A few votes ... (Doogie dots for extra em-PHAS-is)
Schnoodler - Reasonable and consistent mind amid a wasteland of vapid posters. And being lactose intolerant, I'm jealous of his ice cream abuse.
Grunkie - Even though he's reportedly 14, and only posts intermittently between trig class and phy ed, he writes extremely well.
GopherLady - The penultimate insider and sports chick, we can excuse her WI roots for all the intangibles she brings
MBAGuy - Fellow Section 105er, also brings reason and smarts to what can be a cluster-f of derision and mutiny.
Dr. Don, DpoDoll, yada yada yada ... so many more to put a vote in for, so little time.
I hate to rain on the love fest here, but this is one of my ultimate pet peeves. "Penultimate" means next to last, not extra-ultimate.
Thanks for the correction, I'll try to stick to the urban dictionary from now on.
BTW, I'd like to add a vote for the 12th Man as the penultimate best poster for 2009.
if you want a dark horse candidate take a look at Jike Spingleton's posts. They're pretty insightful when he puts his mind to it.
All of the above are great, but no one has mentioned Gopherpops....His reply on recruiting and how well Brew and his staff treated his son was the best reply I've read all year long.
