I've come to the conclusion that I'm not in favor of the ESPY Awards. We already have awards for successful athletes - MVPs, league titles, etc. Besides, is an awards show the best thing for the often sizeable ego of the professional?

My plan - give the ESPYs to amateurs, bench-warmers, and fans, and have the big-money types pound nails for Habitat for Humanity during the presentation. The people not often in the spotlight get to shine for a night, and we all win when we get to watch Shaq try to hang drywall.
