Why someone like Miguel whose many many hours of research and effort produces the best salary cap pages goes unnoticed for the FOTY befuddles me. Miguel owns seasons tickets and has repeatedly donated those tix to benefit a food pantry for those in need. What's better than that?

And no, I am not related and I have never had sex with Miguel.

I agree he is also an extremely humble person, not unlike those who continue to self promote themselves for personal gain.. I do not get understand how anyone can begrudge this woman and feel they are more deserving.. it is what it is.

What? That Colts troll!

(Seriously, I nominated Miguel last year but now, having met him, I don't believe that he could give (to quote) a rat's patootie about this. Happy New Year to you Miguel -- and to all Pats fans!)

I have heard good things about NEM from guys who have met him in real life. NEM, you say plenty of things that I disagree with but I will say a couple of things about you. You are a true Patriots fan, you are passionate, knowledgeable and are by all accounts a great host.

Good luck on winning the award some time.

Good post PWP ... Fan Of The Year is an award that really self promotes the Patriots ... it's a popularity contest that makes the team look good ... it really has nothing ... zilch ... nada .... with being the best fan.

Now I'm thinking Fred Smerlas should have been fan of the year ... by selling his tickets at a high price he ensured that many non season ticket holding fans would be able to root for the team they love ... Fred Smerlas ... another
snubbed FOTY contestant.

NEM it doesn't count when you only have once nomination and it came from you.

What have you been drinking lately? Whatever it is keep on drinking it because you have hit another home run post.

I have never met Miguel. I first came across his work when he had his draft pages,which lead me to his salary cap pages,which lead me to this forum. All I can go by is his work and his post here. I really don't think he is shallow enough to care about getting FOY honors, although he certainly deserves it.

Lets hope that the Patriots honor his work in some way real soon. Maybe they have and we willnever know about it because Idoubt if he would ever bring it up.

And, the sports media in this area should honor him in some way. We all know that they use his work to report their work.

BTW, his draft pages were the best on the internet. What a task that must have been.

Congratulations to Karen Hourigan.

Sorry that this thread had to be hijacked by NEM.
