Troy, of Gardner, Kan., took issue with yesterday's A.M. Hot Clicks, which revealed the top 10 Hot Clicks of 2009 based on page views. Troy wondered how Florida International University cheerleader, Vanessa Marrero, didn't make the cut. Vanessa was featured as SI.com's Cheerleader of the Week in mid-October, and I can assure you that her photo gallery did huge traffic.
Speaking of Vanessa, CoEdMagazine.com has put together a post featuring 66 women who wowed us in 2009. They asked several bloggers, including myself, to submit five suggestions. I gave them Vanessa, Blake Lively, Candice Swanepoel, Laura Leigh and Abigail Klein.
