Congratulations to Charlotte NC Model Brooklyn Decker

I wasn't surprised at all to hear that Brooklyn Decker was named as the covergirl for the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue this year and you shouldn't be surprised that I chose to post a huge picture of it here on YJKOBT.

I have to celebrate this because not only is she very attractive and married to tennis star Andy Roddick but we share something in common. A special bond you might say. We both call Charlotte NC our hometown... and yes that is good enough for me!

Funny thing I found out by reading this article is that she wasn't named after the borough in New York (where she now lived BTW) but she was actually named after a horse named Brook. Seriously folks you named your daughter after the horse? Well I guess it could be worse you could be like my sister and be named after a Playboy centerfold.

I don't even know who this gal is, but it's QUITE the photo I'd say. And hey, Brooklyn is a great name--AND a really great borough of NYC. :-) I'm biased though!

I love that your sister is named after a Playboy model. I am not sure that I am named after anyone, but I was supposed to be Ruby. Thank God that didn't work out.

I was named after my two grandmothers. It was this name or Carmen Louise. I definitely drew the long straw on that one!

Jay said...

She's okay. Kind of your standard issue tall, thin fake blond with long legs kind of chick. If you're into that kid of girl. ;-)

I was going to be Shawn if I were a boy....I do like the name Brookelyn...my youngest was almost named that.

I need to change my jeans....oops

I used to have the biggest crush on Andy Roddick until he married "Brooklyn"...why do they all fall for the gorgeous blonde? LOL! AND...being a tennis fan I would like to say that I think Andy's game has gone down hill since he got married(well maybe even before that)..if he would concentrate half on his tennis game as he did in pursuing her maybe his tennis career wouldn't be in the crapper!(No..I'm not jealous or anything.) :)

I was named after a very fat, but very, very nice woman that my dad worked with. When he told me this, the point was that she was a very nice woman. I found it hilarious that he needed to share the part about her being fat.

Just heard Beyonce's dad's girlfriend gave birth to a baby boy. His name is... Nixon.
