The EliteDawg Awards are back. Time for Nominations.

Listed below are all of the Awards, as well as the last winner of each award.

To determine who makes the ballot we are depending on your nominations. In this thread, nominate posters for the Awards....but please limit this thread to nominations. Someone can create a new thread to discuss, but it's hard to weed through a discussion thread to find nominations.

Glad you added steakonastick and Homedawg, msstate7.

Why are y'all so scared to say who the worst moderator is? Nobody has named a mod as worst, knowing y'all don't like at least one of them/us. C'mon guys, let the mods have it. Lol

[JDog13]

Worst mod - IShitbirdItdawg

[Ari Gold]

Quick takes:

Basketball Award.
Anyone and all that said IJ was the worse defensive player on the team last year withdraw your names from this award you are disqualified

Baseball Award.
All that said Grid couldn't play shortstop remove urself form this category you are disqualified

Sly Croom Award / MVP.
Anyone that nominates themselves for this award they win and they also become a candidate for poster of the year for just acknowledging how bad they do suck.


And to add a category.
1st annual I Seen It Shitbird Award. My vote goes to Jim Shute.

[Token Bammer]

Sly Croom Award / MVP.
Anyone that nominates themselves for this award they win and they also become a candidate for poster of the year for just acknowledging how bad they do suck.

I nominate myself for the Sly Croom Award for three reasons:

1. I'm a BAMMER. Sly is a BAMMER. It just works doesn't it?

2. I named myself "Token Bammer" not realizing you bunch of dawgs already had a token bammer in Tusk. So I'm like a second class second class citizen with a bunk username.

3. Ari says whomever nominates themselves for this award is a winner, and "I ain't never been nothing but a winner". Roll Tide!

Best Username - Random Poster (an elegant replacement pseudonym, lol)

Crootin Award - IYOK

Meltdown Central Award (Melts the most) - Msstate7 in the lead, with I Seen It Dawg as a close second (only because his in game posts are incomprehensible due to the number of four character combos of "****", such as: "that ****ing moron ****. **** this game. I'm ****ing out!")

Also, I think some credit needs to be steered to BeastMan for his efforts with the "Weekend Cooking and Drinking" threads. Those are easily some of my favorite on the board, and it's a great opportunity for us to put sports, politics, etc. aside and get into things that really matter: food and booze.
