^ Is there supposed to be a pic there, Julia?

This is not the who's-in-Joe's-signature thread! :persuazn:

As long as it's not Matt Ryan. But seriously, the 2008 season is like the year of the rookie/backup QBs. There must be nine or ten teams already using rookies or backups. :shock:

Calling someone "Tiger" makes me think of Spiderman. And Spiderman makes me think of Mary-Jane Watson. But Mary-Jane Watson now makes me think of Kirsten Dunst. :x You should get a sig of Matt Cassel.

^ Yup! The Ravens shattered all the '85 Bears' defensive records from what I've heard. The 2000 Ravens defense: best in NFL history. But what's great about the championship year is that in those games, sometimes the cameramen would cut to the sideline and there Johnny Unitas would be, cheering the team on. "Get well soon, Tiger"? I disabled sigs/avatars because I switched to a Mac and BZ on a Mac is hell on earth, so I thought disabling them might help, and it did, to a degree.

Oh damn, who is your sig of, Joe? I disabled sigs and avatars and I'm too lazy to turn them back on.

^ There's no need to wait for me. Anywho... I like SI's choices for the most part (that 2004 shot of Marisa in the hay will always be my favorite SI pic), although I would replace the pics for the index, February, and August. 2003, 2004, and 2005 were her best shoots for them, IMO, and those years got kind of snubbed.

VS pics with her moles not photoshopped out?

EDIT: MattLoveModels beat me to it! Yeah, I don't think anyone would argue that the NFC East is the best in the NFL right now. It seems almost unfair for those teams to share a division!

^ Pshhh! This downturn in the AFC is just a fluke. Not to mention, I could never see the NFC as superior when it's really just one division with the talent (minus the Packers)! But I do thank the Eagles for handing it to Roethlisberger because it made the Steelers look much easier to beat next week for the Ravens and their #1 defense.

OMG, this season is making me think I'm in the Twilight Zone! The AFC division leaders are currently the Bills, Ravens, Titans, and Broncos. :shock:

^ Sure.

^ Thanks, VH! I've never seen that one before.

Marisa looks great in these pre-VSFS pics, but tagging them is totally uncalled for.

^ Great pic!

I went citation diving the other day for Wikipedia and came across this May 2000 article, which means it's pre-VS, pre-SI, and even pre-Testino! Not only is it the only article I've ever read that confirms her marriage to Jim Miller, but it also says she modeled for Guess?, Frederick's of Hollywood, Pepsi, Panasonic, and Sun Microsystems! Link

Well, I bashed Gisele once, but that was only because an really obnoxious Gisele-fan was badgering people in the Babe Polls about Alessandra being cross-eyed. And thanks again for the pics!

Thanks for the pics, Pink & Julia! It's good to see so many new VS pics (finally). Forget just this year! She's SI's most popular model of the decade -- what other model has gotten her own "Best of" calendar? -- and always has been VS's second most popular model, as I showed in that Google Trends thread. Yeah, I originally said in my last post that it was no surprise the tFS member doing the bashing was a Lima fan, but I edited it, thinking Pinkie would delete the post. And don't bother with people dismissing Marisa as "commercial." That's just what high fashion fans do to feel better about no one caring about their fugly no-name favorites who'll be forgotten in a season or two.

OMG, I just read this rant of pure stupidity on tFS about (among many things) how Marisa's recent success is all just her 15 minutes of fame, that she can't get press without it being bought, that she's a fake Angel, and that she has a lisp. :rofl:

I'd like to buy it off Amazon, but it might be sold out, since it's no longer on pre-order yet there's no option to buy the calendar. How many launches has VS had his year? 7 or 8? And out of 9 Angels, Marisa has had three of them.
