2007 Thread Of The Year Nominations

[TheSpyder]

I was just reading a thread and there was a comment about it being one of the funniest ever and got to thinking there's been some real doozies over 2007 so.....would anyone want to nominate a thread for "THREAD OF THE YEAR". I would expect the professional posters would remember some good ones (that were not deleted).

What is your choice? Can be funy, informative, whatever. You know, kinda like horse of the year, picture of the year, only this will be thread of the year.

Any takers?????

Wow, yeah, that was an awesome day, and it's my vote for thread of the year, too. Good suggestion! How far we have come!

Any nominated thread that does not contain a contribution from PG1985 must immediately be tossed in my opinion. He has to be included.
Off the top of my head, the one where he asked us all if we thought Nobiz like Showbiz was unbeatable is a classic.

I don't know if those threads exist anymore.

My personal favorite was toward the end when he said he stayed he stayed up all night capping because "the great ones never quit..."

It was all entertaining in a strange way, kind of like watching a train wreck...

i'll agree with that, pg definitely has to be considered. one of my favorites is when we first caught him posting fake bets. the thread may be gone now but first he posted that he was done for the day, broke. two minutes later he posts that he had just made some big pick three play. but earlier in the day he said he doesn't bet online so i asked him how in the world he got the pick three bet in so fast. his answer? there is an OTB just behind his back yard and he ran over and back very fast.

Didn't that turn into him wanting to meet someone at the OTB and settle things because they only lived 10 minutes apart? Pillow, Dahoss or someone else?

That one is from 2006. Does that disqualify it from "thread of the YEAR" consideration?

I wonder what has happened to some of the posters in those aforementioned threads.
