No, you can nominate in this thread as well.

I think we should have two seperate poster of the year categories, one for best sports poster and another for random crap poster.

Its a sensible suggestion but at this point the cuffies are looking like a bust to me (unless Tim is getting a lot of nominations)... I'm a failure ... so I am not sure it matters. Probably should have just done like three categories and called it good.

Hey, I sent my nominations to Tim this morning.

Aw man! That's it?? I want a category for best poster/fan of a BCS school. (TD, Lebowski, you guys are going DOWN.)


Anyhow, can you really have year-end awards for a board that only existed for six weeks of 2008?

Well I thought it was clear that they were CUF/guard awards. So nominate Waters for a few categories.

I've gotten quite a few nominations, actually. Those who haven't made nominations, though, are encouraged to so ASAP. I'm still accepting nominations until tomorrow night at midnight EST.
