Cedric 3/24/08It's absolutely pathetic that people can't have an opinion from actually watching games and supplementing that with stats. If you voice an opinion that doesn't fit into a black/white box you will get completely misrepresented and basically called a tobacco chewing traditionalist...
GL to all nominees
I really only read posts.. and i love hanging out in the game thread doing PBP sometimes .. but for the most part anyone who's really done PBP for a complete game does a WONDERFUL Job.. and I thank you all for keeping this So. KY guy who cant watch the games up to speed

When all is said and done more is said than done.
Cyclone was en fuego this year and RedsManRick's posts are always logically driven and well thought out...
missin' my boy Steel.
Most tired topic: 'The leave Krivsky to his devices people'
Best newcomer: Don't think he's technically a newcomer, but Redsupport is a very interesting poster
I am a rookie I only had one at bat as a red and I whiffed. Who am I?
For those who voted me most clever, I appreciate it, and as always, the check is in the mail.
Most missed poster
I miss creek. I wasn’t here in the ORG or Stormy days. I miss Raisor too. But in a totally platonic way.
Best tag line
I stole KittyDuran’s. I wasn’t the only one.
Best Moniker
FCB – the man’s true to his sponsor. It’s the only way I can explain his posts.
Most Valuable Poster
M2 and traderumor
Most Clever
Redsland and BCubb during the season is reason enough
Best Armchair GM
I’d vote M2 here along with woy. Austin Kearns can toss in some good ones as well, even if I don’t agree with him. RFS62 has some real good ideas.
Best Trademeister
Krusty for sheer volume. Trader Frank Lane would be proud.
Best Discussion
This is should be renamed the ‘About 10 of You Best Discussion Award’
Uniform Change was very good topic. It was civil, interesting, informative, and opinionated without any mud slinging. Strange, huh?
Worst Typist
WVPacman.
Funniest
On a good day redsupport just absolutely floors you with unknown Reds. .
Best Use of Statistics
Cyclone for up to date – and woy for the history lessons we need to know.
Most Long-winded
My Brownie-fan buddy GAC. Most of it is stuff we wish never happened to him with the house and falling out of tree and stuff like that. But, hopefully we helped with the Therapy of RedsZone.
Most Positive
LilAbner, Vaticanplum, & the Queens of Positive goodness TeamBoone and Kitty Duran
Most Negative
FCB – but that’s just who he is. Nothing against the man, I never met him, so I base it on stuff I read.
Best Use of an Emoticon
Krono Hurry up, we miss you. Your posts are less than 40 a day.
Nicest
KittyDuran and the Annual RedsZone dash for Team Pictures. Bless you Kitty.
Best Moderator
I wish Boss would post more on baseball topics than system stuff. But if it wasn’t for GIK and Boss, we’d be swimming in the cesspool of cincy.com or mlb.com message boards. Dudes, tip of the cap to you ya’ll.
Best Chatter
GAC – when I was there. Dude multi-tasks a lot with beer drinking, game updates and random conversations. Kudos to Kitty and TB as well through the year for the “shows”
Most Off-Topic
I searched and searched OT stuff. The best ones to me were gas prices and the Dom Heffner “Down Memory Lane” – What was from Cincinnati but were no more. GREAT STUFF – good thought Dom.
Best Newcomer
LilAbner, redsmetz and last season’s late call-up vaticanplum. And I’m married.
Best Outsider
Astrobuddy….just kidding. Sorry – MattyMo4Life and Ramp101.
The Marty Brennamen Award
Tornon – Dude carried us through the Western Swing of Crapola. Double Stars for you.
The Old Red Guard Award
Johnny Footstools’ Comment of Claussen’s Wang-Chung fastball where it tops out at 86. I’m STILL chortling over that one.
Best Historian
This award should be retired and given to woy on a permanent basis.
Lifetime Achievement Award
The Triumverate of Redread, RFS62 and M2. Honorable Mention to RANDY_IN_CHAR_NC & traderumor.
Most Tired Topic of the Year
Any thread involving “The Trade”, Adam Dunn trade proposals, and winter blahs.
