The SB one is the Vince Lombardi Trophy and if you have something nasty to say about that one Vince will rise from the dead to rip your throat out. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:45 19
- This escalated quickly. :-) -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 06:05 2
  - Vince doesn't appreciate people questioning his career excellence. - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 06:09 1
    - I didn't know that, neat. Vince's Maryland house was near my grandparents. It's pretty cool to see. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 06:21
- nah, that makes sense, just couldn't remember it. Does MLB have a name for it's one? -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 05:46 15
  - Nope. It's just the Commissioner's Trophy. Boring! -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:48 14
    - They should just pick a Yankee and name it after him. I'll say the Yogi. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:48 13

      - The Babe Ruth Trophy, who doesn't like The Babe? -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 05:52 9
        
        Yogi won more rings and went to more WS than any other person. Besides, everyone loves Yogi. Even Yankee haters love Yogi. -- nm* - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:53 2
        
        The Steinbrenner -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 05:54 1
        
        You did mention being liked. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:55
        
        actually they should do what the NHL did and create a trophy for the HR leader and call THAT the Babe - Beaker Apr 20, 05:53 5
        
        And give the same trophy for the strike out leader too! -- nm - CQ Apr 20, 06:13 1
        
        You can call that one the Reggie. The Babe doesn't even rank in the top 100. Reggie has 2,597. Babe just 1,330. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 06:16
        
        That would work. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:53 2
        
        no one comes close to the NHL and their Awards. -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 05:54 1
        
        Now if they can turn that into people watching they'll be all set. ;-) -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:57
      - If you're going that route, then it has to be the Claudell Washington Trophy. -- nm - CQ Apr 20, 05:50 1
        
        Of course, how could I forget the great Claudell Washington. -- nm - Krusty Andromedon Apr 20, 05:52
