Our Second Annual Mythical and Real Awards
by WKRQ, 59

Okay, friends, bloggers, countrymen. It's time for the second annual and of course, mythical Q-Awards, invisible statues of A10 and a few other referees clad in their birthday suits with enlarged whistles stuffed in every orifice.
Herewith the “Q'S”:

THE JOB SEARCH STIMULUS AWARD, shared by George Washington's Karl Hobbs, whose Colonials finished their regular season 4-12 (A10) and 10-18 overall, and by Fordham's Dereck Whittenburg, whose Rams finished 1-15 (A10) 3-25 overall. Both teams missed the league's post-season tournament.

THE CRYBABY AWARD, a two-foot square Columbia blue, weird red and black crying towel (if they can't figure their colors neither can we) to the Dayton Flyers fans, players, and the media who cover them, so they can have something to sob into again this year, lamenting all the injuries, bad calls by referees or classless play by Xavier, whom they haven't beaten in Cincinnati since 1981 (for more click here) (http://www.xavierhoops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9121).

Blowhard Award Sippin' Mick Cronin. For the second year in a row, little Mickey starts running his mouth about NCAA berths and then adds a high elbow shot at the A-10. Immediately after that, his team tanks with horriffic, non-effort losses to ensure some unimportant bid to a non-descript post season "Tournament". Games will be played in a hick town in the middle of a wheat field prairie with am radio coverage only and commentators reading play by play from a teletype because only twice a week bus transportation is available.

Frivolity ensues.

Especially on Lance MucAlister's talk show!
