I Spy an ESPY





It is the equivalent of the Oscar in Hollywood...the gold star in kindergarten, and the "you go girl" in sassy gay guy speak! That's right, we're talking about the ESPY award. For athletes who've never won that coveted championship trophy, it is a modest yet much appreciated consolation prize. The awards are handed out every year and voted on by sports critics, professionals and regular old Jane Schmos like us gals at Chicks in the Huddle.



The 15th annual ESPY awards took place last night at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre. (The show won't air until Sunday at 9e/8c on ESPN.) Dozens of statues were handed out in categories ranging from the Arthur Ashe Courage Award to Best Sports Finish. (To get a full list of who won what, watch the show you lazy bum!!!)



Meanwhile, we'll share a list of categories that might have ruffled the feathers of these Chicks had things not gone our way:






Best Sports Moment: New Orleans Saints!-The Saints took home this prize for their amazing (and quite frankly orgasmic) win against the Falcons upon their return to the Dome after Hurricane Katrina. Bless you boys!






Best Game & Play: Boise State- Who could forget this team's upset win over Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl?






Best Team: Indianapolis Colts: A little debatable, but we'll let them have it.






Best Coach/Manager: Tony Dungy- He's the first black coach to win a Super Bowl and by far one of the nicest men you'll ever meet. Plus, he reminds me of the paw-paw I always wanted!






Best Athlete/NFL Player/Record Breaking Performance/Like Nothing Else Award: LaDainian Tomlinson- Nuff said.
