Steve gets my vote. WSC had an interesting piece on bloggers earlier this year, but it has not made it up quite yet to their online archives: http://www.wsc.co.uk/content/category/4/15/29/

The most interesting was the Best Team Performance. I went with USMNT v Poland. I can't vote for any tie...

Best team performance HAS to be WNT gold medal final v. Brazil. A mens friendly or a youth team game? C'mon.
Best goal is Lloyd's strike to win that game, and best performance is either Rampone or Solo in that game, take your pick.

My analysis of the candidates.
Soccer Insider: The best soccerblog in the history of soccerbloggery. Vote, delete cookies, vote again, repeat.
BTB, MNT, WNT: Bogus. These are press releases, not blogs. Crikey! Why don't they just call Dana Perino's press conferences The White House Blog? These shouldn't be on the list, and for USSF to nominate its own blog is worse than worst perception of Bradley's nepotism.
NYT: Sure, if you want your blogs updated every few days or so.
Offside Rules, Unprofessional Foul, The Red Card: Never heard of them until five minutes ago.
SBI: My friends, what do we know about this Ives Ahmadinejad Chavez Jong-Il Galarcep? He doesn't see soccer they way you and I - the Real America - see soccer.
Notable absence: MLS Rumors Rumors, The Onion of soccer blogs. EdtheRed: Dude, you wuz robbed.

100% agree with OWNTF and voted that way last night. The best game I watched on vacation:-)
I still can't view the fan photos. WTFAIDW?

Best individual performance not listed: Natasha Kai torching the Canadians for three.

270 -- check the first entry for best photo, it's a crowd shot from that game . . .
OK so I'm off to a slow start at work today . . . .

Behind the Badge is not that bad. They could do more with it. Towards the end of the Season they were posting up a nice graphic of the formation, starters, etc. I know we can get it here, but I honestly found some lineups posted there before Steve got em' up.
They also gave away free tickets for the most accurate score line predictions...
Go register, just don't say anything negative or you'll get the cold shoulder:-)
