McAwards Voting: Most Amusing Poster

These guys have been nominated for the Most Amusing Poster award, but did you know that millions of people go through life every day without a sense of humor? Without levity, these people may go down the wrong path and turn to a life of crime or vacuum cleaner attachment sales. For every vote that's tallied, Grant will donate a dollar to the National Amusement Trust, an organization that helps those who have no sense of humor. Join me and the rest of the nominees to fight nosenseofhumoritis.
Comedy. It's serious business.

This is really hard
I’m leaning towards jponry, but really, all of the nominees are worthy. Tell you what – first one to make me LOL gets my vote.
GO!
..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.

I feel like, given my contributions to the MCC injoke economy, I should finish third.
AT BEST!

Pundants have said that in this election cycle, especially with the selection of Gov. Palin as Senator McCain’s running mate, there is a certain portion of the electorate that wants to feel like they can identify with a portion of the ticket. You see this played up in Gov. Palin and Sen. McCain’s pandering to the dubious demographic of “Joe the Plumber”, et al. While I have problems with these notions and the sad cynicism from which they spring – - because this is a non-partisan sports blog that I check into to escape the news of election, financial strife, and racial divide – - that doesn’t preclude me from making my decision based on those very backward notions of perceived identification with the candidate. So how would I identify with a certain candidate in this question? How can I tell if we are truly on the same page?
Basically, all I do on this site is make dumb jokes, of which 97% (Xanthan has the numbers) fall completely flat. If I get one (non-Lars originated) laugh out of a 1000 post combined gameday, though, I consider myself a (sad and pathetic) winner. (Blog Special Olympics.) But who is laughing at those jokes??? (Other than Lars.) I have found that, in my experience, that although I have made delorean laugh on occasion, jprony has consistently shown that she is the most like me through her LOLs and FTWs and whatnot. And because jprony is the most like me, I will vote for her.
Good night, and good grief.

Y’all make me laugh all the time. It’s hard to pick just one.
So, in the interest of GIRL POWER!, I’ll tip my cap to jponry. I assume, of course, that’s why Natto put her on the ticket, knowing that women will just automatically vote for women.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch

Actually...
Only 25% of precincts have reported, so you still have time to turn it around. I think you need to play the lolcat card before thing gets out of hand.

I should start reminding everyone that the rest of these candidates have ‘Hussein’ for a middle name and pal around local terrorists.
That should score a sure, ethical, win there.

Fantastic, worthy list of people. Though four of you are going to be losers, you’re all winners in my book! You just won’t be winners in the competition.

But it has nothing to do with the competition.

Considering her circumstances,
this vote from TK to me is worth a landslide in any other year.
It is a nomination I will cherish. Here’s smiling at you, kid.

I don’t think there is a strict rule for this. I just went with that since it seemed like a logical way to get a group of the most nominated folks.

Let me just say that if I had been around more this week, I would have said some hilarious crap.

The way I see it, there’s no reason to bring out the stuff that’s actually funny until I’m up for an award.

I think the McCovey Chronicles constitution is pretty clear about this
An election result this close calls for a special two-man runoff election. Or a steel cage match.
Check out The Examined Life. Or don't. Whatever.

Awww man, that means jponry is going to get 40 extra “go out with me” votes from the scorekeeper…
Or possibly delorean.

It would be great if we could see samplings of their postings like they do for the Emmys so I know what I’m voting for. This poll sucks. :P
