2016 Envies

[IrishLion]

Add in 'Call of the century", where I nominate my 2013 call out of Longo. Against all odds, and members of IE, I stood strong in my stance that he was a donut juggling buddah body of a S/C coach and needed to go.

You'd be destined to lose, because I'd nominate GK for trying to convince us that Brian Kelly kind of sucks and that there was a potential disaster on the horizon, but nobody would listen to him.

I'd be honored to fall 2nd to a poster/statement that looked virtual banishment in the face and stood strong in his opinion that BK wasn't a good coach.

I never got the love I deserved when I told you all that Everett Golson sucked after the Rice game in 2014 when he went 14-22-0-295-2.

Observations from section 3:

1. Golson is not a great quarterback. He's a great athlete and an okay quarterback. His athleticism saved slow decision making several times. He looks uncomfortable in the pocket and tends to have happy feet. That said, holy athlete.

So section 3 was where the weed was. I was wondering...

Cause you wimped out after a few weeks. GK/My bold statements lasted years each.

 

[Irish Insanity]

what if the award was worded a bit differently, such as "least optimistic poster"?

No reason to add to the pussification of America. Call it what it is.

-Best Drunk Posts
-Most Spectacularly Wrong Predictions Posts
-Thread Derailment Champ

All good ideas.

I think we actually should have the "Wow... Good Call." award.

After having nominated GK, I'm thinking maybe I'd go with Koon/Longo after all, just for longevity.

 

[Irish#1]

I think he played basketball at ND?

Valpo, hence Crusader.

I thought we stopped doing these, because of all of the bitchin' and moaning about people not getting nominated, then the general complaining. Might be best just to list every posters handle that has posted in the last year in each poll. That way those whose feelings get hurt, will at least have a participation trophy.

I vote myself for the "Most Valuable Poster Who Disappeared Unexpectedly"

I've been here 4+ years and post a lot, yet never won an Envie. It's because I'm a Bama fan, isn't it? Bunch of bigoted, misbamanistic, xenophobic, Nazi bastards! I get an award this year or there are gonna be riots and I swear I'll trash a Starbucks. No Envie, no peace!

Just hand out a participation trophy to everyone and be done with it.

It's already started. Just hand out a participation trophy to everyone and be done with it.

Watch your mouth, you're talking to the reigning "Most Likely to be Banned" here.

Lol i remember Feud of the Year was generally Koon vs errbody

I should be nominated with KMoose and also with Piombino.

Really? That's a bad choice. You're strongminded and have some controversial positions, but generally follow the rules.

For a "Most Likely to be Banned" winner you gotta look for the guy who totally destroys any thread he's in and won't shut up after everyone stops cari... Oh yeah I see it now.

 

[dublinirish]

Off-Topic thread of the year? lol

If "About A Girl" doesn't win, this whole awards thing is an unbelievable and utter shit show. Hands down the most uncomfortable thread I have ever trolled on.

IE is a sort of online Spartan agoge. If you survive long enough, your internet muscles get super swole.

If it resurfaced, its fair game. And it is still awful after all this time. LMAO.

This. Problem is several of his rivalries will get votes. May need to adopt a runoff voting

Don't mistake the indifference of an apex predator for weakness. He's basically invincible now.

That's true. After thinking more thoughtfully, I am impressed at his affable nature throughout his IE tenure in the face of ~20 starting quarterbacks for the Browns. Many men have been broken, myself included.
