    Doesn't Manky troll people about Jeter like this all the time?

    And more people in this country watched the Super Bowl. And the USMNT finished in the same place as 2010.

    MAYYYYYYYBE .... Landon Donovan had it been delayed a week. I still tip my hat toward Pop/Spurs -- with a SCIAC bias toward Pop. But no major quibbles with this.

    Moddy thx for sharing a little bit of background on how the
    sausage is made for the SI Man of Year. Really cool.

    Watching Moddy feed a troll is kind of entertaining. :D

    Was there consideration for a Ray Rice choice? He carried the year in a way that no one else did. Or is it an honor & prize, unlike the Time MOY?

    It's an honor and prize.

    No problem, it was interesting to see at least a part of it from this side and I really hope to be more involved. Will share a little more later. Presentation tonight and I somehow got an invite. The winner, Magic Johnson and some others.

    Meatie Pie? I don't think he/she is a troll. At all. Just disagree here.

    Manky? Also don't think of him/her as a troll. Just a blindly obsessed fanboi who may honestly think "Jetes" deserved some consideration.

    You don't think Manky is an act?

    I've wondered and at times I do think that. But no, I just think he's an over-the-top fanboi. I could be way way wrong.

    Do you know who Bumgarner chose as his mentor to speak. Always thought that was an interesting part of event. Jeter had his dad speak and Lebron chose Coach K which I found interesting.

    If Manky is an act, I would stand and applaud the person who does it. Between Saraceno and Jeter, he's usually freaking hilarious.
