NC's Best Post Ever

TPC is another story. Long ago, about 7 or 8 years ago, he traded in his knowledgable football reputation for his chance at fame, celebrity, popularity and entertainment value. HE SOLD OUT. And he made the forum much more enjoyable with his totally ghey lists of nothing important, his incredible fencesitting that gets everyone fighting without himself being in the fray, he has aligned himself with key personalities of all walks of the internet. In a nutshell, he's most responsible, more than any other single poster, in making this one of the most whacked out, humorous, effed up places in the world (real or fictitious). He deserves major props and a first ballot vote.
