  • The 2009 Cuffy Awards

    The envelopes, please....

    Ladies and Gentlemen, the votes are in for the 2009 Cuffy Awards. With the assistance of Price Waterhouse and election overseer Jimmy Carter, the integrity of the ballot box has been preserved and the winners are as follows:

    2009 MVP

    For this category only, we will announce a first runner-up, a very important designation because if, for any reason, the MVP is unable to fulfill his/her duties (e.g., the nude videos resurface), the first runner-up will assume the title.

    The first runner-up for 2009 CUF MVP is..... SeattleUte

    And the winner is: Triplet Daddy [cue Bert Parks]

    Wittiest Poster: landpoke

    Rookie of the Year (and I’ll let slip that this was by far the closest of the races): Art Vandelay

    Best Performance in a Gentile Role: landpoke

    This is shaping up to be a Wyoming landslide

    Post of the Year: landpoke’s deeply touching testimony about why he comes to CUF

    Great, we're going to get one of those James Cameron "King of the World" acceptance speeches.

    Best Thread: landpoke’s compelling on-the-scene reportage from a saloon

    So which bourbon is the correct acceptance speech bourbon? We may be about to find out...


    Best Post in the Foyer: KatyLied’s Ten Things You Didn’t Know About Ruth

    Best Sports Post: Senioritis’s review of the BYU/Utah B-Ball game


    And finally the category we've all been waiting for: the last one.

    Best Thread Hijack: The Ruination of the Berenstain Bears

    Winners are encouraged to meet backstage for a photo op, followed by a party at Wuap’s house. Thanks to everyone for voting, especially to those who voted early and often.

        Pac, thanks again for your work on this.

        I thought there was a category for best Foyer thread.

            There wasn't, but should have been since there were three Foyer threads nominated for best thread. I would have gone with this one: Theodicy, Suffering and Bart Ehrman, initiated by Solon with some very worthy contributions from several others, including Babs and your bad self.

            What the heck, I'll make a post hoc rules change and award Best Foyer Thread to that one.

                No s***. I'm thinking about sending Sophie, the grandmother of three who was hitting on me at the bar the other night, to accept my awards in protest.

                But seriously, thanks for the nod(s). I realize this may be the internet equivalent of being huge in Belgium, but it is gratifying that my inane, borderline obscene ramblings are something more than annoying.

                Woodford and branch for everyone!
                There's no such thing as luck, only drunken invincibility. Make it happen.

                And Sunday comes afterwards

                  Wow, what a terrific honor. I pledge to follow the great example of previous Rookie of the Year winners, Mike Miller, Joe Charboneau, and Rashaan Salaam and be bussing Wuap's table at the Waffle House within the next 2 years.

                  I do have one question. What do I get for winning this?... ha ha that is funny, like honor and prestige is going to pay for my high speed interert...no seriously what do I get?...well that 4 quarters will get me a piece of year old chocolate at the BYU Bookstore.

                    I can't believe you beat JIC. I voted for you, but I can't believe you beat him.

                      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                        You were disqualified for certain, how shall we say, indiscretions? with my staff.

                          Wow the pre-ROOKIE OF THE YEAR ART VANDELAY would have made an inappropriate comment about your staff, but I'm above that now.
