March is over, and that means we're almost done with the biggest, most exciting tournament of the year, a national spectacle that pits 64 hungry competitors against each other with everything on the line. And when I say the competitors are hungry, I mean they've literally been starving themselves for most of their adult lives. Welcome to the Final Four of The Financial Times' Sexiest Woman Alive tourna- ahem, sorry, Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive Madness tournament. More»

As you already know, Esquire magazine is not secretly gay. Not gay at all. And because there's nothing more secure than loudly declaring your sexuality to everyone, they've decided to hold a little tournament in honor of March Madness, since everyone knows that sports are only for straight people. So now we find ourselves in the middle of the Sexiest Woman Alive Tournament, a bro-tastic competition sure to steal precious hours from studying for Intro To Econ classes on campuses nationwide. More importantly, it will answer for me what has become a central question: can I completely scorn this in concept and still get unduly upset about who wins? Let's find out! More»

Ladies and gentlemen, put all your experience in superficial judgment to good use. The editorial wizards at Esquire came up with an ingenious union of two of the Fratty Bro specimen's favorite pastimes, March Madness and drooling over hot chicks they'll never have a chance with, and set up a complex tourney-style bracket system for the women whom they've seeded in four different categories and paired against each other. Now they need you to weigh in on who the sexiest woman on the planet is in their Sexiest Woman Alive Madness 2011. My fellow females who know nothing about sports, this is perfect for us since all you have to do is assess the ladies based on who's hotter which we do on our own anyway, except now our vote counts.
