Let John Mayer Serenade You With His Live Acoustic Cover of Beyonce’s ‘XO’
John Mayer popping up from Australia to remind you that he still rules the world. I honestly think I could listen to him play anything on an acoustic guitar, and it doesnt even have to be music. If he came to my house one day and told me my dog got hit by a car while playing the guitar I think I’d be alright. Obviously I’d still be devastated and it’s probably a horrible example but that’s the power of John Mayer. Just making people forget about their handicapped dogs.

Coincidence That Nina Adgal Gets the SI Swimsuit Cover Two Weeks After She’s Spotted with Leo? I Think Not
They are both in relationships, so Leonardo DiCaprio and Nina Agdal raised a few eyebrows when they apparently left a club together at 5am.
The pair were partying at Club Avenue in New York until the early hours of Monday morning after the Super Bowl on Sunday.
The Wolf Of Wall Street star and Sports Illustrated model were spotted walking from the venue one after the other before piling into the same car and speeding off together.
– Daily mail, February 4th
Nina Adgal better give Leo some extra special loving tonight. One week she’s leaving a club with him, the next she’s chosen for the cover of the SI swimsuit issue. Once again proving my theory that everything Leo touches turns to gold, and that the only thing that surpasses his taste in movie roles is his taste in woman. Go on with ya bad self.

And Here’s the Cover Sports Illustrated DIDN’T Choose
No offense to Chrissy Teigen, Nina Adgal and Lily Aldridge, but this blows their cover away. Also I’m going to start a petition that every day that ends in Y becomes Kate Upton Day at Average Nobodies. Between her bouncing around in zero gravity and this picture, there’s a solid chance I spend the next 300 hours watching Kate Upton videos. Sweet baby Jesus on the cross.

I Wanna Be Best Friends with Chrissy Teigen
And by best friends I mean passionate lovers. She’s a swimsuit model, she’s one of the funniest people on Twitter and she’s a swimsuit model. That’s why we in the business call a triple threat. Plus she’s married to John Legend and best friends with Erin Andrews and Brooklyn Decker. Imagine those sexy parties? That’s something I need to be apart of. With my ability to consume alcohol and rapist wit, I’d fit in in no time. Hey Chrissy, if you’re out there, let Uncle Ryan into your inner circle. It’ll be the worst decision of your life.

The SI Swimsuit Cover Never, Ever, Disappoints.
Sunrise, sunset. Tide in, tide out. What goes up, must come down, and so on and so forth. What I’m trying to get at is when it comes to finding hot girls to dance around half naked on the beach, Sports Illustrated had cornered the market. This years cover stars: Nina Agdal, Lily Aldridge, and Chrissy Teigen.
Am I upset Kate Upton didn’t get the triple crown? A little, but even the queen needs some time off.

Boyce Avenue Has a Cover of ‘Story of my Life’ and I’ll Probably Never Listen to Another Song Again
I’m a big fan of Boyce Avenue (even though they ignored the 1000 or so requests Matt and I made for them to cover ‘Country Roads’). There’s something about the simplicity of their songs that makes them that much better than any other cover artists. Their cover of ‘Story of my Life’ is no different. A piano, guitar, tambourine and two sweet, angelic voices. Gets me every time.

Alan Silvestri’s Acoustic Version of the Back to the Future Theme Song is Awesome
This is what I call maximizing your talent. If you have the ability to play the acoustic guitar like Alan and you’re not playing covers of classic movie theme songs then you’re wasting your time. Back to the Future is the best trilogy of all time and it’s not even a debate.

Best Sports Illustrated Cover of All Time?
Big Papi with the Boston bombings first responders? You’re damn right it is. Sorry Kate, this even beats out your swimsuit covers.
