Rain Maker Of The Year

Yes boys and girls its getting down to the end of the year and so it is time to announce the 1st ever Rain Maker of the Year.....there have been some strong candidates my top 5 are as follows in no order I will announce the winner after.......

Lebron James- Argument For- Dude simply balls out of his mind every night has amazing stats and improved his defense 10 fold in the past couple seasons

Argument Against- Didn't take his team as far as they should have, they had the best record in the NBA and home court throughout the playoffs.....furthermore they had Orlando after they had just gotten down with a brutal series with Boston.....yet they could only manage to win 2 games and 1 was only miracle shot......by you guessed it Lebron. He took a lesser team to the finals a couple yrs back so this past season was a let down without a doubt.


Usain Bolt- Argument For- World Records in the 100m, and 200m. He is a freak athlete and also seems to be having fun with it all.

Argument Against-Does not really have one he stepped up every time he had to only problem is with track field he isn't in the lime light nearly enough.


Peyton Manning-Argument For- 2008 NFL MvP his third time......led the Colts to another 12+win season, oh and this yr he is a front runner for the MvP and currently has the Colts 12-0.....even when he has a bad game he still is a top 3 qb in the league.

Argument Against-Didn't win the Super Bowl last yr and didn't step his commercial game up......he has so much potential in the commercial world (cut that meat.....cut that meat)


Lance Armstrong-Argument For- Dude had cancer then dominated like never before took a few yrs off and oh yeah still almost wins one the hardest races in the entire world of sports.

Argument Against-Its cycling


Rasheed Wallace-Argument For-In order to understand why he is in my top 5 you will need to go back and read the requirments for winning a Rain Maker award....it is not simply about being the best or most dominant at a sport or in a realm of entertainment.......Sheed is a Rain Maker in every sense of the meaning however he is a great team player and is still capable of winning games for his team at his advanced age......but beyond that dude is fucking hilarious (Ball DONT LIE) beyond his humor I just love how honest he is.....Portland fans never knew what they had while he was in town they wanted a super star to carry their team and they were like obsessed girl friend no wonder he was smoking weed like cheech and chong while he was here (little tid bit he has had no off the court problems since he left town.....and has been a model teammate hmmmm) If you would have allowed him to just be him and build a team around him instead of expecting him to carry you to the promise land who knows how many titles you would already have.

Argument Against- Numbers aren't there and his team did struggle last yr but with Boston this yr things are looking great.


Winner- Lebron James- was there ever a doubt dude is just too dominant and he looks like he just keeps getting better.
