Final call:Show Pony Award nominations
Hi all,
Just a reminder, nominations for the 2006 Conroy's Double Smoked Bacon Basketball South Australia Show Pony Awards close on November 6.
Matt Ryan is tipped as favourite for the prestigious award this year, with odds now of 2:1 with TAB sportsbet.
The award would cap off another stellar year for Mr Ryan, who also won the 2006 Flinders University Bachelor of Education Graduation Ball "Sgt Tom Croydon Award" for being the most Arrogant and Offensive.
Mr Ryan also won the Conroys awards in 2002, 2004 and 2005.
Other nominations this year include winner 2003 and runner up 2005, Luke Smith, currently holding odds of 3:1.
Other nominations posted on Hoops already include John Lawrence and Mark Frost.
Nominations for the Rising Stars Show Pony Award have been scrapped after it was found that Antrigg Jackman became peckish ate the other contestants. (Mr Jackman is disqualified as per competition rule 12.2 - "No competitor may eat another to gain an unfair advantage...")
Also in the main mix; Geoff "Mumbles - Where are the girls on Hanson Road?" Stanley has also been scrapped from the list after clause 23.8 in the competition rules stated that "nominees were requierd to have teeth".
All nominations must be posted on Hoops. A special ceremony will be held at 7pm on November 19 at Marion with special guest speaker John Lawrence.
Self nominations are allowed, and it is not limited to referees.
Regards,
Rog.
PS. Luke Smith, i did some digging about your lost bacon from the other year.
Conroy's said some young lady picked it up 2 years ago after the award was announced. Any one of your lady friends put on weight lately?
