[BoxerMaurits]

2023 was a hard one, hopefully this year is a little easier little brother.

Was it sir?

 

[Jinx_AA]

I got Poirier fan and bandito … they seem to get it … im sure the others do to , I just can’t recall them all off the top of my head as I can with these 2

 

[Substance Abuse]

Some great posters and I have voted on a couple of these guys in previous years

I choose not to vote, because @Davidjacksonjones is a true disciple of Goat Jones and the only guy I will vote for

He is spreading the message to the masses

You should vote. The other posters deserve it. Unfortunately, he got DQ'ed through double yellows.

 

[StonedLemur]

Was it sir?

It was man.

 

[BoxerMaurits]

It was man.

Keep ya head up brother

 

[Frank Kain]

Why you saying that big guy?

Hehe, I was so stoned, I didn’t even type it right…yeesh…. The forgotten UFC fighter thread got me all sentimental…I need to drink 3 pitchers of beer and get in a bar fight…I miss those…

 

[StonedLemur]

Keep ya head up brother

I always do sir, that's how I recognize when you guys need love little brother lol.

 

[StonedLemur]

Hehe, I was so stoned, I didn’t even type it right…yeesh…. The forgotten UFC fighter thread got me all sentimental…I need to drink 3 pitchers of beer and get in a bar fight…I miss those…

Lol, gotcha.

 

[Ares Black]

You should vote. The other posters deserve it. Unfortunately, he got DQ'ed through double yellows.

It happens. I was ineligible the last two years in a row due to excessive infractions.

It's good to be back!

 

[StonedLemur]

It happens. I was ineligible the last two years in a row due to excessive infractions.

It's good to be back!

I definitely noticed a calmer ares this year sir.

 

[Poirierfan]

Lol, gotcha.

Lol, he's projecting. Lmao, I love it because I do the same shit.

THE FINALS



Greetings, ladies and gentlemen!
Welcome to the Grand Finale of the 2023 FrankieNYC Poster of the Year Award!

To begin, I would like to thank all of those who took the time to vote for and participate in the other Frankie NYC Award threads. They were fun, brimming with positivity and filled with hilarious posts. You guys kept the thread active and gave it the attention it deserved.

To those who didn't make it to the Finals, you're still all posters who contribute to what makes Sherdog the best MMA forum on the internet and your posts and personality go toward making the boards a better place to post. Good job you! Thank you, and congratulations!



***********************

And now, without further ado, here are your top 10 finalists for the
2023 FrankieNYC (Poster of the Year) Award

@Ares Black
"Sherdog's long tenured Ontarian with a tendency to voice his displeasure with all things politically incorrect, Ares is as steadfast in his MMA fandom as he is speaking his mind. Posting on the boards for over fifteen years, Ares may be polarizing and obstinate, but it's one of the many reasons he's a memorable part of the forum."

@Arqueto
"As selfless as he is talented, Arqueto is always ready, willing and able to assist with an avatar request as he is to make you laugh with one of his timely and hilarious shoops. From St. Patrick's Day all the way through Christmas, he's spearheading the seasonal avatar push. Arqueto is a constantly helpful member of our community."

@BoxerMaurits
"Sherdog's new age UberTS, BoxerMaurits is seemingly ubiquitous - one day he's at a GLORY event mingling with Alex Pereira showing him how to leg kick, the next he's at a UFC event with @Buff , putting together ideas on what throw pillow should follow Shadface. Constantly driving attention to kickboxing and making us all laugh, he's been an awesome addition to the forum the last few years."
View attachment 1021646


@HHJ
"On the boards for nearly twenty-years (!!!), HHJ - I'm not sure what the acronym stands for - is as constant as 'needs more birds' in an event poster thread; excuses Brazilian fighters make when they've lost; Tito's ailments going into a fight; and the UFC Hot Dog brander. Possibly the man to take the all time posts lead when Chules and myself are long gone, HHJ is an informed and passionate member of the Heavies."
View attachment 1021647


@HI SCOTT NEWMAN
"Half human, half cat, all MMA fan. HSN is an active, upbeat and creative member of the PBP crew and an all important member of the cat community on the Dawg. Knowledgeable and ready with an inside joke only a Sherdawgger would know, HSN is never toxic and always friendly, a rare breed on the boards."
View attachment 1021648


@KazDibiase
"Sherdog's Gif God™, Kaz is a two time winner of the FrankieNYC Award, and with good reason. Present for every event, his gifs are the one constant you can rely on as a user on the boards. Every time there's a finish, he's posted it. Every memorable moment that occurs, he's provided it. If you've been on the boards chances are you've seen his gifs. A longstanding, helpful member of the forum, KZ is a rock of dependability."

@Kryptt
"Water is wet, the sky is blue, there's a play by play thread created by Kryptt and you've been mentioned by him to join it. Need a reminder that there's a regional event? You'll get it. Need a heads up that a card is starting early? That too. A huge part of our endlessly entertaining and invaluable PBPs, Kryptt is just that as well."
View attachment 1021649


@Mohawk Banditó
"Quality over quantity should be Mohawk's slogan. He may not be as active as others, but when he posts, it's worth a read as well as an opinion to heed. Rarely is there a time where a post of his isn't educated and insightful. Always a pleasure to read and interact with, Bandito demonstrates that activity doesn't always equal memorability."
View attachment 1021652


@Poirierfan
"Active in just about every PBP - ONE, Belloltor, PFL, UFC - PF has grown leaps and bounds this past year as a poster and shown themselves to be an incredibly passionate, knowledgeable and upbeat member of the Heavies. Somehow always ready with a story in hand to match every situation and engage users on the forum, PF has definitely earned his place on this list and is a pleasure to interact with."
View attachment 1021650


@StonedLemur
"StonedLemur has come out guns blazing the last two years. Active everywhere from the War Room and Jukebox to the Mayberry and the Heavies, Lemur's opinions and interests run far and wide, intersecting with a litany of posters, connecting with them in myriad ways. He is Sherdog's everyman."

And with that said, this concludes the 2023 FrankieNYC Award (Poster of the Year)
presentation.
​

I have to say... I really rather enjoyed the brief "bio" of each of the finalists.

Well written, succinct, a short to-the-point reveal on the style and raison d'etre of each finalist.

Much appreciated. I thought it was a worthwhile addition to this year's award thread.

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

I voted for Boxer and Kaz too.

Lemur, you're another poster that was difficult to vote against. I demand 3 votes next year minimum.

Stop making us feel small with your fancy smancy words.

 

[OldBoy91]

Good luck to all of you beautiful bastards.

This is harder than a parent trying to pick their favourite child.
