2023 Vendetta Awards
Before I decided on the awards, Karl was on the latest episode of Cheese to give his input on who should take home each award. If you missed that episode, feel free to click here. Let’s not waste any more time and get right to the Vendetta Awards!
*Post going back to 2022 Awards.
Rookie of the Year: Griffin Crest
Griff deserves this award. A hell of a start to his Vendetta career. He’s going to end up dropping over 500 posts in year one. That’s the definition of a success story that we’ve developed here. Griff is going to have a hell of a future.
Most Improved: Jiarmani DePena
It’s been a slow grind for Jiarmani but he’s on the right track. We’re getting more written stuff now and before it was only video. I think it’s going to be an even bigger 2024 for Jiarmani.
Best Trash Talker: Chickster
I don’t think the group did enough to steal Chickster’s award. It would be nice if guys like Jackson stopped stroking him off every five seconds. In reality, Chickster has been more calm but only because the idiots sort of weeded themselves out.
Best Brain: Jacqueline Soave
This award always goes to the most underrated weirdo. Jackie gets this one. She’s done a great job getting Vendetta to segway into food blogs. She’s the most unique talent we have right now. The best part is she doesn’t even realize it yet. I’m excited to see what she can do in the future.
Most Delusional Fan: RIP Milo
The bottom person is Milo. There is no other way to describe it. The guy’s brain is totally fried and he jumped ship at the worst possible time.
Best Duo: Jerry Walker & Jackson Fyda
Put some respect on the soccer group! Jerry and Jackson are lowkey friends and it’s only a matter of time before that section starts really firing. I need to get them more help in that area but those two are talented.
Best Video Series: Trey Daubert
Karl said I deserve this award so I’m going to take it. Marzzman Gaming is certainly a worthy candidate for this award and won it last year. I just don’t think the participation on the YT channel is good enough. The offseason guides and NFL Draft simulations are enough to win here.
Best Podcast: Hard Locks
I wrote about this in the past. The competition for this award has to be better next year. That’s all I know.
Best Article Series: NFL Draft Stock Report
Yes, I’m giving myself this award again. It is what it is. Did anybody else have an article series sponsored by FanDuel? Ok then. James Herrick deserves a shoutout here too for his series’ with the UFC.
MVP: James Herrick / Matt Hanifan
This draft class has really gone a long way towards progressing the company. Two stallions and I’m handing out Co-MVP Awards. Both deserve Thatta Boys all the time.
