KNOXVILLE We compare two pop-culture subjects to see which you like better. To be included in next week's tally, go to www.Knoxville.com to vote for your favorite before noon on Monday. This week's match:
ROBERT PATTINSON vs. TAYLOR LAUTNER
Oh yes, ladies. "Twilight" has two hunks in play for "The Twilight Saga: New Moon." And with the two setting hearts aflutter, we're wondering which one you want the most. (Guys, you can totally vote, too. We don't judge. We just giggle behind your back.)
TYPE
Robert: As warm-hearted vampire dude Edward, he's gray, thin and got hair so high that only Fonzie could appreciate it fully.
Taylor: Playing sizzling wolf boy Jacob, he's all beefy, dark - and he can leap from a tree limb to your bedroom window like nobody's business.
GIRLS
Robert: Rumor says he has a thing going with "Twilight" co-star Kristen Stewart.
Taylor: Well, Taylor Swift did give him a shout-out when she was on "Saturday Night Live" recently. But isn't it creepy to have the same name as your girlfriend?
WHAT WOULD LANE KIFFIN DO?
Robert: The University of Tennessee's head football coach probably would not recruit him; he's got a swimmer's build, not a football player's. And if Robert is really a vampire, he could never make the day games.
Taylor: Kiffin would definitely want to sign him. He has mad rushing skills, but Kiffin would have to reign in Taylor's tendency to bay at the moon during night games or whenever Steve Spurrier is around.
WHAT HIS CAR'S BUMPER STICKER SAYS
Robert: "I can totally be a pain in the neck!"
Taylor: "My bark is not worse than my bite!"
LAST WEEK: 2009 vs. 2012
Our pick: 2009. We will deal with the here and now.
Your pick: A split vote, 50-50!
