Was there really any doubt that Clint Dempsey wasn't going to run away with this award?
As some of our commentors pointed out during the voting, it seemed a bit one-sided. Not just
because of their own qualifications, but the over-whelming case that could be made for Sir
Deuce.
With nearly 40 goals for Fulham in the English Premier League and counting Clint Dempsey has made
the biggest splash of any American aboard, ever.
Last year we debuted our first selection ever for "Person of the Year". The award went to the
German ad agency Nordpol+ for their roll in creating the brat train and under-the-seat kegs at St.
Pauli's (Germany) soccer stadium.
Beer and soccer indeed.
This year we're opening the award to out FBM community to decide.
