It’s an age-old question that deserves revisiting every now and then. BroBible has complied a list of its 12 favorite business bitches and while we think it’s definitely a decent start, with your collective expertise we can really nail this thing.
Personally, the bones we have to pick are a) that this isn’t a ranking but just general love-fest. Those things have their place but not here. This is a serious cutthroat competition. Line ‘em up, top to bottom. b) Some entries on the list seem to be the result of the authors have created the thing from the inside of a time machine and c) The lack of Bloomberg representation, especially from someone who is working overtime on the job and had the business sense to take a page from the Amanda Drury playabook. And speaking of the Druries, they’re present and accounted for after the jump. Let’s show a little teamwork and make this thing something to be proud of. Add, subtract and annotate at this time.

* Trish Regan
* Melissa Lee

Drury is at the top of this list. What's the name of the girl that works on the floor of the NYSE on Fox Business? Put her on the list. Melissa Lee? After a night of drinking maybe. Trish Regan? We have a pregnancy fetish here. Where is Courtney Reagan? Smokin' hot baby.

Posted by shitting on tryon st , Oct 28, 2009 1:53PM
that list is fucking awful.
Okay off the top:
Bartoromo - maybe 20 years ago I don't want those saggy tits all up in my face. Not to mention she's put on some weight.
Lee - maybe if she can cook some chinese food. otherwise she's off the list. she could be replaced by the chick from lost in translation that kept saying 'rip my stocking!'
Reagan - having a kid automatically takes you off the list. enjoy the unemployment line...you know the rules.
Boorstin- Can't spell Boorstin without B.O.O.B.J.O.B seriously what are those things? A's 10 year old boys got bigger tits than she does.
Burnett, Jarvis - See Boorstin
Claman - see Bartiromo
All the rest can stay.
Ranking:
Drury
J. Lee
Brennan (HOW THE FUCK DO YOU FORGET MAGGY??)
Francis (love those dick sucking racoon eyes)
Quick (always afraid her lazy eye will not look at me during sex)
That's it, that's the list. Sorry for those of you who are 40, have kids, or A/B Boob size.

Just watch her specials (ie Irag, Africa). She wears tight pants and it looks like any minute, she's going to explode.

Courtney Reagan is in my opinion, the hottest babe on cable tv. Brains and a gorgeous booty. Love to put my IPO between her asscheeks.
