I will vote everyday.

Without him we would be winless. Well, we might have beaten the freaks from Lames.

I’ve voted 3 times today.

Yahoo Sports/Rivals.com

also has a voting page. Don’t know if it counts toward anything. Right now McCoy is way ahead, Bradford second with 19% and Shonn third.

Hey, thanks

I didn’t know you could vote yet.

I voted for Clark. ;)

by ReadingRambler on Oct 21, 2008 9:34 PM CDT reply actions  

Shonn's already in 3rd place

And very close to overtaking Bradford for 2nd.

Note, of course, that this is all entirely inconsequential, but fun all the same.

Odd

He’s in ~10th place on the rankings I see. But closing fast!

You are more retarded than the 100 meter stagger at the Special Olympics

You might notice that my comment was a reply, and in that comment there was a link to a poll. You might want to click that poll and see what I might be talking about. You might have a giant forehead and a predilection toward letting your giant tongue hang out of your mouth and wearing a helmet at all times.

As for the main poll, you were close, Greene is barely in 9th place, and a long way away from the Top 8. This gap should close over the next few weeks.

Greene's in second after my vote

What do I win for pushing him over Bradford?

GOD DAMN SNLEY

Greene is now back in 3rd by almost 3.0%. I take back my J Leman.

Why should

“all Arabs” be worried?

Relax, it's a joke

Don't worry

I am relaxed. A little vexed that I didn’t post that as a reply though. I’ll get it right this time.

Good question

J Leman is not an indiscriminate killer. Not when he can smell evil.

Shonn Greene for Heisman

Slowing down -> Halted

I’ll assume the voting slowed down because of all the people who just sit at their computer at work all day weren’t stuffing the ballot box. Consider this “1 NEW” comment a “bump” to vote again.

I do have more rhymes than Jamaica got mangos.

He's still climbing

keep it up. He’s only 4% away from being top 3.

They cut down the ballot

to 9 and a write in. They didn’t put Greene as one of the nine even though he’s 6th in the voting

Same with Chase Daniel. He was 5th in voting but is not on the list either.

by Duez I say on Nov 3, 2008 2:53 PM CST up reply actions  

While I think Greene deserves to be on that ballot

It’s hard to make an argument for him to be on there above any of the 9 they put on there. I didn’t take time to set up a spreadsheet comparing stats and such, but I think the only one we could make a legitimate argument to be replaced with Greene is Maclin, and that’s based on stats. I think we can all agree that Maclin is a very high level playmaker, but I don’t believe his stats this year have been jaw-dropping (upon further research [me clicking on his name], he has 63 rec 831 yds 7 TDs and less impressive return/rushing stats than last year).
