2011 Biggest Bagger Award

Bagger… the most often spoke word in the GMDGC, that is if you don’t count obscenities.  Or the word “shady.”  But, honestly, “bagger” is a popular term in these parts.  Sometimes it comes from love, other times from hate, and sometimes from jealousy.  I think Emmett really helped push it’s use this year but he certainly wasn’t the only one shouting it out at awards ceremonies.  

Be honest, loyal readers, this is the award you've really been waiting to read about.  It was nice to give Dave Frothy some more positive feedback yesterday, but this is the award that really gets you thinking.  So here we go.  

Murray bagged most of the year away but ultimately couldn’t bag a win.  It sounds like he really took a step up on the tough guy chart after his performance at Pinnacle this weekend.  Andy missed the memo on the AM 2 mass exodus but obviously knows he's in the running for this one because he talked up his non-bagging skills on the message board recently.  James Sweat has been called a bagger after more than one tournament this year.  Mike Habets bounced back and forth between divisions when it seemed like he couldn't win the pro division.

But, the crowd has spoken and the answers are in.  This year’s Biggest Bagger, with 56% of the vote is ANDY POWELL.

Sorry, Andy, but we're all ready for you to move up.  It might have been one year too long in AM 2.  But, thanks for being a good sport and for having such a great back and forth on Circle Three.  You are due your speech, so type it up and get back to me.
