Best Sports Blog

3 Nov 2008

Nominate your choice for Best Sports Blog.

UPDATE: NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED FOR ALL CATEGORIES. FINALIST WILL BE ANNOUNCED DEC. 29. VOTING BEGINS JAN. 5.

To nominate a blog you need to leave a comment on this entry. Your comment should contain the name of the blog, the main URL for the blog, and (if possible) the URL for a RSS/Atom feed. For example:

Wizbang
http://wizbangblog.com/
http://feeds.wizbangblog.com/Wizbang

Unless you login via one of the supported authentication services (Typekey, WordPress, OpenID, Yahoo, AIM, etc.) your comment will not be published immediately. Unauthenticated comments are placed in a moderation queue. Due to the volume of comments, it may take up to 24 hours for your comment to be approved. Comments from authenticated users will be published immediately.

Every so often our spam fighting service flags an authenticated comment as spam. If put more than 10 URL's in a comment it will set off the junk filter. If your comment doesn't immediately appear that's probably what happened. We review and "unjunk" these comments as we are approving unauthenticated comments. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

Rules And FAQ's

  • You can nominate yourself, don't be shy.
  • The number of nominations a blog receives is irrelevant. One nomination is enough...
  • Rather than add a "me too" nomination for a site you're encouraged to use the "+" icon to indicate your preference for nominees. The "+" ratings are one extra piece of information the finalist selection panel can use to help generate the finalist slates in each category.
  • Given the two previous items, we reserve the right to remove excessive comments (i.e. nominations) for the same site.
  • The nomination period is scheduled to end on Wednesday, November 19, 2008.
  • The nomination period has been extended to Friday, November 21, 2008.
  • Voting for selected finalists is scheduled to begin December 8, 2008. Finalists will be announced several days before voting begins.
  • Read The Nomination FAQ
  • Get Weblog Award logos to post on your site. Link to the nomination index or your favored category
  • Get technical help or ask questions at The Weblog Awards Forum
  • If you are linking to the contest consider using the nomination category archive, as it contains links to all of the nomination posts.

I nominate Bill Zahren's motorsports blog, Pressdog. He combines a lot of good motorsports information w/a good dose of Mindwestern wit and a large chunk of sardonic humor.

I'd like to submit Cozy Beehive (http://cozybeehive.blogspot.com), one of the top and best cycling blogs out there. He talks about bicycle design and engineering mostly, so its a niche that hardly any other cycling blog explores. Very educative site as well!

This will probably piss some off, but too bad.

Does anyone, with very few exceptions, read and follow the rules on the nomination process?

After all.... they are as plain as the "caps lock" key on their keyboard and yet I'd guess only about 30% of the nominations come close to the printed rules.

Sad.... no PATHETIC!
