There's only one October. But there are two twins.

It’s a good time to be a beer maker in Milwaukee.

What other city in American can clinch a playoff spot for the first time since 1982 with Dale Sveum (who?) as an interim head coach?

Sure, its location in the frozen midwest tundra typically scares off most of our nation’s finest blondes and broads.

Amazing what October baseball can bring to a city.

Meet the Brewers twins. Names? Not really that important. Your vote? Yeah, that’s important.

Would you beat?

Maybe, Yes, No, Maybe, No, Maybe, 12 Deep, No, Yes

Email: Not that anything successful has come out of the Chicago State athletics department, but maybe the Volleyball team has potential? Would You Beat?

——

We’ve actually got a close call here. Unlike previous editions of Would You Beat — where borderline super models easily get five stars — the Chicago State Cougars volleyball team brings up a great debate.

Your rating?

The pride of Fresno State

Arizona’s got those cute softball players, Cal’s got that smoke show pole vaulter, and now, Fresno State (who?) has soccer’s golden girl?

Bulldog Nation, please welcome the new face of your university: Molly Nizzoli.

She’s just a quiet 17-year-old freshman looking to make a big impact. Aren’t we all?

“If I could change one thing about myself it would be to be less shy when first talking to someone,” Nizzoli said.

Her 18th birthday is Monday, so we’re keeping the five-star ratings and Would You Beat status off for a reason.

Today’s story also says that Fresno ‘Fasho State (who?) was her first choice (why?).

Oh hello there.

Move over, Jenn Sterger, you’re not the only football babe in the Sunshine state.

Meet the Gator Girl Heidi, who debuted this photo album in August.

It’s only a matter of time before ESPN snatches a ten-second clip of Heidi going bazonkers in the stands, followed by the obligatory “oh, wow, thousands of students just submitted an application to UF” commentary.

Put Sterger, Tebow’s girlfriend and now Heidi in a three-way round robin wrestling tournament, and you’ve got the pride of Florida.

Got a Tim Tebowner yet? If so, we ask, with the presumption that you’ve got a pulse, would you beat?

Andy Roddick is a lucky, lucky dude.

Not only is he one of the greatest tennis players in the whole freaking world, but his finacee is pretty smoking. Yeah, being a Sports Illustrated model will do that to you.

Hope Solo, name of a sexy woman, not a gourmet restaurant

People say to be careful of people with two first names, such as Michael Scott or Andruw Jones. But what about those people with names that are composed by Verb + Noun?

Certainly, USA soccer goalie Hope Solo fits into that genre. But also certain, she fits into our Would You Beat series of women in sports.

The 27-year-old Solo — coincidentally the brand name of the world’s best red cups — stirred the airwaves in 2007 when publically bashing her coach for benching her a la high school parents on anonomous town message boards.

So with the excess attitude and feistiness, would you still beat?
