If Macklemore wins I'll cry.

Charley Sheen cannot beat Marcus Wilson. Marcus Wilson created Pony. Charley Sheen would be a twice divorced alcoholic used car salesman in Tallahassee that declared bankruptcy due to gambling debts if his dad wasn't a famous actor. This is not even funny. Start voting right people.

Lucciauno is spelled with one n. If I change the spelling in the polls, it messes it the results.

Steve Pool, handing it to Lemmy right now.

and I agree with Fish Wrench Asteroid about Marcus Wilson needing to beat Charlie Sheen.

@2: People respect that Steve Pool has oracle-like powers to predict the near future. Cross him and he'll portend your death (if it's happening in the extended 10 day forecast).

As far as Lemmy... why is anyone still talking about him? He's a rock guy who somehow survived a hard life and (one-hit) stardom. If he gets a trophy, who is next? Nelson?

Fruity Pebbles can not miss from the outside. Thomas Hunter needs to start playing man to man defense. Get a hand in Fruity Pebbles face.

I like Fruity Pebbles don't get me wrong, but Thomas is one of the better guitar players in the city.

Hardest choices: TJ Cowgill vs. Choklate, Rachel Flotard vs. Gucci's face tattoo (like them all) and Tit Pig Sean Evoy vs. Robin Pecknold (don't care for either).

Wall of Sound should win. They need the money more. And people actually come see them, who live in other parts of the world.

"P Smoov: Mad Rad, Fresh Espresso, icy producer steeze, vegan"

Vegan? Really, this guy draws the line at eating meat but won't hesitate to chop up lines backstage at a Ballard club?

Yeah douchebag, we all saw that.

Steve Pool vs. Lemmy is really a tough one. I finally voted for Steve and I think I can best frame the match-up like this: The biggest badass in the world (Lemmy) vs. the biggest badass in the UNIVERSE (Pool).

Lemmy is a collector of Nazi memorabilia.

Anyone else on this list have balls that big?

Lemmy got my vote -- his last name is Kilmister, and Motörhead's still making quality music, btw.

Also, one time Steve Pool came to talk to our middle school class. He said he was going to mention us that night on the telly, but he didn't. Broke a lot of hearts.

Now all I do is listen to Motörhead and consume amphetamines...quite the coincidence they're pitted against one another.
