Adam: Last Sunday my girlfriend was watching E!'s Stranded With A Star. At first, I thought it was a rather stupid concept, but I decided to give it a shot anyway. 10 minutes later I was hooked. That's when I decided to call upon some of FOXSports.com's Blog Community's finest to be panelists and help me bring Stranded With A Star: Sports Edition to the Internet. Like the show, both my panelists and I will vote and select a star from each match-up.
Here's the concept: You are stranded on an island and can only pick one star from each match-up to be stranded with. If the match-up is your same sex, step into the shoes of the opposite sex as well while making your decision. This star could serve as a friend or a lover or a partner or even as an enemy... the proverbial ball is truly in your court.
The List
1. Hottest Female Athlete: Indy Driver Danica Patrick or Softball Superstar Jennie Finch?
Adam: Patrick... I'm a brunette man. Besides, I also have a feeling that Danica will be much more useful on the island. Plus, after seeing that Gatorade commercial, I've decided that Jennie's head is just too damn big.
Norcalfella: Finch... Danica would spend all her time trying to make a car, which isn't all that important on a one-square-mile island. No thanks; I'll dial 867-5309 on my Survivor Shane imaginary BlackBerry. Imagine Finch hurling coconuts at wild animals. Perfect hunter.
Ty: Finch.... Nothing wards off potentially dangerous monkeys, alligators, and other critters like a 100 mph coconut to the head.
Our Pick: Blondes have more fun... Jennie Finch 3-2

2. Golden Boy Showdown: 3-Time Champ Tom Brady or Heisman Winner Matt Leinart?
Adam: Leinart... Simply because even Paris is less annoying than those five hogs that are always attached to Brady's hip. Plus, we could try to sell his Heisman Trophy to some pirates for a lift.
Belle: Brady... Oh God, I have to choose? Since I'm still bitter about Matt's latest "romp," I'll take Brady over Leinart simply because Brady has taste and dates real models versus wannabes and reality stars like Paris Hilton and Kristin Cavalleri.
Bluto: Leinart... As a Buffalo guy, I would prefer to be tied down and forced to watch Tara Reid in Urban Legend 1,000 consecutive times than to be on the same island with Tom Brady. I pick Matt and hope he hooks me up with Paris' sister Nicky whenever we get back.
Our Pick: Trojan Man... Matt Leinart 3-2

3. Sexiest Tennis Sister: Short and stacked Serena or vertically-blessed Venus Williams?
Adam: Venus... She seems more ladylike and, unlike Serena, she probably couldn't kick my ass.
Belle: Neither... ugh... neither... can we say "Amazon?" Both are too intense for my taste. Having physically bumped into one in NYC, let's just say, "I was scared!"
Norcalfella: Serena... Has to be Serena, another man on the island would be helpful around camp.
Our Pick: Two sisters for the price of one... Tie 2-2-0

4. The "Air" Apparent: Kobe "Mamba" Bryant or LeBron "King" James or Dwyane "Flash" Wade?
Adam: Kobe... Anyone who can score 81 points in today's NBA would find a way to get us off that rock. Hopefully, there wouldn't be a trial when we returned.
Belle: Wade... Wow... I used to think I knew the answer to this, but after watching the Heat play in the Playoffs, Wade's stock is rising. If I went off something purely superficial, say, looks-there is something damn sexy about Wade that reminds me of Jordan.
Bluto: LeBron... Can we include Shawn Kemp in this group? If one chick happens to find her away around he can populate the entire island. If not I'll go with LeBron. He carried the entire Cavs on his back. Surely he can carry me around if I grow weary.
Ty: None of the above... Dwight Howard. Metal from his orthodontic retainer could be melted and molded into a trap for catching small game and large fish.
Our Pick: Flash to the rescue... Dwyane Wade 2-1-1-0

5. Hottest Ex-Sports Wife: Ex-Mrs. Justice Halle Berry or Ex-Mrs. Fox Vanessa Williams?
Bluto: Vanessa... I'm an old school cat. Back in 1984 when I was in seventh grade, Penthouse became my first nudy magazine purchase (Well sorta, someone bought it for me). Not coincidentally, Vanessa was on the cover. I've been obsessed ever since.
Norcalfella: Vanessa.... Watching Halle get nasty with Billy Bob destroyed the fantasy. Vanessa moving from Laker player to Laker fan might be a massive downgrade, but after months of being stranded I think I could woo her into some island love.
Ty: Halle... Could potentially do that crazy telekinetic trick from X-Men and turn a scary experience into a nice little Saturday.
Our Pick: Eraser Girl upsetting Catwoman... Vanessa Williams 3-2

6. Best Friends: Likely Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki or Back-to-Back MVP Steve Nash?
Adam: Dirk... I'm German, he's German. If we found any beer (preferably Beck's or Warsteiner) we'd be set. Besides, Nash's nasty finger licking habit would get old. I'd want to slap the dude.
Belle: Dirk... Because Germany is an awesome place to party and I can just imagine hitting up 'Tanz-Palast' in D
