          Vote HERE.


          Brock has at least twice as many votes as every other nominee but Matt Zarbo.
          This screams to me that it is a ballot box stuffing contest, and the committee that decides on this award will end up taking that into account.

            right, it shows that some players have devoted passionate fans who go out of their way to support them, and that is a nice intangible of which to take note in a positive way.

              And don't you think that would still be shown if you were only able to vote once during the whole process?

              BTW, I have no intentions of furthering your childish name changing.

                It isn't at all surprising that this is a ballot box stuffing contest. it is somewhat surprising that a school as small as RPI is able to stuff better than some significantly bigger schools. E.g., SUNY Ithaca.

                  We got off a ton of ballots but very few hit the box.

                      Correct, that would be Allen Iverson.

                        I kind of suspect that at the end of the day, each player gets a percentage of the 1/3rd from the online vote.
                        Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

                          That was my interpretation also. That of course implies that we shouldn't just try to win it for BH but keep trying to improve the percentage.

                            I'll contact a medium and ask all my dead relatives to vote for Brock as well.

                                so it's only just now that you are beginning to have the beginnings of a glimmer of awareness of all the torture you've inflicted on the rest of us for so long?

                                We've asked you nicely to consider the effect your childishness has had, and you shrugged it off....some have tried to shame you into behaving in a quasi-civilized manner, and you responded by ridiculing them for having good manners ... some have tried to confront you, and you pretended it was a badge of honor....

                                you should know that, by saying you "have no intention" you have actually revealed exactly the opposite?


                                if this is what it takes to finally get you to change (in this thread at least) then you can count on me to keep doing it until I see further evidence that it works!
