Reply to: BBC Sports Personality of the Year

[Doggy Styles]

I saw the odd snippet of the show while flicking between that and something else that was on the box at the time. I was hoping Calzaghe would win, though I didn't watch enough of it to see whether he was even a contender, but I saw a bit of his speech. He may be the greatest boxer we have ever had. Well done the Welsh! I'm sure the cyclist chap is a grand fellow too, I just hadn't heard of him.

Calzaghe is a great, but he won it last year when he did something significant. This year all he's done is beat a couple of has-beens, and he nearly lost to the 43-year-old.

I went for Adlington because, as well as two gold medals and a nose, she's got a bit of personality. But I won't complain about Hoy.

So you have heard of him after all.............you slippery eel you!

I think he rides a bike.

Perhaps if he were a star at Dungeons and Dragons you might have heard of him?

Nope.

In the real world he is a star Sportsman. Well done him!

I think he rides a bike. Well done indeed.

As usual, the BBC come up trumps.

Chris Hoy.

"Personality" of the year??

Never heard of him.

Are any sportsmen/women these days?

You used the metric first. You asked for personality to be a measure and now it's not a measure.

I would not say Hamilton was the life and soul of the party.

At least his birds fit.

I'd definitely give it to Rebecca Romero.

Water sports, fantastic rider, what more could you want?

A tandem

[Doggy Styles]

I've no idea if she has a personality, but I'd give it to Rebecca Romero for winning medals in two sports.

Dunno about sports personality of the year, but Joe Calzaghe could be a contender. Unlike Lewis, he didn't do it by having the best car.

If it were as simple as that Heikki Kovalainen would have been 2nd instead of 7th, anyway you're not allowed cars in boxing.

[FiveTimes]

Didn't he win it last year?

should that stop him winning it this year ?
