British Sports Personality Of The Year

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

It's the year of the more less-known sports but, British EWBers who will/would you be voting for on the night?

I choose Joe Calzaghe, cos he's the best boxer Britain have ever produced, simple as.

He's the longest reigning boxing World Champion and has a 42-0 record after demolishing Jeff Lacy.

Cooke would place second for me cos cycling > *, and she won the World Title and the women's Tour De France, leading from first to final stage...The same way Lance Armstrong did that had all the reporters creaming over him.

EDIT: Gah, I set up a poll but it didn't add it for some reason...

The list is:

Joe Calzaghe (boxing)

Ricky Hatton (boxing)

Beth Tweddle (gymnastics)

Andy Murray (tennis)

Nicle Cooke (cycling)

Phil Taylor (darts)

Monty Panesar (cricket)

Zara Phillips (equestrian)

Jenson 'the underachiever' Button (F1)

Darren Clarke (golf)

Walliams.

Is Todd Macklin back in Britain? He's got a personality!

[Farmer Reil]

I'd vote for Andy Murray, because other than Phil Taylor, and knowing what the cricketer looks like, I've no idea who or what the others are or have achieved.

[Colly]

Zara, because I totally would.

[9 to 5]

Clarke, just because he played fucking well to smash the Americans right after losing his wife like that. That takes fucking balls and skill.

[YI]

Horse, Royal, Zara Phillips won.

Clarke was 2nd, when he stood up my dad yelled "CHRIST! He's wearing a suit made out of somebodies 1950's sofa"..bwahahahaa, you'd understand if you saw it. :@

Zara deserved it; Clarke was part of a winning team. Beth deserved to do well too, and she did.

The fact we have a gymnast that wins World gold medals automatically makes her our best ever gymnast, which is hilarious but also kinda cool...

[Liam]

Beth Tweddle or Joe Calzaghe should have won it.

[MDK]

When a fucking horse rider wins sports personality of the year, you know british sport fucking sucks.

[TheArsenal]

The Queen pulled rank....

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Calzaghe won some other sports personality of the year award.

As he should have won this one.
