Hot Male Web Hosts Gone Wild!
April 29, 2008 9:11 AM
Due to the supreme level of audience demand, I have opened a wild-card slot in the New Media Minute-TVWeek Tournament for the Hottest Male Web Host.
That’s right, folks. ONE wild-card slot for a write-in candidate.
To refresh you on how the rules work, we currently have 16 contestants divided into eight pairings of head-to-head battles in this first round. By Friday, the eight winners will move on to the second round. We will add one more contestant in the wild-card slot to make nine in the final round.
So far, David Price of Black20 is leading for the wild-card spot. His benefactors at Black20 submitted his name as a write-in candidate on Monday morning. I promptly responded that if I received at least 25 comments right here on this blog that I would strongly consider him as a write-in/wild-card candidate. And you know what? Those scrappy dudes at Black20 posted a note in their forum, rallied the troops and provided the aforementioned 25 comments.
After I watched this video of David Price in his Speedo, I can see why he would qualify. (And remember, folks, I am an expert on objectifying male Web hosts.)
But in the interest of fairness, we’ll need to open this wild-card slot to the whole wide world. So here are the rules. The write-in candidate with the most comments on his behalf on this blog post will be added to the final round of voting.
The other candidates are listed below, so please keep voting. And remember, I’m not the only one doing this. Here’s a contest for sexiest weather girls.

Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves. The wild card slot will be awarded to the candidate with the MOST write-in votes at the end of the week. And it's only Tuesday!

Dave Price from the middle show is the de-facto host of any web talk show. he gets my vote for sexiest and most talented.

I vote for Dave Price from the Middle Show!

Wait, how does this wild card work in the tournament style? Does he get a bye until the finals? Can there be only one wild card? Because I totally spaced and forgot to nominate Paul "Fitzy" Fitsgerald from Townienews.com. He hosts the Wicked Pissah Webcast, and has also appeared on ESPN before Monday Night Football. Can you let him know that he's been nominated so he can muster his fans to help out?

Rock the vote for Dave Price!

Go Dave! You have my vote!

Bryan:
Here's how the wild card works. It's designed to give an opportunity for candidates who weren't selected by the panel of judges in the first round. So based on the number of write-in votes (as determined by the comments for a candidate posted here on this blog) we will allot one wild card spot for the final round. That means the eight initial winners of the first round will move on and a wild card will be added, making 9 candidates in the final round. There is only one wild card. And if you are "nominating" someone who is a legitimate Web show host, feel free to let that person know you are rallying write-in votes on his behalf and then have them come here and add comments.
Any questions email me at daisywhitney@comcast.net

My write in vote is for David Price! He's winning this.
Posted by Tom_Z | April 29, 2008 12:23 PM
David deserves to win this, his charisma and overall hotness is unmatched. You have my vote.
Posted by Villain | April 29, 2008 12:44 PM
I've always had low opinion about "who's the hottest here" polls... Because... why should I feed someone's narcistic self esteem, will anyone vote for me as the hotest person in return?
It's just another way to stuff people's brains with the dull stereotype that ugly people are worse than the pretty ones, which is crap.
Never the less, I'd like to place my vote for Dave Price here, not because of his being or not hot, because it doesn't determine his personality, but because his Middle Show clips are witty and with come from the Black20.com website that provides a doze of fine humour daily :P

David Z Price commands my vote. His will be a wild-card story for the ages--victory is nearly assured. Keep voting for David Price, people. The truth always lies somewhere in THE MIDDLE SHOW! WHOOAAAAA!

Now I'm glad I posted the link for the speedo walk in the last post. So you could see the sexiness and comedic genius that is David Price in Black20's "The Middle Show." It's the least I could do to share the eye candy that is David Price with the world.
Of course, my vote also goes to David for the wild card spot. Thanks for the consideration.

Patrick Norton, b/c he's a big burly guy w/sledgehammer who loves cats, beat alcoholism, gets on well with his female cohosts and is confident enough to wear a kilt on-air.... :)
Posted by Bree Darrow | May 3, 2008 8:38 AM
David Price deserves to win this like nobody's business. He has so many great quality's that make to show worth watching. For instance, he LOVES Dora the explorer, will do ANYTHING for a laugh, and has the guts to do the soulja boy dance in front of god and everyone. My vote will forever and always go to Mr. David Price.
