who do you guys think should be gettin' sum awardz:

Your choices are all correct except I would also pick LDT for OPOY and I wouldn't even think about Brees for MVP. I mean he's been good and everything but come on, this is just sentimental pish-posh.

― Michael (Oakland Mike), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

DROY: kamerion wimbley or tamba hali

i think breezy is pretty deserving, though the last coupla saints games have been a little underwhelming. he's a solid number 2 behind ladainian, if nothing else.

― aidsy (aidsy), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 21:56 (seventeen years ago) link

MVP: Peyton, that team is lucky to crack .500 without him
OROY: Young, but it's pretty stiff competition. I'd go with Colston second, then maybe MOJO. They're never giving it to a lineman, dude.
DROY: got me, Ryans, I suppose?
DPOY: Taylor
OPOY: Ladainian

― forksclovetofu (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 22:46 (seventeen years ago) link

oh oh, i forgot Champ Bailey for DPOY. he and taylor should split it. the fact that he leads the league in INTs for two consecutive years even though nobody really throws to him is pretty unbelievable. dude is on some next-level shit.

― aidsy (aidsy), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 22:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Pennington isn't a bad quarterback. I'm not going to claim him as a HOFer or anything like that but he's good at what he does. And the arm is better than people think. The Jets look like a .500 team and give or take a few breaks or bounces their record could just as easily be 6-9 as 9-6. I suspect they'll make the playoff, but it will be a one and done. Mangini's done a good coaching job, but Payton's still coach of the year.

― Ice Ice Cream Baby (The Dirty Vicar), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 22:59 (seventeen years ago) link

They're never giving it to a lineman, dude.

So what?

― Michael (Oakland Mike), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 23:02 (seventeen years ago) link

he's a solid number 2 behind ladainian, if nothing else.

I'd go:

1. LDT
2. They're saying "Mooooooovers"
3. Brees
4. LJ
5. Frank Gore

― Michael (Oakland Mike), Wednesday, 27 December 2006 23:04 (seventeen years ago) link

So what?

So, reality check. All else being equal, I'd still have to go with Young. Dude's been winning games on his lonesome.

― forksclovetofu (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 28 December 2006 00:44 (seventeen years ago) link

you mean aside from the game that pacman won? the guy is legit though.

comeback player of the year: javon walker?

― aidsy (aidsy), Thursday, 28 December 2006 00:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Possibly. Maybe McGahee or Gore.

― forksclovetofu (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:03 (seventeen years ago) link

now that i think about it, CPOY should be warren sapp. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him dominate brian waters like he did on saturday. maybe waters is just more washed up than him, but i find that hard to believe.

― aidsy (aidsy), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:04 (seventeen years ago) link

T.O. for comeback player of the year!

― bohren un der club of gear (bohren un der club of gear), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, not Gore. Kinda hard to comeback in your second year. Never mind.

― forksclovetofu (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:06 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost, that's just spitting in the wind.

― forksclovetofu (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Young's had a good rookie year. But the real story for Tennessee has been the defense. They've won a few games on their own and have kept the scores close enough so that Young can do his thing. I like how Norm Chow and Fisher have tailored the offense to suit Young's skills. Seeing how Tennessee started with five losses and the way they've recovered I think Fisher ought to be in the running for COY.

How about Norm Chow to Atlanta for head coach? Now that might be a good fit.

― Ice Ice Cream Baby (The Dirty Vicar), Thursday, 28 December 2006 01:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Vince Young is definitely the straw that stirs the Titans drink, as once he got in the the lineup, their offense could control the ball which led to their defense improving as they were not having to play 3/4 of a game. I think Travis Henry deserves something, as that dude has played great for Tennessee.

Payton is coach of the year. Anyone that wins with the Saints should be coach of the year, let alone all that went down last year. Criminy, the dude deserves some serious points for just how he skunked Parcells in Dallas with a few calls coming up right. NO's general manager Loomis deserves some serious props, as that guy made a few calls in both the draft and free agency which look sweet. Colston looks to be the steal of the draft.

Linebacker AJ Hawk has also had a good rookie year for the Packers. I've been impressed by what I have seen from him.

Before I totally forget:

Sometime last week, I woke up (in the PM) to Colin Cowherd on ESPN Radio trying to justify Matt Millen's continued employment. His defense: a large number of the guys that MM drafted are starting for the Lions, so, hey, he must be doing something right.

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Thursday, 28 December 2006 14:44 (seventeen years ago) link

DPOY should go to devin hester since there's no STROY to give him.
alternatively the bears can win the super bowl and give him the MVP like the packers in 1996.

― TOM. BOT. (trm), Thursday, 28 December 2006 14:48 (seventeen years ago) link

I mean seriously the packers won the super bowl that year guys and gave the mvp to their punt returner, have you heard about this? also brett favre once had an opiate problem.

― TOM. BOT. (trm), Thursday, 28 December 2006 14:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Sometimes ESPN says the dumbest things. Millen may survive another year. He's like the cockroach of general managers.

― Ice Ice Cream Baby (The Dirty Vicar), Thursday, 28 December 2006 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Alternatively the Bears can just fuck the hell right off.

“The worst offenders are the defensive line. And Gibril Wilson is the ringleader of the group. They’re taking out the girls, bringing them to parties and making them skip work. [They have] been practically living at the club and picking the girls off a lot more than they’ve been picking off passes. They’re here all the time and I’m sick of them. I hope they read this and get pisseed off and stop coming.”

Out There Story of the Day!!!
According to the asshats at profootballtalk so don’t believe a word:

The Krafts may let Belichick go because he allegedly had an affair with a married woman from New Jersey. WTF. I now have a mental image burned into my brain of Belichick sexing-up wearing nothing but his sweatshirt. Ewwwwww!!! Please dear God make it stop!!!!!

Belichick, giving love a bad name.

― clevo lk (clevo lk), Friday, 29 December 2006 14:30 (seventeen years ago) link

that story is is months fucking old, and it's not the first one that's gone around. that's why bb earned the "hooded cassanova" nickname at cstb. i don't think the krafts would let him go for any sort of zipper problems unless he drifts into dave meggett territory.

― otto midnight, that 'tofu makes you gay' ding dong (otto midnight), Friday, 29 December 2006 14:33 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't believe that Belichick has genitals, is the thing.

― Allyzay heard you got beat up in a club. (Allyzay Eisenschefter), Friday, 29 December 2006 15:12 (seventeen years ago) link

He has spores! That's why he wears baggy sweats! To keep them moist & dark!

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 29 December 2006 15:18 (seventeen years ago) link

are they green? Are his teste's verde?

god I'm bored

ME TOO

but he doesn't have any testes.

every time i stand up i get dizzy and then when i sit down it still takes a few seconds for me to be sure i won't pass out. so i've been getting up and walking about the square of cubicles every couple of minutes because i'm the only one in them today. i think there are only 3 people on the second floor today.

BBBBOOOOOOOOOORRRRRREEEEEEEDDDDDDD!!!!!!!

There are more people in my office today than yesterday. Someone had the shits this morning, & is working from home. WTF is wrong w/ people?

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:11 (seventeen years ago) link

My coworker missed his bus this morning, offered to work from home (keep in mind that he is on the road most of the time, so he is specifically set up to work remotely 80% of the time and it wouldn't be unusual), was told he HAD to come in by our boss (despite fact that we have received very few inquiries or responses this week due to holiday and we're only working a half day today), so he drove in. Goes and parks in our parking garage (ie the private one in our building, that our company owns, that only company employees can park in) AND THEY CHARGED HIM $10 FOR THE PRIVLEDGE. WTF?

― Allyzay heard you got beat up in a club. (Allyzay Eisenschefter), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

For comparison's sake, there are multiple public garages surrounding our building, all of which have $5 "early bird specials" that cover parking from like anytime before 8:30 until 5 or 6pm, so he's paying double price to park IN HIS OWN COMPANY'S LOT. Who has ever heard of this?

― Allyzay heard you got beat up in a club. (Allyzay Eisenschefter), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:14 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm so happy I take the train. DO NOT PARK

NFL miracle = we leave at 3pm today. Magnum of red wine, goodbye.

― clevo lk (clevo lk), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, obviously take public transit if you can, coworker in question wouldn't have been driving if not for fact he was ordered to come in for no good reason.

― Allyzay heard you got beat up in a club. (Allyzay Eisenschefter), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha - I was asked if I'd be around this weekend in case shit goes down because THE BUSINESS will be working on year-end reporting, & I might have to be around to bitch @ in case the reporting portal poops its Pampers. Good thing I'm a loser!

CANKLES TAKE ME AWAY

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 29 December 2006 16:36 (seventeen years ago) link

$10 is highway robbery to park, but $5 is actually pretty reasonable (cheaper than where I work).

Getting out early means I can watch the SUN BOWL. Vern Lundquist, hang on, I'm coming home.
