You're always a barrel of laughs. I want you to try Domino's new NY-style pizza just for the jokes that would ensue.

 

[DialUp]

The competition would be fierce but we do we need a 'best sarcastic middle-aged person' award...

Exactly, about 95% of this board!

 

[will1066]

I can't even complain this year about it. That said I think there are plenty of other angry posters that get overshadowed by my presence.

You're too modest. The way you elevated your irrational comments about Shesty in the third round after pretty much a chill reg season and two playoff rounds was like an elite player taking over a game when the table stakes became USDA Prime. Panarin could use a lesson or two from you about elevating your game.

 

[CasusBelli]

Puck don't lie. Numbers don't lie.

But what about the eye test?

 

[will1066]

But what about the eye test?

@Machinehead has outlawed that

Vote for me for the first Emily Kaplan Devotion Award. Have to say the Kaplanatics were in full force this past season, which warmed my loins.

Is your favorite QB Colin Kaplanack? Do you drive a Toyota Kaplander?

 

[egelband]

Since -31- died, Bob has had a firm grip on the funniest poster. I've been working hard to transition away from a crowded field and stiff competition this year so please, cast your vote for me in the new Most Violent Poster award.

Thirty One passed away? He’s one of my favorite posters. Was hoping his absence was simply him being tired of this nonsense!

In all honesty, I could sit here just adding everyone's names all day because I do genuinely like basically everyone. Maybe I'm in the minority. I don't have a problem with any of you fine folks and more than anything, hope you all know I appreciate this place!

Did you seriously call bernmeister the most knowledgeable poster?

1. I vaguely resemble that remark
I say vaguely b'c yeah, I contribute useful stuff, but as to pure knowledge, I am as ever obliged to say @RangerBoy , unless I want to have him only as mvp

2. To paraphrase John Lennon in Imagine, "he's not the only one"

thank you all!

 

[Kane One]

The competition would be fierce but we do we need a 'best sarcastic middle-aged person' award...

I voted for @Megustaelhockey enough, but this would be an easy W for him.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I voted for @Megustaelhockey enough, but this would be an easy W for him.

In my high school yearbook, I won "55 year old trapped in the body of a high school senior," so I was obviously born old... don't forget to maximize contributions to your 401k, alright?

You're also not THAT much younger than me.

 

[bernmeister]

Let's have low-stress fun for once.

Please submit nominations for the following awards:

-Funniest Poster tie, @EdJovanovski + @Leonardo87 + @GoAwayPanarin

-Nicest Poster @Bacon Artemi Bravo hon mention @Tob @Bob Richards

-Most Knowledgeable @RangerBoy, hon mention @Amazing Kreiderman

-Angriest Poster -- who else but @SnowblindNYR , but he's getting competition

-Best New/Young Poster -- have to get back to you who is new/young

-The Edge Memorial Award for Board MVP @Machinehead

In addition, one poster will be receiving a lifetime achievement award, details to follow.

I request we add a category: most creative contributions.
With all my outside the box presentations, I can in good conscience accept that.
@RangerBoy is usually most knowledgeable, imo

 

[Synergy27]

This thread is my yearly reminder that this board means much more to me than I do to it.

I’ve been at this for twenty years and I think I just blend into the background here.

 

[B17 Apricots]

Aside from all the regular great posters here... I feel like there was a guy named sir avangard on here that I used to die laughing reading his stuff. Wonder where he's at

Well it's better than being the angriest poster every year.

The trick is to make a jackass of yourself then people will notice.
