We Are Hot Chicks Wednesday: World Series Recipe

Surprised? You bet your sweet ass you are. These here are good durn times, boy. It's late October. It's raining in New York. Yankees fans can chug pureed sewage topped with rotten eggs, and the House of Georges says, "Let's talk World Series!"

Things we know: Joe Buck is unbearable. Pedro Martinez will pitch well in game two. Alex Rodriguez likes the prison showers, and Joe Posnanski Tweets way too freaking much during playoff baseball games. Sweet Christ.

But it's all good. It's October! Let's hop past the leap and see what a championship club needs in order to bring home the jewelry. Go Phillies!

Let's face it:



You gotta be in shape to compete in any professional sports post-season.

Adriana Kriplewska



Class? Well, that helps, too, but...

Danielle Moinet



...that comes in many forms.



You can classily deliver the same game face in different environments.



But you gotta have fire,



poise,



composure,



and a serious knack



for some hard-core



ass kicking.



I mean, you gotta know when to put your own ass on the line,



when it's time to put your ass in the face of your competitors,



and when it's time to just plain turn your ass out of the way.



Havin' some tough ass in your corner always helps, too,



especially if you're delivering straight from the chest.



Knowing that you're surrounded by other ass...ets,



helps tremendously when you need someone else on your club to shoulder the load.



In fact, a whole team load of tough asses



can land you in the winnner's circle more often than not.

Jessi Jade Mrochko



Whether it's baseball or not, you wanna have your Heisman pose ready at all times.

Joanna Krupa



You can't take the seriousness of a championship contest sittin' down.



You've gotta stand up and be ready to stomach whatever comes your way.



A champion has to be poised on his her toes,



and ready to shock the competition,



force them into submission.



If you're not ready to bare it all, why even show.

Joselyn



Every once in a while, a team will have a star that goes by one name. You know: Ichiro, Yao, Joselyn, they're all big-time players.

Maria Ozawa



Equally important is the roster member that's a one-time smash.

Maria Venus



On occasion, a club'll have two of those on board.

Marketa Belonoha



They pale in comparison, however, to the smokin' hot star that'll get the other club off their game each and every night.



You never know where they're comin' from,



but you know they're gonna getcha'.

Paxton Lane



A good surprise factor's always nice, too, when it's tucked away in the arsenal.

Shay Laren



A journeyed veteran that can look in the mirror with confidence? Huge.

Taylor Vixen



It's nice to have youth,

Tommie Jo



and it's nice to have culture,



but above all, you gotta have the veterans.



Line 'em up,



sign 'em up.



They're gonna deliver,



produce,



teach your youth,



show their flair,



strut their stuff,



and leave the other guys wondering what hit 'em.



Veteran contributions are immeasurable,



impeccable,



frequently astonishing,



and always impressive.



You should never let one mediocre apple spoil your veteran sauce, either,



because there's always another spicy vat o' cider right comin' up the pipes.



Grab it when you see it.



You won't be disappointed,



you won't be left behind,



and in the end, you'll be all smiles.

Nadia Moore



No championship squad is complete, however, without an ace.



Whether you're talking Twin Towers,



a grizzled hip-checker,



or a key performance on the mound, your ace is your casino chip. Cash it in.

That's it for this week quarter. Check back in again sometime. We'll have refreshments, courtesy of our sponsors.
