian Thorpe. Is this news? Well, not really but it gives us the excuse to run a pic of lovely Amanda. What do you think of the lighter hair?
As well, this news might also lend credit to the rumors that Thorpe is gay.

Is "big" Jessica Simpson curvy?

Have you seen the "fat photos" of Jessica Simpson at a chilli cookoff? The Ms. Tony Romo looks a little more buxom than usual. Although the "mom jeans" aren't exactly the best look, but what do you think of her increased curves. Is she sexy?

Her photos have attracted quite the media storm of attention. Even her little sister got in on it and defended her big sis. However, was it all for nothing? Think Fashion has posted pics of Jessica in tight leather pants that it says show she isn't really as big as the former photos made her look.

What do you think? Is the chilli cookoff Jess hot?

Girls of the Super Bowl

While the men get all the attention at the Super Bowl, there are plenty of hotties around for our enjoyment around. Rhianna rocked this sexy black outfit at the Pepsi Smash Super Bowl XLIII Bash.
Country songbird Faith Hill will add her MILF touch to the pre-game festivities, along with John Legend.
Before the game gets going, Jennifer Hudson will perform the national anthem. How do you feel about Ms. Dream Girls? Hottie? Attractive? Ordinary?
Then the Boss - Bruce Springsteen himself - and the E Street Band will rock the world. The band of course includes Bruce's wife, Patti Scialfa. I have always thought that the redhead, a talented singer/songwriter, has been an underrated older hottie.

Matt Leinart's ladies

Unless something disastrous happens or there is a blowout, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart will not take a snap against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, don't feel bad for the former USC golden boy and Heisman winner. Just look at some of the ladies he has allegedly bedded.

There is Brynn Cameron, his baby mama. Although they had a big of a public dispute over payments and visitation rights, recent articles say the pair are friends. Cameron has a unique, athletic, California kind of look. The USC basketball player has been pretty good on the court recently, earning a Pac-10 Player of the Week award.

He also used to allegedly date Paris Hilton, the hotel heiress, reality TV star, "star" of the bomb Hottie and the Nottie and ... well ... sex tape superstar. Except for the fact that she is famous for being famous, I really don't get Paris' appeal. She doesn't seem real friendly and there are concerns about her smarts. I really don't think she is really that smoking hot.

Kristin Cavallari also apparently landed the Super Bowl bound pivot. Her claim to fame was her role in Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and she has appeared in some TV shows (Veronica Mars, CSI: New York) and is set to be some movies. Her career might not be amazing, but she is nice to look at. She has a nice body, a pretty face and great smile.

Steelers or Cardinals: Who has the hottest WAGs?

Who will win the Super Bowl on the field Sunday? The bigger question is who has the hottest wives and girlfriends.
Check out the Cardinals contingent, including Rachel Rackers (wife of kicker Neil Rackers) here.
If you want to check out the Steelers wives and cute girlfriends, click here. Both links take you to WagRankings.com pages.
My vote goes to the Steelers. Big Ben's girl Missy Peregrym is hot, while Mike Tomlin's wife Kiya as girl next door charm. As for the Cardinals crew, there are some beautiful ladies but Brenda Warner scares me. This former Marine could seriously hurt me.

WAG of the Week: Missy Peregrym

This Canadian hottie is allegedly dating Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger or she once did ... I keep reading conflicting reports. Anyway, what seems to be true is that Big Ben has a good eye for the ladies. He, of course, once dated stunning LPGA golfer Natalie Gulbis.

Ben seems to like the athletic types as Missy Peregrym was active in a variety of spots in high school. She still sports a great athletic bod and great long legs.

Missy currently stars as a love interest in Reaper and was on Heroes for a bit. She certainly doesn't mind being on shows with other hotties as she has had guest stints on Heroes, Smallville, the Chris Isaak Show, Dark Angel, Jake 2.0 and appeared in the atrocious Catwoman with Halle Barry.

Sexy Sportscaster of the Week: Jillian Reynolds/Jillian Barberie

Is a weather girl a sportscaster? Well, its Super Bowl time and we are football crazy so we say Yes! Plus, Chickipedia included this looker in its feature on Sexy Sideline Reporters.
Jillian Reynolds (formerly Jillian Barberie) is known in sports circles as the weather girl on Fox NFL Sunday. It is way easier to look at her than Terry Bradshaw.

Reynolds is best known for her great rack and non-stop talking. She freely admits she is opinionated and likes to go on and on and on ... But, she looks good, has admitted to being a bisexual in spite of being married, is on a football show and was once married to former major league baseball player Bret Barberie. She is hot enough to have two profiles on Chickipedia.com - one as Reynolds and one as Barberie.

The Good Day LA co-host is a utility player for Fox and serves as a co-host for American Idol Extra, which many of our wives, girlfriends, mothers and pre-teen cousins probably watch. To catch her on a more adult show, check out this clip of her with hot talk show hostess Chelsea Handler.

WAG news: Wife of New England Patriot arrested

The wife of New England Patriot Richard Seymour has been arrested. According to MediaTakeOut.com, the mother of four and a friend took out their anger regarding Richard's alleged infidelities.

WLTX.com is reporting that Tanya Seymour is charged with two degree of lynching stemming from an assault at a New Year's Eve party. She is being detained at the Richland County Jail.

Sorry for the delays

Hey. I'm back. Sorry for the delays in posting your favorite daily features. I am back and will get you some new pics to drool over soon!
Thanks

What cheerleaders do when they put down the pom poms

So, what do cheerleaders do when they are done cheering? Apparently they go on to be hot television and movie actresses and presenters, such as Kristin Adams, formerly Kristin Holt, of G4's Cheat! Check out this great feature on Chickipedia.com.

Hottie Athlete of the Week: Anita Marks

Well, it is Super Bowl week so we need to focus on football, football, football! So, what do we do for the Sports Hottie of the Week. We just have to go with a retired QB. Even after a few years of retirement, Brett Favre will never look as good as Anita Marks.

Marks played for women's pro football for the Miami Fury for four years and suited up for the Florida Stingrays for a season. According to her website, the South Dakota-born but Florida raised Marks had great arm strength and pinpoint accuracy on her passes. Her site boats she is one of the best QBs to ever play women's football (is that an accomplishment?).

Now Marks is a radio sports jock for 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore. She recently inked a contract to stay for another year. This was seemingly not good news to some of the station's listeners.

Her voice and opinions might not impress the Baltimore sports faithful, but her looks must. Marks, who appeared in Playboy in 2002, is an interesting combination. I think her face looks a lot like Sarah Jessica Parker's. Pics on her website show her snuggling with a pooch and just like SJP, Marks can pull off that "cute .. aaah" look. However, unlike Mrs. Matthew Broderick, Marks can also look pretty hot. I think her somewhat unusual mane only adds to her look and she has a pretty hot little body. Check out some more pics on her website.

So, for Super Bowl week, we celebrate the QB!

Hor or Not: Serena Williams

With nine Grand Slam singles titles (and seven doubles and two mixed doubles), there is no doubt that Serena Williams is one of the best tennis players perhaps ever. However, there is great debate about whether she is a hottie. Just check out these comments about her "nude" pic in the now defunct Jane magazine a couple years back.

Is her amazing muscled and toned body too masculine for you? Would you worry that she could crush you with her thighs? Does her at times fierce on court competitiveness scare you?

Or do you you like how she is not some size zero waif? Are you an impressed spectacular of her impressive rack(et) and booty-liciousness body? Have you fallen for her mix of girly dresses and self-confidence?

So, is Serena Williams hot or not?

Weekend wrap

Erin Andrews was in the house at Notre Dame - and stealing seats! But she looked good while doing it.

The hotties are disappearing! No. 1 ranked Jelena Jankovic (pictured) was bounced from the Australian Open. As was cutie Alize Cornet. Serena Williams was pushed but cracked the semis when her competition had to withdraw due to stomach problems. The hotties remaining at the Open include Serena, Elena Dementieva, home country fave Jelena Dokic and Russian Vera Zvonareva.


The "old girl" of U.S. skating. Alissa Czisny, took the women's singles title at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships. Although Keauna McLaughlin (pictured) battled the flu, she helped her team win their second consecutive pairs title.

U.S. skiier Lindsey Vonn missed the podium - finishing 8th in Super G - but still increased her overall World Cup lead.

Catriona Matthew, a pregnant 39-year-old, won an LPGA exhibition in Brazil. Cuties Kristy McPherson (pictured) and Angela Park were second and third.

Another reason to hate jocks: Football player scores Olympic hottie

Gymnastic hottie Alicia Sacramone is apparently dating Brown University defensive back Eric Hunt. How on earth did she choose him over me?
Is it the fact that he is an athlete? Or, as he is at Brown, probably pretty smart? Or, as a girl here says, handsome? I just don't get it.
If you want to torture yourself check out more pics of the Olympic beauty and the guy at The Big Lead.

Fantasies do come true! Footballer screws in centre circle

Having been recently transfer-listed because of reported gambling matters Dino Drpic of Dinamo Zagreb is not having the best luck of lately. However, don't feel too bad for him.

He is married to this frool-worthy model Nives Celzijus. While promoting her book called Gola Istina (The Naked Truth), she told a Serbian talk show:

"Dino had arranged that people should turn on the stadium lights for us and he finally fulfilled his dream of having sex in the middle of a football pitch. It was very naughty."

Now what of my dream of making sweet, sweet love to Anna Kournikova on the Yankee Stadium mound after I tear off her Princess Leia bikini? Can my company make that dream come true?

Check out the full story on the soccer couple at the Daily Mail.

Ana upset! So sad!

The gorgeous Ana Ivaovic was upset at the Australian Open by 19-year-old Russian Alisa Kleybanova. Also losing out was the leggy Daniela Hantuchova, No. 19, who lost to the cute Alize Cornet.
As we will have no more Ana to watch in this major, I thought you might enjoy the above photo.

Cutie Alissa Czisny leads way at nationals

There was a lot of talk about the youngsters and the new faces who would be competing at this year's United States Figure Skating Championships. However, after the short program, 21-year-old Bowling Green State University cutie Alissa Czisny (above with former Canadian skater Liz Manley) is in the lead. She is certainly someone worth cheering for.

Seventh Inning Stretch: Marisa Tomei

It is Friday, so let's make a stretch and take a look at a lovely lady who is not exactly tied to sports.

This Italian American has attracted a lot of attention lately - and not all of it because of her good looks. Marisa Tomei has been nominated for best supporting actress Oscar for playing an aging stripper in The Wrestler, with the title role of the washed-up star embodied by Mickey Rourke. Tomei, who also got a Golden Globes nom for the role, already has an Academy Award for her hilarious performance in My Cousin Vinny.

I once tried to go see Daredevil in order to stare at the amazing Jennifer Garner. However, the movies switched (I was a moron and read the paper wrong) I ended up seeing Anger Management instead and was pleased to get to see this hottie on the big screen.

Along with her obvious acting talent, Tomei has great hair, an amazing smile and, although they are not amazing, nice breasts. A friend of mine says Tomie is a little too skinny now (check her out on Ellen), but I still think she looks fine. Although her character in The Wrestler worries about aging, this 40-something has aged like a fine wine. OK, big time cliche! But it's true.

AskMen screws over female athletes

I love AskMen.com. It is always a great read and has lots of photos of lovely ladies to look at. However, the site has me fired up as its Top 99 Most Desirable Women list has overlooked some extremely gorgeous and hot athletes and former athletes.

In total, the AskMen list, topped by Eva Mendes, includes seven athletes: . This is including two former "wrestlers," we can have the debate about whether they are actually athletes later.

Here is my top 10 of the sports ladies who were overlooked by AskMen and should be given their due:
10. Amanda Beard - I always thought that Beard had a unique face that could be gorgeous in some photos and at times a little less so, but former Playboy covergirl's toned body is definitely hot.
9. Gro Hammerseng - This stunning Norwegian handballer would rank even higher, except that she is dating a handballer - a cute female teammate. It's not that we have anything against this, it just means that she probably won't join us in bed.
8. Jelena Jankovic - Currently ranked No. 1 in the world, the exotic Serb is looking for her first major title - and looking good while doing it. She also always has something funny to say.
7. Alicia Sacramone - This U.S. gymnast wasn't at her best on the mat this summer but she still showed she is one of the best in the world. As well, her looks had us mesmerized. She is trying to get into fashion and I caught her on a Golden Globes red carpet show earlier this month (the wife made me watch it, OK?)
6. Karina Petroni - Is surfing a sport? This girl is just gorgeous.
5. Alexandra Orlando - The Canadian rhythmic gymnast topped webtv.hub's list of the 50 sexiest female competitors at the Olympics this summer.
4. Anna Rawson - Forget about Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman, Rawson is the real Aussie stunner. She has earned a spot on the LPGA tour for the 2009 season.
3. Lauren Jackson - Another Aussie. The Olympian, Seattle Storm hoopster and WNBA MVP is a tall drink of water - and I have never looked at water like this before. She doesn't mind doing nude shoots. That is a definite bonus.
2. Ashley Force - The drag racer is known for her speed on the track, for being John Force's little girl and for her killer good looks. In 2007, she topped an AOL Sports Poll for being the hottest athlete - male or female.
1. Natalie Gulbis - This girl makes golf worth watching. She is amazing to look at and has a fun personality.

So, that is my top 10 and I didn't even include retired athletes like Anna Kournikova (I mean, how can they leave her off) or Gabrielle Reece.
As well, I didn't include such hotties as softball hurlers Jennie Finch and Cat Osterman, tennis star Jelena Jankovic, golfer Cristie Kerr, snowboarder Gretchen Bleiler, soccer goalie Hope Solo, Serena and Venus Williams ...

Keibler is highest ranked athlete on AskMen's hottie list

Is wrestling a sport? I don't know, but on AskMen.com’s Top 99 Most Desirable Women list former WWE and WCW wrestler, manager and Nitro Girl Stacy Keibler. The former Dancing With The Stars dancer is No. 39 on the list. In November of 2008, the amazingly leggy Keibler was tabbed as the World's Hottest Athlete by InGameNow.

AskMen.com's list is filled with some gorgeous women. It includes WAGs such as Tony Parker's Eva Longoria (No. 45) and Tom Brady's Gisele Bundchen (No. 28) as well Sports Illustrated Swimsuit models Marisa Miller (No. 3) and Carolyn Murphy (No. 84).

The list is topped by Eva Mendes, with Meagan Fox, Miller, Keeley Hazell and Anne Hathaway rounding out the top five.

Besides Keibler, the other "athletes" or former athletes on the list are:
No. 73 Gina Carano
No. 83 Maria Sharapova
No. 86: Leryn Franco
No. 87: Torrie Wilson
No. 91: Danica Patrick
No. 96: Ana Ivanovic

Cheerleader of the Week: Blackhawks Ice Girl Ashley Graham

This week we will try to answer the important question: Are ice girls cheerleaders?
Well, as the lovely Ashley Graham of the Chicago Blackhawks Ice Crew shows these NHL backers are definitely as good looking as the LA Laker Girls or the Dallas Cowgirls.
Also, both cheerleaders and ice crews are entrusted with pumping up the crowds and meeting and greeting horny fans.

While I don't know about dance routines, I'd argue the ice crew job might even be harder because you have be on skates (although some team members are in the stands) and help clean the ice.

These duties came naturally to our girl Ashley. She has been skating since about four, her dad played at the University of Wisconsin and her uncle, Phil Russell, was a three-time all-star blue liner for the Blackhawks. As well, she played girls hockey in high school. Check out Ashley's Ice Crew profile here and a nice piece in her local paper last year here.

Hamm honoured with logo

The upstart Women's Professional Soccer league was smart in choosing who its logo should look like. They chose, of course, Mrs. Nomar Garciaparra - Mia Hamm. The U.S.'s all-time top scorer, Hamm is as nice to look at as she was good on the field. For an update on her life now, check out this ESPN story.

Venus, Sesil out at Aussie Open

The tennis world is a little shook up today with the news that Venus Williams has been ousted at the Australian Open. I like Venus as both a player and a hottie so it is disappointing the leggy star won't be around anymore.

However, I am also disappointed that the lesser known Sesil Karatantcheva was also knocked out. The Bulgarian blonde is a looker for sure. She also pretty good with a funny quote or a boast. As well, she has an interesting story. Sesil was suspended for a couple years for failing a dope test. It was fun to watch her win a bit in her first really big tournament since coming back from the suspension. Hopefully this stunner can light up our TV sets at some more majors this year.

Erin Andrews gallery gone, but will be back

Apparently there was no foul play in a gallery of more than 750 photos of ESPN sports hottie Erin Andrews disappearing from the web. It appears all the hits on the MrSec site caused it to crash.

Because of this they have removed the gallery for now but vow we will soon be able to ogle the beautiful Ms. Andrews soon. The boys at Kornheiser's Cartel have filled up thee free time waiting for the gallery to return by mocking our sweetheart. Shame on them.

Austrian hottie Marlies Schild voted country's sexiest athlete

Austrians like Marlies Schild. They like her a lot.
The 27-year-old cutie skier (second photo) topped an Austrian Times poll of the country's sexiest athlete. Schild, who is out of World Cup action with an injury, earned 59.3 percent of the votes.

I think she is pretty cute, but for my money second-place Fabienne Nadarajah (top pic) is way sexier. The sexy swimmer has a nice mix of tone and femininity. I'd put her up against Playboy's Amanda Beard any day of the week.

Rounding the top four in the Austrian Times poll were pool player Jasmin Ouschan and triathlete Lisa Hütthaler.

WAG of the Week: Coleen Rooney

Forget about Posh Spice. The at times skeletal fashion plate/Mrs. David Beckham has nothing on our girl Coleen Rooney. In case you live in North America and don't know who she is, well ... you are missing out.

The former Coleen McLoughlin is married to Wayne Rooney, a standout soccer player (or footballer as they are known), who has starred for England and Manchester United. Coleen has known Rooney since they were 12 and the pair have been together since they were 16. She has used her attachment to him to launch a variety of careers and earn herself millions of dollars. Married in 2008, Coleen has written for Closer and OK!, been a television presenter, been the face of the LG Electronics Chocolate phone campaign and Asda, had her own exercise DVD and even published an autobiography.

But the real reason we like her is her looks. I think she has an interesting face: kind of cute, girls next door like.
A buddy of mine complains constantly that her body is not hot. However, check out these other swimsuit pics from the Daily Mail and I doubt you will complain. She is not Jessica Biel toned, but really who is? Her chest is not huge, but a nice size and she has a cute bum.

What do you think? Does this WAG have it?

Ice skating wardrobe malfunction

With the Super Bowl coming up, the memories of Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction are coming flooding back. However, compared to what happened to Russian skater Ekaterina Rubleva at the European championships, it was nothing.

Rubleva showed the world a breastleva when her dress slipped down. She might not be Salma Hayek up top, but this beautiful woman has nothing to be ashamed about.
Check out this Daily Mail story for a complete, NSFW photo of what happened as well as video.

We love you Erin ... and so do lots of others

I was so happy this morning when I saw that Mr. Sec had posted a gallery of more than 750 photos of Erin Andrews! So, I spent some time looking at the many, many pics they had compiled of the ESPN sports hottie. However, when I try now to go to MrSec.com, it tells me the page has been suspended. Who could be mad about hundreds of photos of the most beautiful woman in sports broadcasting being posted?

So, instead of giving you a link to photos of our lovely Erin, we have some other Andrews stuff for you:
1. The Playboy America's Sexiest Sportscaster 2009 poll has had its contestants reduced to just five. Thankfully Erin, last year's champ, is still in the running. The other finalists are the talent Bonnie Bernstein of ESPN, Fox's Charissa Thompson, up and comer Molly Sullivan of the MountainWest Sports Network, and girl next door Lauren Shehadi of CBSsports.com.

2. It appears that Erin's presence can be distracting to players - even bench warmers! Here is what Ohio State's Mark Titus, who averages about a minute a game, had to say, according to the ESPN the Magazine online:

"Last night we beat Indiana in a game that I admittedly had no idea was going on until there was about five minutes left in the first half," he writes. "It goes without saying that there was one reason and one reason only why I was so distracted during the game, but I'll say it anyway. My main squeeze, Erin Andrews-Titus, was in attendance and looked like a trillion dollars."

3. A sportswriter fulfills his fantasy of a date with Erin Andrews ... sort of.

4. Our fave sportsreporter has a sister ... who is pretty cute too.

Anna to be a mama?

Is it true that our girl Anna Kournikova (also known as the hottest former professional athlete ever) is going to be a mom? The blogs, including this one, are stirred up by Anna in a white, loose fitting top during a day out on the boat with that lucky Enrique Iglesias and friends. So, she must be pregnant, right? The thought, of course, is that Anna never hides her fantastic body so something must be up. Even in this shirt she still shows off some of her many assets.

Sports Illustrated swimsuit hottie makes early round more fun

Sometimes the early rounds at majors can be pretty dull. Thanks to Andy Roddick's squeeze, things were not that way early on this year at the Australian Open. Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition stunner Brooklyn Decker was in the stands. She looked great in a white linen summer dress and sported the huge diamond ring he bought her.
He might not be a favourite to win, but Roddick gets a salute from us.

Sportscaster (writer) of the Week: Carrie Stroup

Ok, so week 3 and I am already stretching the rules. Is Gambling911.com senior writer Carrie Stroup really a sportscaster or sportswriter?
Well, she does write - a lot - and she is hot! So, yes!

Looks: If the pic doesn't convince you, this Florida beauty was Miss World United States and competed for the United States at the Miss World 2001 Pageant. In 1998, she was Miss United States Teen.

Success: Carrie writes a lot about sports and betting. The Super Bowl is a big time of year for her. Plus she has been on Scrubs and also appeared as herself on Sunset Tan and Wild Girls Vegas.

Personality: I have never met her, but a hot girl who writes about sports and gambling? What's not to like?

Hot or Not: Monica Seles

This is your chance to have your say instead of just reading my ramblings. So, is Monica Seles a hottie? My gut was that the grunter was far from a tennis stunner like Steffi Graf. However, friends have argued otherwise and I must admit this pic from 2008 doesn't look too bad. What do you think?
No matter how you vote, Seles will still be honored. She has been selected for the tennis hall of fame.

Go Danica! Super Bowl ads leaked

Heard about sexy IndyCar driver Danica Patrick's Go Daddy.com Super Bowl ads? Check them out here at the NFL FanHouse.

Sports Hottie of the Week: Jelena Jankovic

With the Australian Open starting, Jelena Jankovic is ranked No. 1 in the world. In many men's hearts, she holds a similar ranking. The smiling Serb has a lot to offer.

Looks: Jelena has an amazing nice body, which features great legs. The 5-foot-10 beauty also has a stunning smile. She definitely has a unique look. No wonder YouTube watchers enjoy videos like videos such as this one and this other one.

Personality: JJ can be a bit of a drama queen and her injury timeouts can be frustrating, but ... she is a great interview and is almost always funny. Check this out from ESPN today about the hot courts:

JJ has some good ideas: Here's a novel idea to keep cool, courtesy of the always entertaining Jelena Jankovic.

Q: Can you get [Jankovic's shoe sponsor] to adjust the shoes because they're too hot?

A: I don't know. I will tell them to put some air-conditioning in there (laughter follows). Especially with the technology growing and getting better, I believe in the future we will have these kinds of things, too.

As well,the former Wimbledon doubles champ can be quite the flirt. Check out these interviews with winning partner Jamie Murray.

Success: She has a major doubles title, but Jankovic is still searching for her first major in singles play. Could this be the year?

Aussie Open hotties: Jelena Dokic

The last time Jelena Dokic advanced to the second round at the Australian Open, it was 1999. Since then the No. 4 ranked woman in the world has represented Serbia (the country of her heritage) and now represents Australia (the country where she grew up), she also is estranged from her family, battled depression and debated giving up the game altogether. For more on her story, read here.

A first round win over Tamira Paszek was a victory in many ways for Dokic. It is also a win for those who appreciate Dokic's game and beauty. As Chickipedia.com states, she has many fine assets.

Also advancing were Ana Ivanovic and fellow Serbian sensation Jelena Jankovic, Dinara Safina, Vera Zvonareva, Sania Mirza, and Nadia Petrova, among others.
