Slater Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 http://msn.foxsports.com/other/story/3629648?GT1=6444Can't remember any other kicker being nominated NFL MVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB33 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 No, but if any other kicker should have ever gotten consideration it would have to be Vanderjagt in 2003 when he didn't miss a FG or PAT all year. #CHOMPCHOMPCHOMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I remember the Magic Johnson MVP and how much I thought Jordan deserved it. But Mark Mosely HAS to be the worst choice ever.

Cujo Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 As for Nash winning it (which he didn't deserve to), I loved Shaq's recation when he was by the press that he had come in second to Nash. In another classic Shaq moment, (jokingly) he started to sob all over a reporters sleve going "Nooo!!" and "Why?!?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaid Paint Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 But Mark Mosely HAS to be the worst choice ever. Please.Moseley got the MVP because he kicked the gamewinning field goal in overtime against the Giants in crap conditions on a crappy playing field and with that same kick he set the NFL record for consecutive field goals.This Kevin Hench tool has his head up his ass and doesn't seem to understand that the MVP award is meant for the MVP to a team, thus Kirk Gibson's selection.

NJTank Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Well the Dodgers had a MVP that year his name was Orel Hershiser, no way no how should Gibson had been MVP, his post season herocis do not matter here, the vote is done beofre teh playoffs. Strawbery shoudl have won it taht year in a landslide. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_cynic Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 For me it's Steve Nash. I will always remember this year just because of it. Talking about a crappy year where nobody stepped up.

See Red Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 While i won't say he's the least deserving ever... Steve Nash is the one I can think of, at the moment.He's a complete defensive liability (and even that is an understatement) and he puts up numbers in a system where he can't help but put up numbers and a system in which a lot of starting PG's in the league could put up similar numbers.

HedleyLamarr Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I would say Alex Rodriguez, when he won while playing for the last-place Rangers.Without him, Texas has managed to play winning baseball. Valuable, my ass.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Oh yeah no way A-Rod should have been MVP in 2003. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamingboy Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Not MVPs, but I remember when Rafael Palmeiro won the Gold Glove even though that season he was mainly a designated hitter. Insert Witty Signature Here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I'm a firm believer that the MVP should be the most valuable player to his team. That said, Andre Dawson in 1987. The Cubs could've finished where they did without him.While he was not MVP, why not Tom Seaver for '72 Cy Young? 2nd in strikeouts, 2nd in wins, a sub 3.00 ERA, while doing it for a Mets team that did NOT finish horribly in the basement.

Mac6674 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Didn't Terry Pendleton win in '91 with some underwhelming stats? I guess we can blame him for the Braves being in the playoffs every year; he started it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentomushi5150 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Of course Shaq deserved the MVP. Look at last year, where would the Heat be without him?<massive sarcasm in case of confusion> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Of course Shaq deserved the MVP. Look at last year, where would the Heat be without him? The Heat moved from 4th in the East to 1st.The Suns moved from 27th in the NBA to 1st. Worst choice in recent memory was 2003, A-Rod.A sports writer in Chicago gave no votes to runner-up Carlos Delgado, it was widely known that he disliked the city of Toronto.His reason "I don't vote for an MVP on a 3rd place team".His 1st place vote went to A-Rod, who was on the last place Rangers.Brilliams! --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
