Issue arrived in excellent shape and it was what I ordered. What more can I say? Women in bathing suits and less.... :)

This issue of Sports Illustrated, Swimsuit 2009, was not as good as previous ones. I love Bar Refaeli. She is my new favorite Super Model. I have her on my cell phone, but not on speed dial, if you know what I mean. There are more foreign models than ever before. I would rather see more American Women on foreign beaches. Some of them I would not consider a perfect 10, which should be a requirement for this issue of this magazine. More Americans, More Tens!!!

I waited a 35 days and still never recieved this item. Of course I was very disappointed BUT after contacting the vendor and explained how I never recieved the item, he gave me a full refund asap. No item but excellent customer service!

I received this in the mail yesterday, and one thing stuck out to me, it is better than the last few. I was tired of all the body paint and such, so I was glad to see that occupied only a small portion of this issue. The models look great, of course, and I think my favorite part was the tennis pros that modeled. They looked great, and it was interesting to see them in a different light. Overall, a good issue, and as I said, much better than the last few issues.

This is the first time I have bought the SISS in over 10 years. The last time I purchased it Rebecca Romijn was on the cover. I don't know what made me pick up this issue but I am glad that I did.

I have commented on the SI issues or portfolios of shots done in the mid 90's under the editor ship of Jules Campbell. I had always liked the photography contained therein because I like the dignity and the regality that the models gave off. The 2009 is a throw back to that period.

The pictures are lovely and tasteful. They are enough to make a young man's heart beat with excitement, but yet still nice enough that they would make a mother proud to call any of these ladies their daughters.

The models look both sexy, yet tasteful. Athletic yet very feminine. Alluring yet very powerful. Even though these young ladies are posing in their bathing suits, there's this still powerful aura around them, that screams I am to be respected!

There have been many swim suit issues out. Most of them which I would not touch with a ten foot pole since they all have a taint of sleaze around them. The SI Swim Suit Issue is the only swim suit issue that truly displays women in their true glory and manages to bring out their spirit. It is no wonder that a third of the people who purchase the magazine are themselves women!

As a perennial fan of the SI Swimsuit issue I am sorry to report this issue is not worth the $7 I paid for it! The cover shot is good but it is the best photo in the entire magazine. What is going on at SI? Are you you going through a budget crunch and not getting the top talent any more? There is no sizzle here! There is no adventure here!

If you want a good bikini mag, get a Maxim.

This is the best swimsuit issue that sports illustrated came out with. The models are sexy and hotter than ever. It is almost like looking at a "Playboy Wet and Wild issue". I really enjoyed the magazine!
