So, yesterday we featured a Victoria's Secret model at the top of the Clicks and asked you to help us ID her. The e-mails came pouring in. Four of you said it was Doutzen Kroes and three of you said it was Karolina Kurkova. Other names sent to us were Adriana Karembeu, Alessandra Ambrosio, Lindsay Ellingson and Natalia Polevshchikova. All of those folks were wrong. As several of you correctly noted, the model was Candice Swanepoel. And right on cue, CoEd Magazine has put together a Candice Swawnepoel photo gallery.

Oden's Coming On
There is no player in the NBA we're rooting harder for than Greg Oden. We want to see him do well for three reasons: 1) He seems like a good guy; 2) He's provided great entertainment for Hot Clicks and the blogosphere; 3) We drafted him in our fantasy league. Well, after suffering another setback to start the season, he's slowly picking up the pace, and as Bust a Bucket tells us, the bandwagon is about to get crowded.

We enjoy a good random observation, so we want to give credit to Ron Vener, of Marblehead, Mass., who e-mailed to say "The cover of the "Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!" record album looks strikingly like Tom Brady and his GQ cover." Yes, it does.
