I started reading that football thread but good god that's some boring shit that I could not care less about.

I'll go with the standard MCOWNED cause he does it so fucking often and year-after-goddamn-year.

Hands down; dmcowen674.

You are not an economist. You are not an analyst. You are not an expert on anything. You are just some clump of letters & punctuation on the internet that could be deemed as an opinion at best.

Don't fret, I am that as well.

The only difference between us, is that I know my place and I recognize.

These "I TOLD YOU SO" efforts are just retarded. If you guys (it's not just dmcowen674) are THAT good, go write for the major news publications, journals and whatever. Don't think for a second that your soap box antics will amount to anything other than amusement for us when you start stomping up and down on how you "knew" this would happen or how you called it.

Learn some humility, or face being labeled an asshat.

McOWNED lies and needs to be called out on it.

I thought the general rule for the Ownage of the Year nominations/awards was that P&N threads would not count. If we counted P&N threads, McOWNED would win the award every single year. He is a self-ownage machine and too stupid to realize it.

I voted for eits with this in mind.



We should also consider the possibility that he owns himself on purpose, making him a troll.

Dave is a good guy.

He's caught some bad breaks in life that have left him on the edge. I get that and I understand it. People like Newell deciding this thread is a good place to bash Dave into the ground prove just how worthless some people who post here are.

Give the guy a break. Dave has been around longer and done more for this forum than 99% of the mouth breathers that post here.

He may well be and his job thread for the unemployed is a testament of that, but in his gas prediction thread, which his nomination concerns, the ownage title is well-earned.

Oh hell yea. He got owned hard.

Newell has been on a personal attack tear and I won't brush it off. The guy is a little bitch posting mean things on the internet because he mommy didn't love him right.

I once thought Dave had to be a master troll. While I do believe he definitely does have trollish tendencies, I tend to think he really is that big of a moron. If I'm wrong and he is trolling us, well, he should move to Hollywood and act. :D

I attack Dave and will continue to call him out as long as he continues posting lies. You're entitled to your opinion of him, but it is one I don't share.

having a hard time between eits and Texashiker. I mean, eits really put it all out this year, but Texashiker's performance from year to year is hard to deny. TH is my mid-nineties Jeff Gordon.

You just love to hate him, because he's so good at what he does.

This is tough. :hmm:

sorry zin, but you got my vote. the thread isn't 893 pages long and it was nice and simple. not to mention it was fucking hilarious. :D

I liken him to the anarchist420 type of moron in that there is probably some form of mental illness involved. They both believe they are 100% right and the world is a conspiracy out to get them. Dave seems to be able to function more in the real world though.

eh, football player comparisons are very subjective. While I didn't read that entire thread, from what I did read, eits just has a different opinion on potential.

McOwned on the other had made a specific prediction and used countless paraphrased articles to support his prediction. However, were he gets owned is that even in the face of evidence that countered and even contradicted his prediction, he still pressed forward and refused to say he was wrong. His prediction was a miserable failure and many posters provided solid evidence to that fact. Oh, and how did he counter those posters? He simply blocked them. Or in other words, he ignored their counter-arguments and refused to debate the merits of his prediction or his support. He should win in a landslide.

No it's a lot more than that. Eits actually claimed to be the official chiropractor for the Redskins, and official doctor for some of the players. Then after being called on his blatant bullshit then said he just slipped and forgot to put "cheerleaders". Once that happened he pulled his usual crap where he then suddenly realized he was off about everything and copped the apologetic tone that he takes when proven to be lying/misleading as he's done many times before so that he can keep his "nice/good guy" persona that he's cultivated on here in spite of all the times he's literally lied about shit. Also, since people like to focus on all the shit Dave has been wrong about, go look up eits posting history, especially include things like vaccines and doctors in there, both of which he has said quite a bit of crazy shit about.
