OK folks, HERE IS THE SPREADSHEET! I will fill it out, and you don't have permission to do so, but you can use it to do cool things like see who has been nominated, see who hasn't been seconded, and shitpost in the comments. The "nominated by" column of the Nominees sheet includes the goon who nominated the douchebag nominee, plus a link to their post nominating them. If you attempt to nominate someone who was already nominated, I will instead add you to the "Seconded by" column. I am not exercising editorial control over who can be nominated. What that means is that if I have any doubt at all, I will err on the side of adding your nomination or vote, even if there's a chance you were just trying to be funny or something. So for example, The Kraken asked if Baylor was eligible, and I took that to be a nomination for Baylor. If our beloved dictator Ben Has A Tiny Weenus decides to disqualify a nomination, I will strike out the nomination, but leave it in the sheet for recordkeeping purposes and to ensure the person doing the nominating is permanently branded with their shameful attempt to cheat, or whatever. Finally, as a reminder: people are more likely to second your nomination if you talk a bit about why the person is a douchebag. Many of us do not have photographic memories of all the lovely poo poo douchebags pulled off last year, and even if we do remember, we might not remember perfectly, or we might have the wrong opinion about your favorite douchebag. Also I think it's part of the fun. As of this post we have 30 nominees, but only 13 have been seconded. e. Oh yeah also, ODB and Josh Norman were nominated in one phrase, so I put them in together as a single entry. Also it's funnier that way because presumably they hate each other, and so deserve to be judged as one. Leperflesh fucked around with this message at 03:03 on May 20, 2016 |

Because that was the greatest amount of pear-clutching I'd seen all year. My fear with this is that "White Americans upset with Beyonce" and "White Americans upset at MIzzou" and "White Americans who X" are going to be pretty much all the same people, and let's be honest, if white people can run in aggregate they are going to run away with this poo poo. Still, if they make it is I am probably voting for them at least for the first few rounds.

I would second Ken Starr or Art Briles, but at this point they seem to be less douchey and more coldhearted psychopaths. Instead, I would like to nominate Daniel Figurelli for the following reasons: 1) Being an Aggie 2) Pretending to be a UT fan on twitter and calling recruits racial and homophobic epithets for not committing to Texas 3) Being the only person to know about these accounts and then retweeting them as a way to call UT fans classless Number one should honestly suffice most years, but item 2 and 3 are what push it over the top. ShaggyTexas has a thorough cliff notes version of his antics, and I found another good summary right here for your reading pleasure.

Just a simple lurker here but can one nominate our good twitter friend eatdatpussy445? I mean he is uncomfortable and an Eagles fan so I am just going to assume he is a douche. Spitballing here friends, I am new at this! Also, could you maybe have a posthumous award? Like a special category for long past douches? e: after consideration EDP is probably just a sad brain, so I nominate Drew Brees for that scandal he was in with his pyramid scheme or whatever. Also, Jimmy Johns. TeeMerk fucked around with this message at 06:00 on May 20, 2016 |

Just dumping in case someone hasn't posted them. Kroenke, Spanos, Jones for the whole Chargers/Rams fiasco. Briles for contibuing to turn Baylor into a rapist camp. Penn State Fans for their ambivalence (once again, and recently so) about the fact that Paterno was officially linked to being passive/tolerant about the whole Sandusky situation. JFF JJ Watt for literally trying to get the spotlight back to his work ethic at any possible moment. Patriots fans for actually suing the NFL to get their draft pick back. So much entitlement over such a stupidly small thing. They, of course, also made a lot of conspiracy accusations when the court told them to gently caress off. Vontaze Burfict for... a lot of stuff, but let's just point to the Antonio Brown stuff in the post season. Steve Sarkisian, who I don't want to hate on since he has a problem, but I will because he basically wasted a youbg abd talented team all on his own. Also, whoever the USC AD was (Pat Hayden?) for the Kiffin/Sark/whoever was in the middle of them drama.

TeeMerk posted:Just a simple lurker here but can one nominate our good twitter friend eatdatpussy445? Because you retracted it, I have not entered a nomination for eatdatpussy445. swickles posted:Has the lady who wrote that letter to Cam been nominated already? Yes. I took your question to mean you would second it, but please let me know if you would like to retract your second. Cruel and Unusual posted:Didn't she repent? I thought she was cool now. That would be a good thing to find out, and then use as a no vote if/when this entry comes up for voting. effectual posted:And whoever at nfl or espn who made the decision to kill that concussion study. This is quite vague but I have provisionally added it to the list. If you find out who exactly it is, I can update it, and I will assume that Forever_Peace's second will "stick" unless he says otherwise. Forever_Peace posted:Mostly ESPN, if only for shitcanning all of Grantland through twitter. I added ESPN as a separate nomination from you, on the basis that I think this is a separate issue that you intended to focus on. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Also, I entered Pat Haden as a separate entry from Steve Sarkisian, but if you intended to group them (perhaps as "USC coaching staff"?) that might make sense too.

Just going to chime in before work and say that white people who got upset at beyonce are not eligible. I try to keep this thread not very political, and while white people are notoriously awful as a whole, I feel that this is too far removed from football to be counted. I will make other rulings and edit the spreadsheet into the OP when I get home tomorrow.

Indeed, the woman who wrote the letter to Cam seems to be an ex-douche.  quote:I really appreciate his comments and his respect for my thoughts, and I was impressed with the sensitivity and graciousness with which he spoke. I am sorry I didn’t understand him better until this week. It is clear from his remarks that he recognizes his leadership role, both on and off the field, and that he truly cares about the kids watching him. I respect his comments just as much as he did mine, and I wish him nothing but continued success on the field and in life.

That's hilarious, but honestly I don't think it's much different from giving someone a Hallmark card. Well. It's a little different since he's trying to pass off the words as his own, but it's not like you normally cite your references in a tweet. And in this case the words are explicitly being given for you to re-use, much like with a hallmark card.

And also, remember, the Lord God himself told Russell to date Ciara, but not to do sex, so he could save her. quote:"She was on tour, and I was looking at her in the mirror, and God spoke to me," Wilson told the pastor. "He said, 'I need you to lead her.'
