[clashmore_mike]

2012 Winner: Just out of curiosity? (President)


Nominees:

 

[NDBoiler]

Easy -

Question about a girl

 

[rikkitikki08]

The duck dynasty thread, I've never had some much fun in a thread

 

[dublinirish]

i enjoyed the Lubbock, TX thread ha

 

[wizards8507]

Second.

 

[connor_in]

does the Elam thread count...that was almost never about football and almost always off topic

 

[IrishLax]

Question about a girl
Duck Dynasty

 

[IrishLion]

I vote the "God, Bible, Jesus" thread. It was a fantastic display of civil posting on a "touchy" topic. The fact that it went as long as it did without someone getting banned for religious insults/bickering should win Al Gore's Internet of the Year Award.

Everyone in that thread showed up and brought something useful to the table.

EDIT: Damn, that's a 2014 thread I guess.

I was under the impression that bans, religious insults, and bickering were prerequisites for consideration...

IE Gameday Mega Metal Mix.
(At least for me I love that thread )

Question about a girl. It's no brainer. When you're laughing your ass off and your wife wants to know what's so funny, then reads it and cracks up herself. Tells you all you need to know.

BTW.....Did he ever PIIHB?

What was that thread where someone posted some idiotic question/statement and then we just started posting gifs and memes? Then greyhammer posted all the spiderman memes. I nominate that one.

Me too, mostly because of the Spider Man hijacking ... but I can't remember the name of the thread either.

Question About a Girl technically is a 2014 thread though, isn't it?

We should have some type of Grammy rule here-- like if it came by a certain date, then it is still valid.

QAAG should definitely win...but does it meet the standard?

And yes, we have high standards here

This one is escaping me. Reminder, please.

 

[GoIrish41]

Is it possible for the Just out of Curiosity ... thread to repeat as the winner?

 

[ulukinatme]

I think you've got to put Question about a girl in here, even if it originated in 2014. Unless we specifically disqualified any threads last year, I say include all threads that fall within a year of the last awards.

 

[Rhode Irish]

I don't know the name of the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman thread, but that one got a little hot for while.

 

[Cackalacky]

George Zimmerman Thread

edit RI beat me.

I think we should establish that IE years run from signing day to signing day for the purposes of these kinds of things.

Duck Dynasty was great thread.

I also enjoyed the way Tommy's thread went off track about what makes a player a Notre Dame Man. That was some good discussion with a lot of differing opinions.
