Thank to the super awesome features of Google's Blogger application, it is incredibly easy to see which pictures you wolves out there like the most. Through July, 2012, here are the top 10 chick pics of the year.
#10 University of Kentucky Cheerleaders
On their way to winning the NCAA Men's Basketball championship this past April, the Hat Trick posted a photo of four members of their cheerleading squad hanging out and having a good time. Clearly, you guys had a good time watching them have a good time. I think they had a better time in New Orelans just days after this was posted.

#9 Danica Patrick - May 7, 2012
Danica Patrick is a bad ass. I love it! The good ol' boys of NASCAR, apparently, didn't know what was coming when Patrick left Indy Car to devote her full-time energy to stock car racing. Perhaps Sam Hornish, Jr. thought he could pick on and intimidate pretty little girls in a man's game. He was wrong!
This picture was a tribute to Mrs. Patrick, literally, sticking it to the man, specifically Hornish.

| Too bad she can't compete in this gear. I'd never miss a race on television! |
#8 Marlins Mermaids
Miami is a different kind of place. There are 30 MLB teams, so the Marlins may not be alone, but I am unaware of any of Major League Baseball team with a cheerleading squad. Since moving to the new Marlins Park, the team has been renamed the Miami Marlins Energy Team. I have got to catch a series if I am ever in South Beach during the summer!

| This is a team from a past season, but you get the idea. |
#7 Shonna, (Oklahoma City) Thunder Girl
Late in the 2012 NBA regular season, Metta World Peace of the Los Angeles Lakers delivered a vicious blow to the head of Oklahoma City Thunder sixth man James Harden. It was the talk of the sports airwaves for several days. I suggested that a visit from this lovely Thunder Girl (dance team) member, Shonna, could raise Harden's spirits.

| Seeing her could probably raise more than Harden's "spirits", but this is a family show! |
#6 Danica Patrick - July 12, 2012
I don't need my arm twisted to post pictures of NASCAR driver Danica Patrick to the Hat Trick. She is far and away my personal #1 hottest female athlete. The excuse I used, which you readers appeared to approve of, was her appearance at the 2012 ESPY awards, by ESPN. I could talk about how Mrs. Patrick is every man's perfect combination of beauty, personality, and bad ass-ness. But why tell you when I can show you?

| ♫ "Beautifu-ul! I just waant you to kno-ow...you're my fav-vorite gu-uhrl! (Oh! Uh oh ohh! Yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah!)" ♪ |
#5 Adrienne Williams Bosh
Chris Bosh of the Miami Heat and his wife, Adrienne, had their first child together during the past season. While I don't understand the mechanics yet (Bosh is 6'10" and his wife is barely five feet tall), I understand why Bosh will either be having more children or practicing the act of making them in the near future.
 |
| See, I don't think (the almost seven foot tall) Bosh could join her in the tub unless their tub is more of a miniature swimming pool. |
#4 Keri Hilson
For a short time, there were rumors circulating about NBA star Kevin Durant dating singer Keri Hilson. Those rumors proved to be false; Ms. Hilson has been engaged for quite some time, not to Durant. Still, the curiosity of the readers made the pictures posted of Ms. Hilson #4 among the chick pics.
 |
| I wouldn't blame The Durantula for trying! |
#3 Chelsea Cain
Your searches to get a look at San Francisco Giants pitcher Matt Cain kissing his wife, Chelsea, after pitching a perfect game restored some of my faith that guys, as a whole, aren't a bunch of skin seeking wolves who only want to look at a woman in a bikini or a provocative pose. Then again, I have no idea what you guys expected to see before opening the link.
| Most of our chick pics aren't so wholesome. This one could not be anything but. |
#2 Nikki Sapp on June 13, 2012
You people just kept coming back for more! So much that I mistakenly thought you guys wanted to read my analysis of the NBA playoffs or some profound sports social commentary I made. WRONG!
In the words of the late Tupac Shakur, I ain't mad at cha! And I don't blame ya, either! So I figured you all would want an encore to the Nikki Sapp pictures from the prior week. I was right.
 |
| I would say you guys broke my heart if I weren't as guilty of take a peek for the second time...or the third...or fourth! |
#1 Nikki Sapp on June 8, 2012
First and foremost, let me say that this is a little misleading. While the Hat Trick did not start the Chick Pic section as a regular entry until this past March, we have posted pictures of beautiful women. The number of times you, the readers, have reached the Hat Trick looking for pictures of Tigers Woods' ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, and Lucy Pinder & Erin Drewes (rumored to have been dating Tim Tebow) dwarfs every last one of the chick pics referenced in this posting. However, those pictures were posted prior to the Chick Pic becoming a regular piece here.
Second, Miami Heat Head Coach Erik Spoelstra may be the most criticized championship winning coach of this decade. However, you guys admire something about him, his lady! I can't say I blame you. She...is...FINE! Still, Nikki Sapp made both #1 and #2. So just remember that while you may have a problem with how Spoelstra manages his bench, none of you would complain if you woke up one day with his situation in the bed!
