Competitions Steele Sidebottom nominated for Name of the Year

[PERRIEEEEEE!!!]

Pat Angerer is making a run at Charity Beaver now, He was picked up in the recent NFL draft and hence has a bit of support from Indianapolis Colts fans. Charity/Pat will be tough foes for sure.

Everyone joined the facebook group yet?

god the herald sun is so incompetent

they claim that steele told the NOTY website about his nicknames as a kid

Steele has never even acknolwedged the NOTY website yet or his nomination. The NOTY website quoted an interview with Steele from the collingwood website where he was talking about his unusual name

I hate these guys. Sports journalists/ commentators are fast becoming extinct, I hate the fact that these guys get payed to do what everyone on this website does for free, and they still can't even do a better job at it then anyone here

Join the facebook group: the guys running that have been pretty good at letting me know of the rounds as they happen.

Good to see the heraldsun article proliferating around the place. Crikey had something the day before too.

Yep, their post on May 10 was pretty much entirely aimed at us I reckon.

Our fellow Americans. (And you Australians, too.)

There is no task more solemn than the one passed down to us by our founding fathers....we accept this responsibility, we cherish this task. We vote for the Name of the Year.

And though we are bound by duty to accept the will of the People, we also fear the tyranny of the mob.... Steele Sidebottom had an entire nation -- Australia -- get out the vote in his similarly close victory over beloved No. 1 Spontaneous Gordon.

....we implore the public -- from Ames to Adelaide, from Sioux City to Sydney -- to set aside petty partisanship and choose those names that embody the true spirit of NOTY.

Crazy Yanks don't know what they're dealing with. They fear the mob huh? We'll give them a mob. Steele's got this one wrapped up.

There's a wrapup of the media so far here:

I have a soft spot for Charity Beaver. If it came down to Charity and Steele in the final I would vote Steele, but charity has a special place in my heart.

I'd have to vote for Ms Beaver if they go head to head in the final.

She could beat us all to a pulp on the evidence i've seen. Like this....

It just got mentioned on Game Day on Channel 7!

I saw that, we will need all the press we can get up against Charity in the semis.

Just hoping that there isn't an anti-Pies sentiment from the general Australian community.

nah,most people would realise this is a once in a lifetime chance to put a AFL player on the map

 

[Pie eyed]

This surpasses club loyalties. The oppo posters have been behind it to a man on the main board.

Yeah! Vote early, vote often.

Going to be the toughest contest. The real hurdle. The charity beaver... Get on Steele!

 

[Pie eyed]

Charity Beaver is the Geelong and Saint Kilda of this comp.

If Steele can get in over a such a classic name then he has the whole shooting match sown up I reckon.
I can't see how Nohjay Nimpson or Banana Yaya even made the top 4.

The AFL machine has ground into life and he's jumped to a 61% to 31% lead. He's even leading in 7 of the 52 US states.

Maxwell was on triple m this morning and said the players call Steele Robbo around the club wtf is up with that??

I know how boring of a middle name is Robert? Especially when your furst and last names are so awesome
