2006 Football Outsiders Awards, Part I
Welcome to the fourth annual Football Outsiders Awards, sort of our version of the Internet Baseball Awards, but with special FO categories. For example, we've got the Keep Choppin' Wood award for the worst player of the year, and awards for most overrated and underrated players. Then we added some questions about the off-field stuff that makes being a fan so great, like the best broadcast team, the best writer, and the most annoying commercial. At the end you'll find a few questions about what you would like to see next season on the Football Outsiders website and in our book, Pro Football Prospectus 2007.
These are the awards for on field performance, players, coaches, and teams. Then move on to page two, awards for writers, websites, and television, along with some questions about our site.
