BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award - Who is yours?

[Barrel of Fun]

Well?

Obviously it is always quite contentious and they ignore those that are not performers in the 'minor' sports.

 

[dougdeep]

I expect that Swiss racing driver will get it.

 

[ATFC Seagull]

Calzaghe, unfortunately not fashionable enough though.

 

[Kenhead]

Calzaghe as he is a winner

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

calzaghe for me, but no doubt it'll be hamilton

 

[Trigger]

Toseland.

 

[Dave the OAP]

if that effing drug cheat gets anywhere near I will demand my license fee money back

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I can't find any reference to Team of the Year. I assume Sussex are not in the running this year, despite retaining the County Championship - not quite as prolific as a double.

My vote went to Robinson. What man Such a shame we will not see him on the rugby field again.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Perhaps,someone can explain to me how Ohuorogu gets on the short list ?

 

[Gully]

I would like to see Ricky Hatton win but think the events of the early hours of today probably scupper his chances. In reality it will probably be Lewis Hamilton who wins it, but if it were just judged on personality alone and not sporting prowess then you would have to describe the list as being pretty bland.

 

[Statto]

Calzaghe for sure. Im a big formula one fan but Hamilton shouldnt win it. Sure he had a great rookie season and he will be champ one day but he finished SECOND. It would be like rewarding faliure. Calzaghe has remained unbeaten, and defended titles.

 

[Easy 10]

Sure he had a great rookie season and he will be champ one day but he finished SECOND. It would be like rewarding faliure.

But thats exactly what we Brits do. If Hamilton had actually won, we'd not have liked him very much because winning is for ARROGANT people and bad losers. Whereas Hamilton has achieved exactly what we like - a glorious FAILURE.

Its what we do best. And he will win by a street (or a lap).

 

[BensGrandad]

Only one winner Hamilton. I love boxing but how many fights did Calazaghie have?

 

[Skaville]

I would like to see Kerry Mayo get a lifetime achievement award.

 

[Mr deez]

HATTON.

Never understood this competition, for sports personality, Hatton is the only option, the rest are dull. If it was sporting ACHIEVEMENT, I'd have a different answer.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I think 'personality' seems to mislead a fair few people. It only means a person of prominence within the world of (Britain) sport as opposed to the funniest/nicest.

 

[B.M.F]

It will be Hamilton but Calzaghe is a true champion.

 

[pasty]

As indicated by the fact that Nigel Mansell and Steve Davis have won it.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

No option for McClaren?

 

[Stevie Boy]

Robinson fo rme, great player, shame we wont see him play again
