February 11, 200916 yr This article was written by Andy Gray, from Fan Nation (today's column FOR THE RECORD) " If you're a guy who appreciates half-naked girls in bikinis, today is your Super Bowl. That's right; it's the release of Sports Illustrated's 2009 Swimsuit Issue. Sure, the internet has become a bastion of attractive women in next-to-no clothing, but the Swimsuit issue isn't just your run of the mill hot chicks. It's the cream of the crop. The Rolls Royce of ridiculously good-looking chicks that no normal person such as you or I could ever hope to talk to, much less date. And that leaves only one thing -- to rank them. So here are my top five all-time favorite SI Swimsuit models. 1. Christie Brinkley: Maybe it's because I love blondes. Or maybe it's that cheesy video for Uptown Girl. Either way, Brinkley is is at the top of my SI swimsuit mountain. 2. Kathy Ireland: If you're like me, you spent way too much of your childhood staring at this cover. Frankly, I was close to giving her the top spot, but we went with Brinkley since Vacation is a much better movie than Necessary Roughness. 3. Elle MacPhereson: The Bod. Enough said. 4. Tori Praver: The swimsuit has been a tradition at SI since 1964, and in that time, hundreds of models and thousands of pics have been unleashed on the world, but this picture remains my all-time favorite. 5. Irina Shayk: Much like Dustin Pedroia, Shayk burst onto the scene in 2007 and has been producing solidly ever since. Never heard of her? Look at this picture or this one or this one and you'll see my point. Those are my five favorites. Who is on your list?" That's pretty good company to keep, I'd say. The picture he was referring to of Tori's is this one:

February 12, 200916 yr Has any capped the SI video(s) w/ Tori yet??? If not, would anyone like me to??? I might be able to make some from the videos online, but I don't have a way to make them from the TV show (they're doing one this year aren't they?). It'll likely be tomorrow before I could do the online ones, so if you'd like to post some Pinky, that'd be great! And thank you for offering!

February 12, 200916 yr Swimsuit model Tori Praver attends the launch of Sports Illustrated's 2009 Swimsuit Issue at Prana on February 11, 2009 in New York City. I love seeing her in white. She is normally in black and she looks so dang good!
February 12, 200916 yr Here's some screens from the SI video. Apologies, in advance, to Tori for inclusion of the second shot.
February 12, 200916 yr WOW thanks she is so beautiful! my fav SI shot of her was the one on page 124! she definitely captured the shot! and her facial beauty and those eyes are out of this world! also on page 129, she has such a great butt and some nice legs which most guys I know prefer over big boobies
February 12, 200916 yr Here's some screens from the SI video. Apologies, in advance, to Tori for inclusion of the second shot. What a great job, dt! Thanx so much! There is not a single bad shot there and I honestly think I am being unbiased. I thought about it and I'm sure I am

I absolutely agree with everything you say. She's different from lots of girls in those ways you mentioned. If you compare the SI shots with the ones I posted above at the party, see how versatile her look is? She's a flat out cutie pie! And, don't her eyes just pop out at you and draw you right in??
