The candidates for SBF's Inaugural Hall of Fame class

SportsbyFletch has done the Fletcher Globes for a few years now and last year we award Aaron Sorkin with a Lifetime achievement award. I've decided to go one step further and create the SBF Hall of Fame. Back before I became a BIG-TIME sports writer (wink), SBF used to also talk about pop culture, not just sports. Well, in 2011 I am going to try and venture back into the pop culture realm. This is a start. I have put together a LONG list on nominees on which my readers (OK, fine, Roomie, Sleazy P, JCole and Wifey)can vote on to determine who makes the first class. The voting ends after Christmas and we'll announce the inaugural class a few days before the New Year. I'll describe some of the candidates; others, just use your imagination. The class will be between 6-8 people/entities big, so pick wisely.

With no further ado....

The OC. The show/cast/etc. Love this show. Period
Eric Taylor. Coach from the Dillon Panthers on FNL
Riggins. Big bad ass from FNL
Lorelei and Rory Gilmore. Has there EVER been a hotter mother/daughter combo?
Josh Schwartz. He gave us The OC AND Gossip Girl
Katy Perry. She's hot because she kissed a girl and apparently liked it.
Joel McHale. From the Soup. This guy is funny. I saw his standup.
Jo Koy. The panelist from Chelsea Lately is funnier than McHale.
Alton from the RW/RR Challenges. HE MOVED A TRUCK BY HIMSELF!
Jeff Probst. His smart-ass play-by-play at the Survivor challenges makes me want to try out for the show.
Evan from RW/RR Challenges. Seriously dominating because he is an athlete but he OWNS the politics.
Holly Rowe. Did you see the ESPN sideline reporter mow down that turkey leg?
Volcheck from The OC. He did want EVERY VIEWER wished they could: he killed Marissa.
Blake Lively. From Gossip Girl. If only she didn't talk out of the side of her mouth.
Greg House, MD. He's an A-Hole, but he'll save your life after he nearly kills you four times!
Justin Timberlake. The guy is musically talented but could be the best SNL host EVER
Dave Matthews Band. Who DOESN'T like this guy's music?
Pauley D. Because he hasn't sold out like The Situation....yet.
Michael Buble and Jon Hamm. You're telling me you wouldn't eat at Hamm & Buble?
Taylor Townsend. She single-handedly made that final season of The OC watchable. You go Autumn Reeser!
Lucy Camden's ugly mask. She worked that thing for how many years before 7th Heaven told her to finally take it off.
Matt's Bride from 7th Heaven.
Nicky Fisk. The HAIR!
Cat Deeley. That you joogeez
Matt Diaz. The Braves outfielder took out an idiot from Philly that ran onto the field.
Reunion. I want to know who the killer was!
teriyaki sauce. that stuff is GOOD.
bacon. Do i need to explain this?
Labor Day weekend. The START of college football
Thanksgiving holiday. The BEST holiday of the year.
Fun Dip. The powder candy

So there are the candidates. If you feel I've missed something, write it in, but vote on those and we'll have the first class later this month.

Okay, here are my nominations. Although I must admit that due to my age and gender, I have no idea who some of these people are.

Bacon- world's greatest condiment.

Labor Day weekend- Usually marks the beginning of UGA's annual season of mediocrity, but what can I say...I love it!

DJ Pauley D- Put's the "P" in MVP. T-shirt time!

Holly Rowe- Move over Kobayashi, this girl can eat.

Thanksgiving- Turkey,dressing, and the annual beatdown of the Tri Lambs... enough said.

Dave Matthews Band- Those guys can really fling poo!

Honorable mention:
Justin Timberlake- kudos for SNL, but not far enough removed from N'SYNC, maybe next year.


That's it. Oh yeah, 45-42, suck it!

We regret the omission of Giada. And her boobs.

In regards to Chick-fil-A sauce, Zaxby's sauce or Hidden Valley Ranch would make it before CFA sauce.

But thanks for Giada. If she doesn't make it in 2010, she'll be a shoo-in in 2011.

The Body said...

Shouldn't Olivia Wilde be getting some love OC love too? I mean yeah it was brief but...quality over quantity.

Has Marissa Cooper worked since? BTW. Autumn Reeser was fantastic on entourage too.

1 more write in. Kate Beckinsale

Sleazy P said...

Bacon....First Ballot Hall of Famer

The OC.

Joel McCale

Pauly D most definately.

Write in, Kate Beckinsale once again just for necessity. If you need more from the portfolio I think Esquire Mag has you covered.

Pleased to see Giada in there, best forehead in TV.

also Daniel Tosh
