Poll: Which Laker Girl would you like to find under the tree?

Whether the Lakers are winning or losing, there's always something exciting to watch.

There's nothing like Christmas morning. You wake up, trying to play it cool as you walk toward the tree, all the while hoping to find everything your little heart desires.

If you've ever been to a Laker game (or have access to Google Images), you probably wouldn't mind seeing one of the 22 Laker Girls under the tree, waiting calmly for you to unwrap her.

Now I know each person has his or her own preference, but I've decided to put forth some of the strongest candidates, with a little personal info about each.

Annika - a UCLA grad, so probably not the choice for you Trojans out there. She's a crossword fan and loves to cook, making those Sunday mornings all the more enjoyable. Her only knock is a minor in German, not exactly the sexiest language out there.

Sarah - a music buff, she loves Elvis and Guitar Hero. Think of the late nights listening to the King and trying to score...in the video game...of course...

Tara - an animal lover, she volunteers at a variety of local Animal Shelters. She's also a criminal justice student at Cal State Long Beach, so if some scumbag steals your car stereo, she'll track him down.

Bria - a double major in dance and pre-med at UCI, she's ready to operate on you and look good doing it. She's also a tap dancer, so make sure you get a first floor apartment.

Lisa - a graduate of Cerritos College, she's currently a salon hairstylist, so she can finally tell you whether you're using too much product. She's also a scuba diver, so if you make a mistake you'll have NO place to hide!

Well those are just a few candidates, but check out the rest to pick your own personal favorite.

All the Laker Girls do a great job out there. They show up every night whether the Lakers are up by 30 or losing to the Sacramento Kings.

Looks like the Lakers could learn something from them about consistency.

P.S. - My girlfriend actually came up with the idea for this article, so your significant other has no business getting mad at you for reading it! Happy Holidays!
