The 2007 Sports Blog of the YearWell, the fine upstanding blog Busted Coverage has gone out and put together a 2007 Best Sports Blog Tournament with what they consider to be the top 64 Sports Blogs.

It’s no surprise that FanHouse, Deadspin, Awful Announcing, and The Big Lead are your top seeds. These guys bring it every day. They deserve the honors.

Now, for some reason (namely a decent BallHype rating) Home Run Derby has been included in this tournament. HRD is the #8 seed in the West Region, versus the blog known as You Been Blinded.

We are humbled.
We are honored.
We want to win.

So in a shameless beg for your vote … we’re gonna give this a go …
“Major League” style.

Lou Brown peels a sectionRemember in the movie “Major League” when the Cleveland Indians’ manager (Lou Brown) brought out the cardboard cutout of the owner (Rachel Phelps) and said “every time we win, we pull off a section” ?

Well, for every win Home Run Derby gets in the 2007 Best Sports Blog Tournament …

… we peel off a section of Alyssa Milano’s Touch clothing..

Alyssa Milano

The winner gets $50 bucks and a Bikini calendar.

If HRD wins, we’ll donate the $50.07 to the Susan G. Komen foundation for Breast Cancer Research. We’ll give a lucky commenter the bikini calendar.

BallHype: hype it up!
