Well, Joey Harrington better pull through, because I would hate to think that a 295 message thread about him was wasted. wink
Of course, the digressions into One Day at a Time and Blossom may not help him. . .

I think you mean Christiano Ronaldo since Nemov is running against Drew Brees...and my door is locked.

Go Joey Go!
Bobby, isn't your boy Despatie? You better campaign hard for him because he is in a tougher than expected fight with Van Koeverden in the Battle of the Canadians.

My water guy Andy Grant didn't get in.

I voted for Van Koeverden.

Illini, maybe you need to start posting more pictures of your husband Brees because I really didn't expect Nemov to be such a tough opponent!

I voted for Joey just to make MDB happy! I am one of the few who probably won't vote for Despatie, his eyebrows really scare me eek!
I also want to give a big shout out to MDB for putting this together, I imagine it took a nice chunk of time.

I voted for Joey, hands down! I also voted for Alexi. And Javy. This is fun!!!!
I'm stunned that Ljundberg isn't doing better ... he's so hot. And why anyone would think Kyle Kover is attractive is beyond me. But I guess that's why we're having the competition!
Go Javy! Go Marat!

Wow, this has got to be the toughest regional round! So many hotties to choose from, and some awesome darkhorses in this round.
Adam Van Koeverden could pull off the upset here. And who'd a thunk it, against Despatie of all people?
Tommy Skipper is my favorite of the bunch, but I know he's not everyone's cup of tea, with that smooth, muscular bod. Still, I think he makes it to the Elite Eight.

Awwwww, thanks buddy! It did take some time, but it was fun.
Frankly, I am surprised that Despatie isn't cleaning house with Adam. From the amount of posts and comments about Despatie in previous threads, I thought he was a shoo in.
And I just want to say Thank you to the person who voted for Dave Mirra. It would have been embarassing to get Zero votes!

Illini, your pics must be working because Brees has now taken a 13-11 lead over Nemov.
Despatie is still trailing.

Interesting results so far.
James Blake is still within striking distance of Pujols (20 - 18)
Nemov has retaken the lead over Brees (20-18) in one of the hottest contest of the day.
Korver is hanging on to his lead over a tough Zimmerman (21 -17 )
And the Despatie fan club must have arrived as he has stretched out a 23 - 15 lead over Van Koeverden after trailing for most of the day.

I agree -- shout out to MDB. Just to set up all of those pages of photos in Yahoo had to take a while. If I were doing that I'd have no time to post.

I could not have agreed more. And that smile of his. He has the nicest teeth.
Why did you put Albert Pujols against James Blake? That was as hard as an SAT question, or was that just me?

Polls close at 11:59pm tonight for the Eat Region 1st round. Looks like there are only two match-ups left to be decided.
Drew Brees continues to trail Alexi Nemov by two vote 28-26 and Kyle Korver continues to hold off John Zimmerman by the same 28 - 26 count.
If you haven't voted, join in on the fun. Invite your friends to join in. It would be nice to reach 75 - 100 voters. Don't let your man down!

Cool, we've had 66 voters so far. That's a record. I think last time the most we ever had was 40-something voters.
I hope we end up with an odd number of voters so we don't have any ties...like we currently have with Kyle Korver and John Zimmerman who are tied at 33!

Mar 16 2005, 03:46 PM
I simply don't understand how Brees and his beautiful, heavenly butt could be "behind" by two. Come on people, his ass is a sculpture of perfection itself. This travesty should not be allowed to pass!

71 voters so far & there are still some awfully close contests: Pujols and Blake are much tighter than I would have thought, Brees and Nemov remain locked in a battle, and JKorver and Zimmerman looks to go down to the wire.
Has CNN or Fox News called a winner in this race yet?

We're up to 73 voters! A little more than 4-1/2 hours to go before the polls close and three of the match-ups are separated by one vote! Will YOU be the deciding vote?
Looks like three of the match-ups are going to come down to the wire.
Current standings: 37-36
Pujols leading Blake
Nemov leading Brees
Korver leading Zimmerman
Nice & tight, just the way I like it!

MDB- I have no idea of how you are doing both this and the CHA CHA CHA reports, guy.
Your dedication and energy to both areas is wonderful and exhausting (in a good way).
I am hoping things stay nice and tight for a while... I think the rugby player is a bit of a darkhorse in the regional!!

The Midwest region will be released tomorrow. Look for it!
