Doing a google search of "tank mcnamara sports jerk of the year" brings up a MH thread on page 3. :)

I think I'd have to vote for Bill Belichick, just for the way he acted after the Super Bowl. That doesn't even count the spying thing.

Belichick should be a shoo-in to win this award.

He is a jerk.

He is a cheater. :smt009

And his team LOST.

Ha Ha Ha.

[BayFly]

Belichick for sure

[SoMissTV]

I nominate whoever decided to fire Jeff Bower.

Jerk.

[firefly]

I nominate Michael Vick, Murderer of Dogs!!!:smt118

[Baloo]

I agree with all of those nominations!

[Conveyor Belt]

Jerk.

I want to give that guy a medal!

Somehow, I knew you were one of 'those people'. :smt023

[CircusRide]

I nominate Congress. They're wasting taxpayer money on steriod scandals while our economy goes to hell in a hand basket.

[hendrixfreak70]

I nominate myself. I didn't get drafted by the Chicago Bears in 2007. Still hoping they draft me this go round. I am a stellar athlete who only wants a chance to prove myself.

I don't understand why people are so pissed at him. The guy got a better job, can't fault him for that. People leave teams all the time. We think it's okay for a team to fire a coach under contract, so why can't the coach do the same thing?

But that story wasn't even on my radar when it happened so I'm not real sure. Apparently he pissed off enough people to get the vote this year, though.

I know that one of the things that WVU was mad about was him taking some sort of files with him when he left. WVU raised hell about it, and RR said the school was supposed to have duplicate files of everything he took. The school then said "oh, yeah" and the whole complaint was dropped, but not before sports talk radio bagged the guy for "stealing" the files.

Don't get me wrong, I don't care about this dude at all. The whole thing is interesting, though.

And you are right, he has definitely pissed off A LOT of people.

I nominated Tom Brady for A) being a snob, and B) the way he snubbed Eli when they took the field on Super Bowl Sunday. (You know, the day he got his ass handed to him. By Eli.)
