2009 Talksox award nominees thread
Hello all,
Dipre and I got to talking and thought it be a good idea to make this thread since we are getting into the late stages of the year. Here we are hoping to get "Post of the Year", "Poster of the Year", maybe a "Rookie of the year" type of nominations.
If you see a post you think it's "POTY" worthy, please post it in here.

Linear Weights would be like tits, ass, face, demeanor, and what her mother looks like (a good approximation of what she'll look like in 25 years).
Now, with BA, she could be a real winner, but fat chicks have big hooters too, so it doesn't tell you as much as the others. With OBP, you'd at least know if the nice rack was on well proportioned body.
Does this help?

We also need catchphrase of the year, fight of the year, most improved poster, most biased fan (Jacko with the early edge) and most controversial poster.

If that's her, she must be able to suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.
Either that or Phillips must be into some kinky Quasimodo look alike role playing type stuff.
