Although winning this award is not as good as an Oscar, I would say that it is on par to winning the Peoples Choice Award.
Whenever you have a strong opinion and aren't afraid to strongly believe in it, it's gonna piss people off.
I liked Howard Cosell. RIP Howie.

don't forget:
1. Ignore facts that discredit your argument
2. Try to bully people into not calling you out
3. Ignore posts that question you too strongly
I'm guessing the only similarity between you and Howard is the bad toupee.
Bully people? nah, I just believe in calling a spade a spade.
And I'll listen to reasonable disagreements, but too many folks here are beyond dense.
<< <i>jr, don't get mad cause I've dissed and dismissed you so many times. >>
You're right, you have dismissed me becasue I've proven you wrong and you can't admit it.

While Axtell does love a lively debate, I see this list as more clearly a detailed description of mr Joe Stalin. He is the one that does each and every one of these things on a habitual basis. Some may think he is cute, but Joe gets my vote for most annoying for sure.

That sounds like Rush Limbaugh

Or Bill O'reilly.
<< <i> I suspect we have a lot of alts voting. >>
I suspect you'd be very right...we all know that spammy has at least 3 or 4, and it wouldn't surprise me that softie created alts just for this poll.
Softie is so trivial that way.

<< <i>If people were asked who the most annoying sportscaster was, they'd probably say Cosell.

Howard Cosell graduated Phi Beta Kappa from an Ivy League university, edited the law review in law school, practiced law successfully for years and rose to world fame as a sportscaster through sheer determination. Along the way he became friends with sports legends from Willie Mays to Muhammed Ali. In short, Cosell was a seriously intelligent and talented man who knew more about sports than all but a handful of non-athletes ever have.
And he was annoying.
Now, imagine Cosell doing all the same broadcasts but with an 8th grade education, a complete lack of common sense, no insight into any sport whatsoever, and a hostility to his fellow man that would make Charles Manson ask "what's up with that jerk?"; then - and only then - can you begin to see yourself as most of the others on these boards see you. It ain't pretty, and the word "annoying" is woefully inadequate.
that would make Charles Manson ask "what's up with that jerk?";
that is a lil harsh. lol

Well according to AX gemmy had 11 votes in his poll too.
Seems to me that the 11 that voted there also voted here.
that is possible no?
Steve
But to be honest, Skip Bayless really gets on my last nerve for some reason.
Happy New Year

I'm sorry you see someone opinionated as annoying...I'm sorry your minds are so closed to different thought processes that you can't learn something...I'm sorry you look at someone outspoken and see the voice and not the message.
Now, get back to your lil circle jerk.
<< <i>So was the intention of this poll to do anything other than have you guys pile on me? Did you think I'd see it and say 'oh no! I can't post anymore!'

Now THAT is calling the kettle black! Watch and learn!
You are the typical piler on...never contributing, except when you see others posting, you'll egg it on.
Don't you have an original thought in that brain of yours, or do you need softie and spammy to spell it out for you?
Most annoying new yorker or some crap like that.
Now when the table has been turned, you, as always twist it around.
I find it very typical of you AX. In almost every case you always do this.
At least this poll was set up in a way to get a legitimate answer.
the poll you created was biased and self serving.
JMO
Steve
I'm up front and honest with what I think, unlike these clowns who change their mind 20 times a day.

Your opinions are not the problem.
And if you confined yourself to just opinion then you would not be in this position. (not that you seem to care anyway)
Just the other day a new comer wanted to know why you always had to start a fight in almost every thread. He did not know you from Adam yet he saw right through you.
Anyway it does not really matter.

Come on Ax, you have got to be kidding.
What was the intent of your biased and unfair poll about the boards NY fans? Gee, could it have been to pile on?

How anyone could create a poll dissing everyone, then have a poll thrown back up at him and not see it is beyond comprehension.
thus my theory that he believes the things that he says and does.
Sad but true.
Steve
I think I might have started LESS than 5 threads about NY sports. Thats it, all i do here besides that is combat the PROPAGANDA spread. Then, I get labled as spewing NY is all great in everything, when IN FACT, I have NEVER debated like that.
Crazy I tell ya

We can wish..................
If someone had 35 alternate ID's and they were a Yankee fan you wouldn't be able to get a word in on this board. Again, congratulations on your strong showing in the poll.

Hmm what were the intent of the numerous polls you've put up in my honor?
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black...typical 'do as I say not as I do' mentality that so permeates these boards.
Is that a reaccuse of the original accusation? Ummmm...Im confused....
hahaha!

Did I say I was as talented as Cosell? Again, reading too much into things. But anyone who has a strong opinion is going to rub people the wrong way.
I am glad I've been fodder for what I am sure is numerous PMs between my critics, congratulating themselves on getting such an overwhelming response.
And guess what? I still don't care.
for a guy that "really does not care" you seem to have to reply time and time again to this thread.
And yes you did compare yourself to Cosell regardless on how you now want to spin that you did not.
No alt Id's here, not a fan of yours and certaintly no pm's to other members regarding this thread.
Stop trying to flatter yourself.
Happy New Year to you.
Steve
