Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

2010-2011 CC Least Cool Person Tournament: Jeff Goodman vs. The Gnome

JEFF GOODMAN

4839d1295634511-jeff-goodman_medium

Rap Sheet: 

--Passed the one year mark on failing to deliver on the "prize" I rightfully earned in a Twitter contest in November of 2009. 

--Claimed his plan along was, and still is, to "deliver the prize in person."

--Cemented his place in the tournament for a second straight year by making fun of Louisville fans for being excited about the eligibility of Gorgui Dieng. 

--Managed to draw the ever rare cyber-ire of Rick Pitino. 

--Followed crazygameofpoker just to gain a prize born of spite. 

VS.

THE GNOME

Rap Sheet:

--Appeared out-of-nowhere to serve as the talisman for the home football game against South Florida and promptly delivered an overtime loss. 

--Was banished to oblivion forever. 

--Reappeared on DePaul Day 2011 and was the subject of a litany of Chronicloid hate as Louisville struggled to a narrow home victory

--Was again retired, for his own safety. 

 

I think we all know where my vote is going. Cast yours below.

Barely...

and when it comes to DePaul, that counts as a loss

by guyngreen on Jun 3, 2011 10:37 AM EDT up reply actions  

Goodman is more uncool, and should win

But something made me vote for the gnome. It is like it is trying to make Goodman lose. Being banashed twice may have destroyed some of it’s power.

The later is gnome more...

So, yeah, I voted for Goodman.

Goodman

Hands down. No contest.

Can’t vote…damn iPhone

The gnome without question.

Jeff Goodman may suck but he has never been the singular cause of us losing a football game.

Who the Hell is Jeff Goodman

I read the rap sheet, understand we do not like the man, growing increasingly upset that his name resembles John Goodman – who does not roll on Shabbos!

But what does he do? why do we know him?

The gnome is gnot a person...

maybe a bad gnoman, but it’s no Jeff Gnoodman. We could have left it retired but NOOOOOOO, Mike had to bring it back up to the forefront and almost ruin our Depaul Day! Anyone voting for the gnome is voting for Rutherford because Rutherford is the PERSON responsible.

by 4ul4life on Jun 3, 2011 12:06 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Yes, but the point is, the gnome had gno control over its use as game talisman

The responsibility is clearly Rutherford’s.

Considering Mike originally threatened to ban anyone who mentioned the "G" word...

I think I’ve pressed my luck enough. So, no sir.
Why he himself brought back TOWASNBNFTPF to almost ruin our Depaul Day is beyond me.

by 4ul4life on Jun 4, 2011 8:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

OK, I give

What’s TOWASNBNFTPF?

Goodman

Also told LSL in an interview that he did not make it to the new KFC Yum! Center this past season because Louisville was not good enough to watch.

wow

Yes, that is Kyle Kuric

by TheRealSlimShady on Jun 3, 2011 3:16 PM EDT up reply actions  

The gnome’s presence in this poll will cause his own self-destruction. He will lose. I still voted for him though.

Yes, that is Kyle Kuric

Most unpredictable tourney to date

I would have predicted three matches incorrectly.

by Mike Rutherford on Jun 3, 2011 3:29 PM EDT reply actions  

1-5 for me

I had Harper, UCF, Digger, Teague, and the gnome.

I'm batting 1.000 so far

but Jorts may beat me.

I thought this would be

the closest matchup.

Jeff Goodman is trying to put his foot in his mouth, but Gorgui keeps blocking it.

by Cardwayoflife on Jun 3, 2011 4:35 PM EDT reply actions  

Goodman

isn’t even cool enough to deserve a ‘win’ in this contest.

by 97E3LPL on Jun 3, 2011 7:10 PM EDT reply actions   1 recs

This pisses me off.

Everyone giving in to the power of the gnome.
