    My vote goes too a man whom I get in fierce debates with all the time..but whom I respect. My2Sense. He may have the personality of a doorknob(joke), but he is hands down the best debater on this forum. He can pick apart a vulnerable point in a post better than any big time prosecutor can. He is very by the book and will do a great job.

    It would make a lot of sense for voters to pick 5-10 people from this list or elsewhere in order to determine a majority consensus. It could also expedite the process of voting.

    I nominate myself, due to my experience as captain of the world's foremost underwater research facility.

    One vote each for those in bold. Think your idea for backups is good, CM

    I am disappointed that my name was not mentioned....Outside of PHILLY PHIGHTERS (and even with them), I don't think I have any agendas or petty grievances with a particular boxer, and believe I have outgrown those biases in the past few years....I would not have accepted anyway, but it would have been nice to hear:

    But due to availability of these posters it might be nice to pick 5-10 so that alternatives can be tossed in occasionally....or if 1 judge says I have a hard time being rational about that fighter due to my like/dislike of them, and would allow justice to be served by a more impartial panal!

    A system of 3 judges (or more) is still always going to be a flawed system, but remains more preferable to me than just 1 absolut authority, who I may not feel has as good of a grip on a match-up nor the necesary objectivity!

    Some of the names on that list have got to be a joke (or serious conseling is in order for some self and outside nominated names....posters who I would not feel comfortable in their insights on boxing any more than those of my Boston terrier...or ones who's objectivity is laughable at best!!!!!

    How did your Boston terrier score the FOTC?

    While I am thankful for my name finally being mentioned, I will just quote a quote from one of my favorite all time posters!

    Like Gen. Sherman said, i: “If nominated, I will not run; if elected, I will not serve.”

    I don't remember his exact card, but it is more realistic than some poster's can offer....I think he had Frazier winning...if not he is gone tommorow!!!!
