The 2010 Navarro Thread of the Year Award

MeteoriteGuy

At over 1500 postings strong, and with leading group opinion in both the primary selection process, and the final polling, I am happy to present to Mike "thenavarro", the first ever CU Thread of the Year Award, now known as the Navarro Thread of the Year Award.

Thanks for your sharing your amazing and continually growing collection.

thenavarro's official Topps HOF & Legends signed rookie cards



Honorable mention is extended to Mike thekid8 for tireless postings in his "A Year of Gary Carter"; to Dpeck for a moment in CU history with his 1000+ post wrestling thread; to muggeyman and Fergie for their always entertaining pack rips; to Corvette and itzagoner for teaching us how to get rid of a corvette; and to BunchOBull for his work on the NNOF.

Thanks also for your comments on the yearbook thread.

Clear Skies,
Mark

Thanks Mark, I have a lot of fun collecting those signed rookie cards. I still enjoy the "thrill of the chase" that we all have. It's that thrill that fuels the passion (or madness depending on perspective ) for collecting. I'm glad there is a community of like individuals here on the web to share that with, to learn from, to admire their collections, and basically just to hang out amongst friends.

Looking forward to a great 2011 for all of our collections!!

Hey Mark
Thanks for putting the poll together

I congratulate Mike N for winning this year --- his thread is downright amazing ~ the sheer number of autos are incredible and just when you think it begins to slow down he throws a story about Sully or Pres Bush or C3PO etc... if there is a card out there and you are famous or infamous he will add it to his collection --- cant wait to see what the coming years bring.

Its been a blast posting to the Carter thread and I am glad that others out there have found it enjoyable

Thanks again for including me in the mix.

CONGRATS MR. N. An honor well deserved.

Thanks go out to EVERYONE who posts on a frequent basis. As I have said in other threads, our family and non-collecting friends think we are OUT OF OUR MINDS doing what we do... spending countless hours and sometimes crazy money playing with other grown men with cardboard that have pictures of guys on them!

Although most of us have not met one another in person, it's GREAT to have FRIENDS to share our hobby with.

I agree...well deserved.


...and I guess those PayPal gift bribes to the judges to give me the award, didn't work.

Congratulations!! Awesome accomplishment.

It is well deserved, especially the name title. As Mike's agent I do need to know what kind of monotary bonus my client is due. Let the negotiations begin! Fair warning though...I tend to make Boras look like Mother Teresa.

This contest was not even close in reality. Mike has put forth an extreme amount of effort to not only track down his unreal auto's but to bring them to the attention of the other board members who log on frequently.

Thanks for the hard work and excellent thread!

And thanks for your "other" comments as well. I'm still laughing over those.
