I thought those awards at ESPN when many of us were there were very nice. I don't recall anyone having their feelings hurt at all. It was a nice tradition, and this board is one million times better but owes much of its success to the mass exodus of ESPN posters who got this place up and flying immediately, which I 'm sure helped make it all the more appealing to folks who stopped by and came onboard.
It Steve's place and his decision Scav, but Somer started those a long time ago.
