What is the Most Pointless Annual Award?


The BBC Sports Personality of the Year....

I've come to this conclusion with no real evidence or quantitative research, just thought it should be this one. Not unlike like what the boys at the BBC do every year with this 'prestigious' prize. Ok, there is the dismal voting turnout made up by the 'viewers' (always sounds quite Orwellian to me that term) whose only sport is the TV dinner toss into the bin.

What does the prize mean? Does Chris Hoy have a better personality than say Ricky Hatton? I'd have a pint with Fatton anytime before the thigh master (do you reckon he would talk in circles? Sorry, terrible joke). Shouldn't it be called 'this years biggest sporting achievement award as voted by those who watch too much TV and/or bothered to call in'? It's not like the current title is catchy, at least it would stop dickheads like me witting this drivel on his day off.
