Competitions Steele Sidebottom nominated for Name of the Year

[coldpieswarmbeer]

not sure who knows about this but theres a hilarious annual competition for name of the year (NOTY).. and this year our very own steele sidebottom is in the running haha

here's the blog post
http://nameoftheyear.blogspot.com/

"WHO IS VOTING FOR STEELE SIDEBOTTOM?!?!" asks NOTY commenter Whit Perkins.

We'll tell you who. Australia.

The 19-year-old midfielder with the Collingwood Magpies of the Australian Football League currently has 50 percent of the vote in Part 2 of this regional. He's also getting a lot of buzz Down Under. Some Aussie has even started a Facebook page for his candidacy. Oy oy oy.

People, we could have another Spaceman Africa situation here. And we don't mean a name-changer; we mean a worldwide get-out-the-vote drive.

It's on, Australia. It is so on.

Not only are our Australian friends pimping for their boy, Dragonwagon Regional No. 4 seed Steele Sidebottom, they're pimping for NOTY, too.

Adelaide blogger Upshake -- who has subtitled his site in honor of the "Man of Steele" -- has started a NOTY Twitter feed. You can follow the action @NOTYresults. If you Tweet about the tournament, make sure to use the hashtag #noty.

And don't forget to become a fan of Name of the Year on Facebook. We're at 571 and counting.

Speaking of results, No. 1 seed Spontaneous Gordon advances easily in the first quadrant of the Dragonwagon with 54 percent of the vote. Balloting continues in the the other three contests below. Scroll and vote now.

and just for amusement here are the other names in contention.

A shame these two have to meet so early on.

51% to 49% against Steele atm.

 

[WakeUpPies]

[Blur]

Sorry Steele... Spontaneous Gordon is too good to go against.

 

[DaVe86]

We can seriously influence this comp. Get behind Steele. The opposition has majority support in the US but our small group has got Steele a handy lead. Keep the votes coming people.

 

[handy point]

Both Colorado and Iowa are leaning toward Sidey.

 

[DWil6]

I know. How funny is that. Must be some ex pats. There are so few votes, that our impact is massive.

 

[handy point]

and yet I see that not all of NSW is voting for Steele.

 

[mattys123]

Steele out to a 64% to 36% lead, bring it home steel, Elite 8, here we come.

 

[half_back_flank]

Just voted. Steele Sidebottom from Wang lol.

 

[conodie05]

I think the entire Bigfooty community needs to know about this. This is about national pride, regardless of you club alleigence.

Do it for Australia Steele!

 

[WakeUpPies]

Welcome back!

Thanks , i realized Uni just isn't fun without Bigfooty.

 

[Pie eyed]

A big comeback from Spontaneous Gordon (contrived name for sure) so get in and vote for Sidey (real name).

We used to have a sand merchant here in Canberra named Hans Nees.
Would have to be a top 16 name I reckon.

 

[coldpieswarmbeer]
