Lots of stiffs on this ballet, what is Pike doing on here? Schumpter? Really? Bill 806 and his "blow the team up/blockbusta" shtick? 

Harness I don't believe posted in 2012. 

Moonslav gets my vote but there are plenty of thoughtful contributors not listed, maybe that was your point. :)

  Or SHUCKS, I feel so HUMBLE to be mentioned with such fine posters, my mentor SOFTY  !!!

Stupid Hillbilly.

 

In response to Bill-806's comment:

   SOFTY gets my vote !!!!!!!!
  

Moonslav hands down. He puts more effort and thought into his posts, with stats to back up his opinions. Although I don't always agree with his assessments, I think he is mostly objective.

Joe B....

  Actually, Moon is the best, smartest baseball mind on the board...... A lot of other good posters too.... Softy, brings the drama that brings action/reaction from the others...... 

notin, hands down.

 

Who in the hell puts themselves on the ballot?

In response to EnchiladaT's comment:

I dont think think gale was serious, B, more of a satire on the yearly thread.  point being, there are many good posters who bring something to the table and adds to the survival of the  forum.

Ha ha ha ha...very amusing, self-parodying rant. 

In response to Softlaw1's comment:

This is the clown BILL voted for!

LMAO

IMHO there are only two posters here who should even be on a ballot for Best Poster of the Year:  Moon and Notin.  I'd vote for Moon but would have no problem with Notin. 

Both do their research and post good, solid facts.  The also pretty much avoid the name calling and insults that drag the board down.  Well, except for when Moon 'eats Softy's lunch' on a regular basis.  That's a dirty job but someone has to do it, and Moon (along with Snake) do an excellent job of it!

Softlaw is a few carrot sticks short of a "lunch."

I'm insulted at the lack of mention.

Since I've won this award for 5 years running....(I stuffed the ballot box, bribed posters, made false promises, lied, cheated...you know , just operating as our chosen leaders in Washington do...)

I'm insulted SpacemanEephus , Hfsoxnut and Alibiike were equally snubbed.

Hfsoxnut gets my vote, because he is the only person alive , that I know of, that knows the songs, albums and lyrics of Deep Purple and Blue Oyster Cult as well as if not better than I do.....and this is quite a feat!!!  ( Even if he does disagree with me on key baseball issues like the whole pitch count nonsense).

In response to moonslav59's comment:

As Bob Newmier would say.......    "AND, WHATS WRONG, WITH THAT"  ???

Moonslav 59 has won this award too many times. Therefore , he has exceeded his term limits and is no longer eligible for this election.  This is not Cuba.  As for Notin , he had to be disqualified for excessive use of the words , " You do realize " in his sarcastic replies to other posters.
