Is there a limit to how many awards we can give to a single poster?

I appreciate the recognition, JDR, but I think I've spent too little time on here when compared with other guys to be the MVP.

Im not sure what the HornyBee Award is either.

lol. I like the guy and all, but his post about Hairston at times were outrageous. I think he may have been the one to call him James Harden like, and say hes a future superstar or something.

That will get you those awards.

Edit: Also said he would trade for Felton to perhaps start?

Lol. Gotta love the guy.

After much thought and deliberation, here are my awards.

MVP: Liver_Pooty - LP deserves this award for this season. He pretty much lives on the board 24/7 and never misses a game thread. LP makes me laugh, tells great stories, I usually agree with his views on the team. I like that LP will pretty much tell anyone here when they are being a jerk, but then turn around 5 minutes later with a virtual high five. Honorable mention: LamarMatic7. What is not to love about Lamar.

Rookie of the Year: HornetsMania - HM has been a breath of fresh air this year. He has a great knowledge of the game, knows his Hornets history and writes in a manner that is very easy to read, while at the same time getting all major points across. Keep it up.

Mod of the Year: JDR720 - JDR is no doubt the mod of the year and I would have listed him as MVP as well, but I figured I wouldn't give that honor to a mod. JDR has kept this board going when the other mods weren't around as much.

Trader Joe: BobsBuddy - he makes us all laugh, whether intentional or not, its still good fun.

Gamethread Heros: LP and JDR, honorable mention to Catch20two

Capologist: BlackoutBuzz - its his award until he retires

Avatar: Lamar - appeals to my love of 80s/90s NBA. Honorable metion - Sachmo

Sig: LP - FarmersOnly.com LOL

Insightful: Lamar - He crushes it. Honorable mention: HornetsMania, EwingSweatsALot

Divisive: Catch20two - nobody dividends a game thread like Catch

Future Mod - Lamar

Homer: UConn Gang (you know who you are) - Nobody was bigger homers this year than the core group of guys with the UConn symbols under their names when it came to all things Kemba. Honorable mention: UNCNYC.

Pic and Gif Master: JDR. Honorable mention: Sachmo, BrotherDave

Storyteller: LP - you have to love that LP opens up his life to everyone, even the details that nobody would ever dare to tell anyone else. Honorable mention: MasterIchiro

Bipolar: Catch - He gets this award for his end of the year flip flopping sarcastic posts, where were borderline trolling, but whatever.

Funniest: LP. If you don't believe me, sign up for his twitter feed. You won't be disappointed. Honorable mention: Sachmo, BrotherDave, W_Hamilton

Most Annoying: jdm & YosemiteBen - I am giving this award as a duo. These two guys on their own aren't annoying, but when they get to arguing (which is often), they can ruin a thread quicker than anyone. Their arguing explains why they are my votes for most negative and positive, by nature, they just don't agree because they see the world differently.

Negative: jdm

Postive: Yosemite

Drink and Post: LP

Hornybee: LP & MasterIchiro. Honorable mention to SnidleyFC, Sachmo

Want to meet: Bigslam - It will happen one day soon.

and here is a category I added...

Poster I wish would post more: Snidley, vorbis, amcoolio, EwingSweatsALot, James Gatz, Bassman, MPM, RobotRock, Swedd, amateur wannabe, Bizz, Logander, Tupik, Marino, freakonOmics, Chabber, mattcampbell... and all the rest of you great posters who lurk way too much and post way too little.

I'm not in the prospect or trade threads all that often, but I voted on the stuff I knew.

MVP: Lamar
Best Mod: Fatlever
Best Gamethread poster: Liver Pooty (good in both games where the action is tight and in the blowouts when we get random anecdotes that salvage the evening)
Best Cap Expert: BlackOutBuzz (by a country mile, great stuff dude, always appreciate it)
Best Signature: Sachmo
Most Insightful Poster: Lamar
Most Divisive Poster: MasterIchiro
Most Likely to Get Banned: catch20two
Most Likely to Become a Future Mod: Lamar
Biggest Homer: The Jeremy Lamb Truthers (and I must admit the episode where we thought Lamb was coming our way via trade, then we realized he was not coming, was one of the most entertaining threads this year)
Best Storyteller: Liver_Pooty
Biggest Troll: catch20two
Most Bipolar Poster: Liver_Pooty
Mr.Negativity: We've all been there this season, understandably.
Mr.Positivity: yosemiteben
Most Likely to Drink and Post Award: Liver_Pooty
The HornyBee Award: Liver_Pooty
Poster you would love to meet in person and watch a game with:
Poster you would like to meet and punch in the testicles: Nobody on the board, but sometimes Cliff and always Bonnell.
