Use your own judgment as far as NSFW.

Good God, did Andy Roddick outpunt his coverage?

Wow.
 
Dr Z should have never done that column with Decker. I think that is what caused his health problems.

Oh! Oh!

May I be the one to write Sports Illustrated the indignant letter, this year?
 
Bleh. Seems like it's the same models every year. Hot chick in a bikini. Rinse, repeat. Don't need to thumb through this issue to see that. Only thing of interest: the handful of actual female athletes they include. Or the WAGs. And that's a stretch. Still not worth whatever it costs.

I'm not a good judge, but I've got to figure Roddick would be considered a pretty good catch himself.

Exactly. Terrible use of that phrase.

Body paint again? Wow, how original.

I get it and throw it in a drawer my desk with issues from the last 25 years. Huggy Jr. might appreciate it one day. Or he might write a letter to SI about it, who knows.

She's definitely hot. Very hot.

20+ years ago, those Kathy Ireland, Stephanie Seymour, Elle MacPherson (sp?) issues were like gold. Granted, I'm not 16 anymore, but I doubt teenagers today are 1/1,000,000 as excited about picking this up in their mailboxes as we were as kids.

Most can just pull out their iPhones and find something better in a matter of seconds.

Considering what it costs to put out a swimsuit issue, I'm surprised it still exists.
 
Decker now holds the lead in the Roddick household for SI covers

For the record, she's got nothin' on Elle McPherson

She looks kinda like her, though.

Best Swimsuit Issue memory.

Wow, it must be 31 years ago now, jeez, I got my issue and brought it onto the team bus as we left for a wrestling match (rough, I was a 98lb sophomore). As I walk on our coach, Mr. Charlie Jones (wannabe Marine), grabs it out of my hand and says "whatcha got there?" I go back to my seat and get it back 30 mins. later. The rest of the year I was "Mr. Swimsuit."
 
Nothing these days can replicate getting Cheryl Tiegs on the cover in fishnet in the 70's.

Wasn't a cover. Wasn't even a full-page photo inside.
 
My favorite cover will always be the Sylvander twins (Yvonne and Yvette) in the rainbow suits.
