What's the point of a SOTG thread if the (clearly) popular choice isn't selected? Both deserving but looked like it was 80% votes for Sam.

It is the Scoop Electorial College who determines the winner. This secret group meet mysteriously after every game somewhere in the Rocky Mountains at a Craft Beer & Ganja Festival. It usually takes a week for the white smoke to surface and the winner is declared.

Fair. Guess I was under the assumption that the 'vote' here mattered. Regardless, I can't even disagree with the Rowsey choice despite popular opinion.

Rocky has 270 electoral votes while the rest of us have only 268 combined.

I'm not sure it's Rocky.  Based upon his description of what happened, it's that damn coin that has the 270.

Sam is now second on the team in assists with 78, good for 2.9 apg. That's ahead of Markus, Sacar or Greg. Against just 33 turnovers. He's significantly improved his passing, rebounding and defense this year, in addition to expanding his repertoire of shots.

This is another tough one - Sam hit so many key shots when MU needed them.  But Rowsey held everything together (and MU fell apart for the 2 minutes he was out).  Flip a coin, heads Sam, tails Roeysey - tails it is.

That's the inherent conundrum of choosing a singular "Stud" within a team environment.  As has been pointed out on this thread, we won "because everyone did their job."  Which is certainly correct.  IMO, they were all studs and I'm really proud of their performance.  Still, my vote for the "studliest" goes to Sam.

My inside sources tell me that the Scoop Intelligencia have the final vote. They meet at Arby's after the festival and vote via secret ballot on used Beef n Cheddar wrappers.  A smear of Arby's Sauce for the Party candidate, Horsey for the People's choice. Crumpled up ballots are then counted and announced by Rocky, Scoop's Mullah Omar.

I think Rowsey was the most valuable, but I think Sam had the most studly performance. Rowsey is going to be the most valuable player in every game until Markus is back.

Why does it have to be a single stud?  Sometimes I wish they would be a little more creative with their SOTG winners.

Earlier, I said Sam was "obvious." But the more I've thought about it, the less obvious I think he was, and I'm totally fine with Rowsey for all the reasons folks have said (including what I said in my ridiculous post claiming Sam was obvious).

Rocky is probably quite relieved that I'm OK with his choice.

So they are like the electoral college.

Interesting that Chick wants more than one stud.

Seriously, I like it when there's an argument over STOG. In the first place it means a W, and further, that multiple players chimed in.

Theres a reason most countries don't choose off a popular vote. The majority is wrong a lot.
