Maxim May Want To Tweak Its BCS Formula

From the deranged world of edgy men’s publications comes a strange and confusing tale of grave injustice:

Lindsay Lohan has emerged as the hottest woman on the list of the 100 hottest women released by Maxim magazine. Not surprisingly Britney Spears and Paris Hilton are not featured on this elite list.

Lohan was on the 4th spot in 2005 and jumped to the 3rd position in 2006. This year she beat “Desperate Housewives” actress Eva Longoria for the top honor. The former was placed ninth this year after topping the charts for the previous two years.

In short, we are flabbergasted by this announcement. Dumbfounded, even. Hotter than Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, and Eva Longoria? Umm… WHAT?!? Haven’t we already established Lohan as a runaway truck careening out of control? Who the hell was in charge of this operation, Skip Bayless?

Maxim’s editor-in-chief Jimmy Jellinik said Lohan’s popularity was unparalleled. “There is no other star in the world that causes more of a stir in the public eye than Lindsay. Her every move is watched and reported on,” he said in a statement.

True… usually because she’s setting her career ablaze. Please, Jimmy, don’t try to explain the logic behind this. You’re not helping.

Though we suspect Lohan may have slipped them a mickey on decision day, we can’t help but question the integrity of the Maxim panelists, who just might be more corrupt than the Bush Administration and that crooked French ice skating judge, combined!

Dear God, what a travesty.
