For the second round in a row I managed an easy victory over THE FALSEST START EVER, 1,246 votes to 136.

This is your third look at me. This is your third chance to observe something you hadn’t before. Maybe I’m just a dumb outsider who doesn’t understand the business of football, by what does that dude in the background have strapped to his khakis? Is it a laminated play chart for punters? Shouldn’t the punter be wearing that? DOES THIS EXPLAIN EVERYTHING?!?!?

(4) Hello, friend. I am AARON DOBSON’S INSANE CATCH.

When last we met, I defeated MARSHAWN LYNCH BEASTMODE, 542 to 400. This is the choice you have: you can vote for a dramatic display of otherworldly athletic ability, or you can vote for the ding-dang doofus. I think I already know where your vote is going, and I’d simply like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your votes in the first round. I’m going to miss you.

VOTE!
