2007 College Football Blog Awards

I stole some of this writeup from Orson Swindle at EDSBS. I hope he doesn’t report me to the NCAA.

What: The College Football Blog Awards 2007

Who: Any blogger with a functioning, active college football-centered blog really, though a committee protects the people’s interests: Brian Cook from MGoBlog, T. Kyle King from Dawg Sports, Joel of Rocky Top Talk, Peter Bean of Burnt Orange Nation, and yours truly.

Losers With Socks was nominated for the funniest blog last year. Of course we were treated like Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl and got our pee-pee spanked. I need your nomination and votes.

I think we compete for the funniest blog; best photoshop,  Possibly funniest post…

and with Angry Eer posting here, why not the best Big East Blog???

Why? To recognize the finest in college football blogging in all its shades and varietals: funny, analytical, bitter, snarky, hopeful, speedy, thorough…we hope to catch them all.

How?

The categories are listed in the table at the bottom.

Best, for bloggers: Treat it like a multi-post roundtable. Nominate, in a post on your site, whomever you like for whatever you like (two or three blogs/posts for each category). Spread them out over the week and provide some commentary for why you believe the nominee is worthy. This commentary has a good chance of winding up as a quote and link in the award presentation post if your nominee wins or is a runner-up. Once you finish your nomination post(s), DON’T FORGET to post a link to your nomination post in the comment thread of this post, or else we might not ever see them.

Better, for bloggers: Treat it like a single-post roundtable. Do the same as above, but do all of your nominations in one post.

Good, for bloggers: Link dump, no commentary.

Best, for readers. Post your nominees in the comment section of your favorite blogger’s nomination posts.

Good, for readers. Use the nomination gizmo.

Important: Bloggers, you can’t nominate yourself or any of your own posts for any of the awards. Also, please keep in mind that just because you make a nomination or are nominated for an award does not mean that you will make the final list of 3-6 official nominees. Each category will have 2-4 official nominees that we’ll select by looking at who/what received the most nominations and one or two “editors choice” nominees in an effort to get deserving but less popular blogs in front of the voters.

Please don’t neglect the individual post awards, as we expect nominations in that area to be a little thin.

Here are some of our big hitters:

I voted LWS for the funniest blog, best photoshop, best SEC and BE blog. You just know that the Big East bloggers blow as bad as their brand of football.

I forgot to vote for the “Houndstooth = Crown of Thorns”

2. AngryEer - January 21, 2008

You got my vote too. I promise that I am the best of all of the Big East Bloggers…….those boys suck

3. Saban Felcher - January 21, 2008

Classic Gator shit. Create and run a blogger award, somehow get nominated for every award, which he will “win” then have the balls to tell everyone this: Oh, and while not eliminating anyone, open campaigning for votes by bloggers was considered “in poor taste” by the Cabal, and “aggressively whorish” by Orson. All the while his very post is nothing but a huge votre for EDSBS, Orson, and Spencer Hall.

I can’t believe others doen’t see this

That dude is so overrrated. I used to read him everday, now he is jjust a fucking windbag

Congrats on the nomination for the funniest blog, like you have a snwoballs chance in hell of winning. I would bet that the winner is already selected and it will be a buddy of Swindles.
Did you see he ripped your off your recruiting word of the day?

10. Fuck You florida - February 6, 2008

that tebow pic not making the top 5 is criminal. even mor criiminal is 4 photoshops from edsbs making it. some of them were not funny or very good.

wasn’t the tebow shop in sports illustrated?

11. Jai Eugene - February 6, 2008

Good point. I suppose readers felt that the EDSBS stuff was more clever and innovative than the Tebow-Jorts picture

12. Dirt Mcgirt - February 8, 2008

Why does EDSBS have such a cult like following? Those fuckers lap up what ever shit Orson throws on that fucking page like little puppies. Does anyone care about his obscure 1980\’s references? Jesus Christ. I can\’t even think of the last time I checked that damn site. It’s the same shit over and over again.

And Fulmer Cup? That\’s a fucking joke. He waits until the fucking Gaytors sign a confession and are video taped in the act before he would award points to UF. Anyone else, like Kansas or Georgia Tech, has a player even rumored to be alleged of misconduct he hits that ass quicker than Ron Jeremy.

Fulmer Cup… suck my dick

13. Sports Fan - February 9, 2008

How long does this thing go on?

14. Ears Whitworth - February 9, 2008

the swindle awards….however long Swindle wants it to go on….he owns the internet

15. Ed Orgeron - February 9, 2008

I would destroy Swindle’s punk ass.

Fear the O

17. Winner With Socks - February 14, 2008

Not only is Orson funnier than you ass clowns, but his photoshops are much better. Many of yours look like they were done by retarded blind kids. Only a true fucking moron- or a Canadian- could do worse work than you.

Orson may be a used douche, but you’re far worse. He pwns you bitches.

18. 3rd Down H-Back - February 14, 2008

Orson’s photoshops are shit compared to the glory Jai puts out. EDSBS’s shit has never been brought up by SI.

You are a true product of the Birmingham school system. And please don’t pwn me again, you fucking cock holster.

19. AngryEer - February 14, 2008

Canadian made me laugh @17

20. Ears Whitworth - February 14, 2008

Here i what I think:

I think that if you look at EDSBS page with all of the awards from last year; Look at who has the preponderance of nominations for this year [EDSBS]; and who is the lead web site behind this year’s awards link (EDSBS); and who will win? Wanna guess?

These awards are nothing but a celebration of Swindle and EDSBS, if you don’t see that you are just a ignorant dumb-ass Bammer. That Tebow pic was equal too if not better than his bullshit.

Him and that blogger from Dawg Sports, who is went all Jenna Jameson on Swindle , that reminds me of the employee of the month

Here is the oral copulation by the Dawg. This is some pathetic knob polishing:

21. Richard Marx - February 14, 2008

Hell yes, sing it Ears. That dawg got some swingle man seed on his lips

22. Ears Whitworth - February 14, 2008

I believe that @17 is one of his bitches too.

23. Vince - February 14, 2008

Fuck EDSBS, Fuck Swindle, Fuck Florida

24. GATA 47 - February 14, 2008

I read those links to the DawgSports. How embarrassed should that guy be? Could he have been anymore gay? Well yes, I suppose he could have been jerking off to Swindles Website…Geeez…what a queer

25. Dirt Mcgirt - March 3, 2008

http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/2008/03/03/cfbas-funniest-blog/#more-4676

Swindle strikes again. What did you do to piss him off, Jai? That man and his cronies have it out for you.

26. Legend of a Nation - March 3, 2008

I gotta agree with Dirt. He did the “Gator Thing” and slammed a tennessee blog that makes fun of him and his tired old schtick.

I am tuning in to watch his win of the photoshop award.

These awards are the biggest bunch of shit since any Mexican Election

27. Ears Whitworth - March 3, 2008

Jai

Didn’t you guys catch him stealing material from here once? I remember a bit of a fracas with him.

Mexican Election? LOL That sums up this CFB Awards. A bunch of dicks getting together to give each other awards.

28. Dirt Mcgirt - March 3, 2008

Once… LOL, it was once a week for a long time. After the people here, even some of the Gaytor commenters, caught his ass like Mark Foley Swindle (appropriate name) has backed off.

29. Ears Whitworth - March 3, 2008

Frankly I don’t read his stuff anymore. He has drank much to much of his own kool-aid. He has become unreadable at times.

Consequently I have not seen Swindle getting “caught”. I am amazed that his commenters would say anything at all. It is almost cult-like as he regeneerates the same old shit .

I did notice that EDSBS started posting polls only after Jai started using them. Coincidence?

The Photoshop award is the biggest load of horse hockey ever. I wonder who wins it?

30. GATA47 - March 3, 2008

UGA Sports, Rocky Top Talk, EDSBS, Burnt Orange Nation are all fellating one another…

Genius, create awards, promote awards and give awards to each other and/or their personal satellite websites…..

Genius I say. Maybe someone shoould do a fair and balanced CFB Awards

31. Ears Whitworth - March 5, 2008

http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/2008/03/04/cfbas-2008-nobody-does-it-better-secmnc/

Holy shit, what an effing sausage fest with this crew. Did any other blogs ever really have a chance? Nope, not ever. This was a celebration of Swindle.

SMQ, MGO, RTT,EDSBS? Jesus Jai, I am amazed that you even thought you had a chance at winning.

If I was Swindle and his pissboys, I would be embarrassed.

32. John - March 5, 2008

Ears, how can you forget about Dawg Sports dude? He polishes the waifish elf-like knob of Swindle too. God I felt sorry for that guy after reading his man-love post.

33. Ears Whitworth - March 5, 2008

look at your Boy at Rocky Top Talk washing Swindles Balls. Do they not see how queer they are?

. . . Every Day Should Be Saturday. Really, was there any doubt? I mean whose incandescently bright idea was it to post the poll for the People’s Champ Award at Orson’s anyway? Shoot, that’s like having college football coaches vote in polls that will decide post-season bowl . . .

34. Ears Whitworth - March 5, 2008

shit, here is the link.

http://www.rockytoptalk.com/story/2008/3/4/175217/2367

I find this ball washing so facinating. I just wonder why they so shamelessly look for his seed, Why?

35. Dirt Mcgirt - March 5, 2008

EDSBS, RTT, and the others just needed to have their own little gay pride parade to take their minds off the fact they take it up the ass. LWS should be happy they weren’t invited to the Greek scramble hosted by Orson.

36. Pearl Jam 2008 - March 5, 2008

i am sad for them all. Gay begets geigh. they will all burn in a lake of fire
