It's time to officially kick off the 2012 Matty Award Nominations. These posts will show up over the next few days, allowing you to nominate whomever you feel deserves the listed awards.
All you have to do is list the award, and the person (or people) you feel should be in consideration for that award. And, since there were no Matty awards last year, previous winners will be allowed to win the award this year (only stipulation is, OFF4L can't win the award named for him - sorry Griffin).
Remember - this is not the vote. This is the nomination.
As always NO NOMINATING YOURSELF AND NO CAMPAIGNING ANYWHERE ON THE SITE!!!!!

2008-2009: Fooch (Niners Nation)

Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
For the Chad Pennington I nominate SMP!

daytonadolfan - February 15, 2012

fin4three5yrs - February 15, 2012

BSerious72 - February 16, 2012

If SMP doesn’t win the award this year…. I’ll be disappointed…
Fr8Train - February 17, 2012
I agree with that.
texascowpunk - February 23, 2012
Agree
21Dave - February 19, 2012
Kdog for the Mandich as thats a no-brainer.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
thanks old man!
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
These kids today, no respect.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
just love messing around with ya tex...I'll stop
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
but I did say thanks...that is respectable
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
Hey... you're young.
You’re easily influenced by the older generation like TCP. Blame him for your lack of respect!
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
that's a damn good point
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
I did not raise him. If I had he would know better.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
sorry dad
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
LOL
That goes for the quote of the year nomination. Along with Dave21’s nomination for best nickname of Texy-Pooh!
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Actually I think his best is the one he gave to Keith-6 strings. Also he has a funny one for Nicky
and he calls Alpha Perv man or something along those lines.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
And yet the only nickname I get is "Jackass" which came from the wife...
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
And thats when shes being nice?
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
She's never nice...
One of these days she’s going to check up on here and really think that I believe she’s mean. I need to stop talking negative about her so she
doesn’t think I don’t love herdoesn’t beat my ass.Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Crossout fail...
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
I used to remember a Dragon like that "Dirty Dragon" but again Xwife!
wild zion beaver - February 20, 2012

Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012

texascowpunk - February 15, 2012

Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Flat and crispy... just like his women... lol
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012

Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Kdog,Texy-Pooh and OFF4L for his own award!!!
21Dave - February 18, 2012
Its been a LONNNNGG time since I posted those pics lol
Ben Bacon - February 15, 2012
It is not forgotten.
texascowpunk - February 16, 2012
But they can still be nominated!
Finhead83 - February 16, 2012
And re-posted?
texascowpunk - February 16, 2012
Why not?
Finhead83 - February 16, 2012
Yeah why not?
texascowpunk - February 16, 2012
I can of many
MANY reasons why the hell not
Ben Bacon - February 18, 2012

dolfinfan34 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
... who ARE you?
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
Oh hell. And yes thats who I went with. Hands down!
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
you can't go wrong with him.
dolfinfan34 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
No. He's one of the ones that I wish we could convert to being a Phins fan.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
I agree, lol
Agent J 78 - February 15, 2012
Ok.
Pennington award to Bro Namath.
News flash to Kdog.
Ohio picture award….I don’t know…who posts alot of pictures? How about Alpha, he gets my nomination.
civwarbuff - February 15, 2012
Disturbing pics count?
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
I don't see any rules that are excluded...
Which makes me nominate you, TCP, for all of the CKC pictures of the hotties. Mila Kunis wins in my book!
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
LOL Those are not disturbing and thanks.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
lol
jdelsandro - February 16, 2012
If that was the case.. you'd have a slam dunk win...
Mr turtle, frogs and monkeys…..
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
lol
RIBBIT! Hopefully you’re not thinking of that monkey video with the frog making those turtle noises…
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
no way bro namath...
dude was one of the ones who banned me over at gang green
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
lol
I actually have no qualms with him. If you get into a rough and tumble with other posters there, it’s only natural he’ll side with the usual visitors of the site. I don’t believe I’ve ever had any problems with him and I think he’s the one that stood up for me when some of their people would instantly call me a troll.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
not me....
seriously… all i did was wish us a good game and a chance to knock them out of the playoffs. I didnt say they suck or ny sucks or anything bad… just some harmeless banter.
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
lol. No idea on that one, but that's between you two.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Email me!
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
do it now!
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
Sent.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
... you two having a smoke later?
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
LOL
It’s a good thing TCP doesn’t need to speak to communicate with the Phinsider…
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
LOL The funny thing is I have never smoked a cigarette in my life. Nasty shit. Oh and check your email.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Yeah, no to Namath, he can't even troll maturely
He tried to insult me by saying my name was pronounced “anus,” not exactly the best diplomat is he? Sorry but he Is a jets fan through and through, but there are a few other jets fans that deserve it, like OldJetsFan (or whatever his name was)
AnishB15 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
I really don't even remember Bro coming over here...
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Well, it was over there
Some guy had made a post saying that he was happy our pass rusher Jake long, who is the brother of St. Louis pass rusher Chris long, wouldn’t be attacking their RG Wayne hunter (who happens to play RT in real life), and terrorizing mark Sanchez. I said that i was happy for their sake that they weren’t all as stupid as the guy who made that post. And bro Namath banned that guy the next day too, so it wasn’t like I wa dissing a big contributer on the site.
AnishB15 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
I remember that one... ROFL.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
He came over the week prior to the Monday Night game in Week 6.
He made an ask GGN post which opened up an awesome discussion. I think Texas took it down. The subtitle was “Hello fellow dufferers of AFC East mediocrity” lol.
civwarbuff - February 15, 2012
*sufferers not "dufferers"
civwarbuff - February 15, 2012
There is a reason for that but we wont get in to it here.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Okay.
civwarbuff - February 15, 2012
omg I never laughed so hard before...that was a great article
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
well
sanchize6 is back. he was unbanned a day or 2 later. we didn’t want those posts to stop…
rexthejet - February 18, 2012
I'm would nominate Colt_Monger for the CP10 award
Phinsphana - February 15, 2012
second
Hollywood Dolfan - February 15, 2012
he just showed up for two sessions like a week ago.
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
True but his post were rather informative and he even dealt with some other fan (not one of us) calling him a troll in a clasy manor. Just my reasoning. And SMP was already a nominee
Hollywood Dolfan - February 15, 2012
We do need some competition for the nominees...
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
then i nominate.....
that dude from denver… what was his name…
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
Billy
Bronco Billy….
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
that wasnt it
it was like brantner, but not…
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
bradfather?
Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
Yeah, him
AnishB15 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
Yeah, I remember who your talking about
Ir was similar to brantner but I couldn’t remember the name
AnishB15 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
hmm..
where is the award for the person that pisses everyone off bc they thought a story was pointless! i would win! lmao jk
finsfan1331 - February 15, 2012
If it was for the person that just pisses people off, I'd probably get that one lol.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
haha
i have noticed a little of that from what i read..lol
finsfan1331 - February 15, 2012
lol...
Not that I mean to! I’m just a bit stubborn. Just a little bit… (insert TCP comment… NOW!)
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Is that what they are calling it these days?
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
lol
I knew you couldn’t resist. Some call it that I think. My wife just calls it “Ass.”
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
LOL Once I saw my name I had to.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Can DRoyce be nominated for the CP10 award since he abandoned Miami for the G-Men?
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
lol... uh oh
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
NO!
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Don't you think it'd be a nice little going away gift?
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
NO!
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
lol
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
lol
Agent J 78 - February 15, 2012
Who made the gif fist pump rec?
That would be my nomination for the OFF4L award
Hollywood Dolfan - February 15, 2012
Fist pump!!
I believe it was Jason_Scott_90
He’s got my vote for that gif alone!
BigBenky - February 15, 2012 via mobile

CP10 Award: SMP
Mandich Award: ?
Ohio Award: ?
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
why is it the jim mandich newsflash award?
he was a commentator…what am I missing?
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
Just let us remember the man, lol
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
by all means let's remember Jim "Mad Dog" Mandich
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
I was actually thinking the same as you, but I couldn't think of another way that I'd recommend remembering Mad Dog anywhere else in the awards.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Mandich Award: KDog
jdelsandro - February 16, 2012
I have to add some competition here...
Mandich Award I’ll go with TCP and for the OFF4L award I will go with AlejandroN for all his postings during training camp.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Thanks again.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Since Slotmachineplayer and colt_munger are already nominated, I will nominate the returning champ, Teal Deal
For the off4l award, I nominate off4l himself (is he still eligible?) since mr medic, TCP and alpha are nominated already. The Jim manidch award nomination goes to finhead83 since dog is already nominated.
AnishB15 - February 15, 2012 via mobile
Agent J 78 - February 15, 2012
I nominate Mosul for Mandich award (is that allowed?)
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
Yeah, why not?
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Like the old saying goes-
Well it’s something like that.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Did that quote originate from yourself?
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Yes, his hair slid all the way off his head and parked itself on his ass.....
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
Such a hairy ass probably makes his nut bra uncomfortable...
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
does that happen when you get old?
In that case I want to stay young!
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
Easy there Peter Pan.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Wood, stump...peter. HE HE HE HE
Hollywood Dolfan - February 15, 2012
examples of euphamisms for Dick?
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012

Phinphinatic - February 15, 2012
lol
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
oh lmao...
Take that TCP….
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
Says the smart ars thats older then me.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
alpha is older than you?
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
Oh yeah. By more then a decade I believe.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
alpha...your 100?
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
I'm 38....
He’s 40 something… like 42.
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
LOL Such a lie. Also I am not that old and your far from that young.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
wait you're not that old?
I had the impression you were 50
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
lmao!
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
No, no, no.
My dad just turned 63 so that would be weird.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
someone told me you were 50...i can't remember
omg I feel like an @$$
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
LOL No, not yet.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
lmao...@ he's 50...
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
Yeah, but to make it easier for your family...
I know you guys go by leap years.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
No and we are not hillbillies or anything either.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
LOL
My picture proves otherwise…
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Man I has something really mean but I took it down.
Lucky for you one of us has a soul.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
lol
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Hey I found another 4.5 mil in cap money by the way.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
How so?
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
Well as per the new CBA each team got a 3 mil. exemption
for one player during the 2011 season that would not count towards the cap. That could only be used on one person but if the player had a cap number of 5 mil then they could have that person only count 2. Well for every season after 2011 they get 3 exemptions for 1.5 mil a piece.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
From my understanding, it is actually $1.5 mil total for 3 players, not $1.5 for 3 players each.
I used to think that as well. I wouldn’t necessarily rush to use it though because you’re only borrowing from future salary caps. If Miami makes that move, that’ll be money taken from their cap in 2013 and 2014. I believe it is $500k in 2013 and $1 mil in 2014, but I could be mistaken on that part.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
No.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
so
your dad is only two years older than me
fansince70 - February 15, 2012
that was meant for tex ^
fansince70 - February 15, 2012
.. you're TCP's dad?
Hmmm…
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
Yeah.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Alpha and TCP have checker fights in their retirement community.
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
LOL I am about to lodge one in that MFers orbital cavity.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
... and then there will be smoking?
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
LOL
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
LOL No. The item lodged will be a checker not a pe..........
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
Only because with TCP's age...
The checker is more stiff…
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
... and bigger...
Alpha6 - February 15, 2012
lol
Finhead83 - February 15, 2012
No. I have a nice full head of hair. I am one of those guys that will be grey but still have a full head of hair when
I get stuck in the ground.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
I'm still stumped on the OFF4L award
Kdog92 - February 15, 2012
You're stumped?

Do vids of training camp that people paranoidly assumed were leaking vital info to enemies count?
Yes they were pulled, but they were awesome and no one who rationally thinks about the issue should have a real problem.
So, AlejandorN for Ohio
If not than Tex for the bikini pics in ckc
Strange - February 15, 2012
Oh yeah Alejandro is a good choice.
texascowpunk - February 15, 2012
