    OK, guys, I'm bored. The transfer rumors are nonexistent right now, and the "Roberto Carlos to Chelsea" thread on the Chelsea board has died a painful death (although I did find out what SAF did to ZANI to "piss him off")

    Anyway, I think we need something to amuse ourselves, so I am suggesting some "BigSoccer Arsenal Board" Awards. Sort of like the "Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievment in the Field of Excellence", just not as prestigious.

    Anyway, we need some categories, and then we can open the voting. The few that came to mind were:

    "Poster of the Year (Actual Knowledge Division)"
    "Poster of the Year (Made Us Laugh Division)"
    "Troll of the Year who Pissed Us Off"
    "Troll of the Year Who's Club Should Be Ashamed"
    "Best New Poster (Under 500 Posts)"
    "Best Poster from Another Forum (Non-Troll)"

    Anyway, this may be the dumbest thing ever, or you guys may dig it. Whatever. Just throw up some suggestions for categories and then, if it's not ridiculous, we'll vote and crown some winners. They'll get, I don't know, a ton of rep or something. For Trolls we'll bad rep the hell out of them.

    And the winners can put them in their sig along with the year (I'm guessing this will be held anually?)

    Sure, why not. I guess we could give them their own stickied thread, too, just so they can give their acceptance speech and pass judgement on us peons who are honored to read their posts, even the trolss.

    Have you not gotten the tapes yet? I sent those 2 weeks ago! I'll call the Post Office today and find out what we can do about tracking them down.

    I would think that he would be a unanimous choice for "Troll Who's Club Should Be Ashamed"

    Yes they do, phishy, yes they do.

    As it seems everyone apparently thinks we should do this to kill some time, how about some category suggestions? Anything I missed that we should add?

    And should Clanblue or nicephoras win an award, will they wear it in their sig with pride?

    I think we should have a category just for "ZANI Quote of the Year". I'm sure someone has to have kept a list.

    There are quite a few. Unfortunately, most of them aren't in our forum.

    Ahh, but which club would that be? Would we make the announcement on the ManU board, or on the Chelsea board? Or just every board except the Arse board.

    But he is our spiritual leader, don't you know.

    BTW, jegerpenge, love the sig, but I would have gone with "Shake-zula, the mic rula"

    How can you start this crap and when Mr Rulez comes you cancel his thread.
    He was off the hook. I couldn't top that one.
    This is what I was trying to tell you folks. If you all gonna be all serious around here . It won't be fun. Arsenal players play other teams. They don't play each other. So let some body come here to play the opposition.
