RTS awards 2010

Please add to the list or tell me where I am wrong. I whipped this up pretty quick.

The don't let the door hit you in the ass award. The nominees:
A. Tim Brewster
B. Brett Favre
C. Brad Childress
D. Randy Moss

The winner is... Brett Favre. I hated him for years, was leery of bringing him in in the first place, was sucked into irrational thinking while the Vikes were winning only to be slapped in the face with his penis.

How are you so gosh darn stupid?!? award. The nominees:
A. Brad Childress
B. Tim Brewster
C. Sidney Rice
D. Royce White (Sure it was 2009, but we missed the opportunity to nominate him last year)

The winner is... Sidney Rice. He dismissed 2 doctors recommendations for surgery as soon as the season ended only to have the surgery right before the season started. He put the first hole in this titanicesque season. The cherry on the top was that in his return he had a huge game leaving the fans wondering what if.

The STFU right now award. The nominees:
A. Chris Kluwe
B. Minnesota sluggers
C. Randy Moss
D. Minnesota fans (Your teams suck, get used to it)
E. Tim Brewster

The winner is... Minnesota sluggers. Mark Teixeira had no problem tattooing one out of the park in game 1.

Worst Minnesota team 2010:
A. Gopher Football
B. Vikings
C. Timberwolves
D. The post season Minnesota Twins

The winner is...The post season Minnesota Twins. How predictable was that 3 game series? In a year when everyone said the Yankees were suspect, the Twins could not even win 1 game. Not one! They were even at home for 2 games! Of all the teams on this list they were the only one who really had a chance to improve on last year and alas it was the same old result.

Nicely done, RTS. I can't argue with any of your answers, although you could make a case for almost anyone you listed. Particularly with our buddy Tim Brewster.

While we're on the topic of the football gods, check this out. I really think we will continue to get punished as long as we play in a dome.

RTS - Agreed on all until the last one, has to be a tie between the Twins and Vikes, hurts more that way I think.


Can you imagine how badly we are gonna get beat by Philly on Sunday night? Ugh. End the season already.
