I am one of the many who missed the party tonight. Could someone recap it for us. I know Keats put in a great deal of work all year with his post games blogs. I want know who go what awards, who was the greatest and who made parity great. Any and all perspectives welcome

This should be a link to the presentation. You missed many funny things, at least one more-or-less appropriate call-out for creating a meme, and most of the presentation doesn't make sense without my soothing voice walking you through all the jokes, but you can probably still enjoy the diet Coke of presentations in some way if you try.

It was missing the commentary for sure, I tired to imagine your voice for it, but all I got was and endless loop of "CATCH YOUR Ds" but even without it was pretty great, sorry I missed it, maybe next year

It's less the Diet Coke and more the, "Is Pepsi okay?" of presentations.

Given some of the pictures, you could make an argument that it's more a pure uncut coke of presentations.

This is the best PowerPoint-related slag I've heard.

I was referring to Al's post, not Amos'. Amos' post sucked.

Don't knock it till you try it, Master Piper! Might be a cure for "grumpy old man" syndrome.

Keates usually posts a link to the slideshow, though it does not come with the Sideshow Bob commentary from Amos, Sul, Al and Geofford. Yes, it was great. Hats should have been worn: tinfoil and otherwise.

Also, don't trust the presentation. Bisang did, in fact, have 88 drops this season. If ever there was doubt as to what a "Bisang" was, no longer!

I fixed the .ppt before I linked to it.

FUN FACT: Bisang only won the drops award last year over Bush because Bush "worked for the league" and couldn't win awards. It was a technicality that led to the creation of the Bisang meme.

I'm sorry/not sorry about that, Bisang. Sorry, because you are a meme. Not sorry, because it's funny.
