Put it at the top of the webpage or top left or top right or at least somewhere where it is easy to see once we log in. That way, more people will vote and we will have a larger sample size. Either way, I personally read everything (except all comments) so that isn't a problem for me. I agree with what someone else said.

The only sport he really follows thoroughly is the NBA. Other than that he just follows the Boston teams. But I always got the feeling that he's at least sympathetic towards the Mets (the way a lot of Mets fans used to be toward the Red Sox until they won the Series and turned into the Yankees 2.0). He even wrote an article about 2 years ago in which he admitted to jumping on the Mets bandwagon in 1985 because of Gooden, and how it was such an event when he would pitch that year.

Scientific or not, it's fun. BUT, I always seem to miss the darned thing. As mentioned before in this thread, if you could leave it as the top post during polling hours, or put the poll right under the rating graph on the sidebar during polling hours, along with perhaps a longer window for submitting your vote, would help a lot!

And calling him a reporter is like calling the Daily Show a news broadcast. He's entertainment and opinion, not Peter Jennings. Simmons knows squat about the mets (or the national league in general).

I couldnt vote in that one because I had voted in the other one and it must have saved my IP as having voted. Seems like it doesnt let me vote about half the time. sometimes the option to vote in the ranking is already closed, like the post Santana news poll.
