Mushy should get it, but all serious I think Clarke deserves it.

Monty for me
Was 6/4 a little while ago (ie a few minutes back) at extrabet.com - come in to 13/10 already.

Why, he has not scored that many runs this season.

That why I said all serious. I was only joking about Mushy.
Whilst not wanting to trivialise what Darren Clarks has gone through in his private life, if he gets the award it sums up all that is wrong with the Sports Personality BINFEST every year.

The sad fact is that very few people who win sports personality of the year actually have one, they just happen to have excelled at their own discipline during that year.
Problem is that "most dedicated and successfull sports person, not necessarily displaying any form of interesting personality, of the year" doesn't have any form of ring to it.
My money would be on Zara Phillips

What he said. What if Monty Panesar's mum and dad had died before he skittled Pakistan? Would a double personal tragedy make him more worthy of the award?
The whole thing is a load of brylcreemed bollocks on stilts. In fact, I'm not even sure why I'm talking about it now, instead of going to bed.

I'm not going to go near it. There have been about seven 'clear' favourites in the past six weeks, which goes to show the underlying lack of an obvious strong candidate. Every time anyone does anything remotely good, they're the new favourite.

Would be a disgrace if Clarke wins. Yesterday was a great story and Im full of respect for how he played in the circumstances, but if he wins the award it will be purely because his wife recently died, which is way wrong.
I think hed be embarrased to win it and doubt he wants to.

Darren Clarke - shoe-in. Everybody was saying how he'd have to miss the Ryder Cup after his wife died - only six weeks ago, ffs - but to play at all and to play as well as he did was sheer emotional and sporting magic.
