Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Homer poster of the year award

As the season draws to a close in what all of us hopes will be the Rays playing in and winning the World Series, i decided to reflect on this past season on DRB paying close attention to the GDT and it's posts and posters

 

While many know that i am generally a glass half empty type when it comes to my favorite baseball team, 40 years of being an Indian fan might do that, i decided to look at the direct opposite of myself. I'm speaking of the posters who found positives in Matt Garza's last two outings. who have no problem with Carlos Pena's two 0-25+ skids this season and who scoff at Jeff Niemann's rather ugly starts since coming off the DL

 

My nominees for the 'homer of the year poster' go out to (drum roll please) MagicMark, Doug09 and Transplanted

 

While Transplanted does it in a more scientific approach he is every bit the homer the other two are who pretty much tell you they're dressed in pleated skirts and pom poms while watching the game

 

Please feel free to add to or debate any of the nominees

 

Let's have fun with this and Go Rays

This could have been better

The great thing about baseball is that it requires careful observation not simply attendance and it rewards the analytical person while consistently befuddling the superficial.

It has to be Doug09

The tenacity of his homerishness is unrivaled.

This contest really needs to be renamed the "JoeyBW Memorial Homer Poster of the Year"

The caller said the boy, after removing the bulb from its socket, left the building and threw the bulb on the ground. When the bulb broke, the caller said the boy screamed "To be the best, you have to beat the best…"

That's why the poll needs to be named after him. RIP

Unless you're a member of the media

Being a homer is a good thing. Much less insufferable than the alternative.

Precisely

If you can’t put on rose-colored glasses once in a while, there would be no point in watching spring training, following minor league players, charting magic numbers, etc.
