Hard as we might wish, Brooklyn Decker's carefully positioned arm will never shift to reveal what lies beneath. But at least it's guiding us towards the motherlode of bikini babe goodness.

Yes, it's time once again for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, which this year brings us page after page of bikini wearing models, WAGs, Olympic stars, and, ahem, "Dancing with the Stars." Well, most of them are wearing bikinis—the WAGs actually have simulacra of bikinis painted on to their skin.

Quite a few familiar faces line the pages (hello, Abbey Clancy!)—and, in at least one case, familiar photos, too. Ashley Greene's photo spread is, in fact, her recent shoot for Sobe—a fact that's helpfully hammered home by the Sobe logo watermarked in the lower left corner (as well as the word "advertisement" that appears in the upper right).

But hey, enough quibbling about details here. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue is a time-honored tradition...one we intend to celebrate with just the right amount of stickiness.
