Chump of the Weekend thread title

[Brogan]

As pointed out by Incubus here http://cliptheapex.com/threads/2011-monaco-grand-prix-chump-of-the-weekend.2799/page-5#post-53008, the thread title isn't really ideal as it can seem overly harsh.

When we originally set the poll threads up, we didn't really spend too much time thinking about the title.

So, please submit your ideas here and then we'll decide on the best one.

Ideally one word replacing Chump would be best, if at all possible.

Yes, I know the thread's supposed to be light-hearted, but the problem with current title is that it can provoke comments that aren't light-hearted at all, with posters taking ombrage at their favourite drivers being criticed in a vindicative way.
I think something with "disappointing, or "disappointment" in it would be fairer and posters would be encouraged to be more objective.

Homer / mushroom / Quayle / Sherlock / dropkick / airhead of the weekend?

Edit - I don't think im helping

You could always rename it as the Nelson Piquet Jr Award.

 

[Brogan]

I must say I'm quite liking Incubus' suggestion of Disappointment so far

 

[RickD]

I think Chump is still the best name for it..

"Movers and Losers"

"The Good the Bad and the Absolutely Stupid Fools Who Did Themselves No Favours Whatsoever!"

Waste of blood and organs? Christ, we're changing the wording of inocuous thread titles now?

 

[Brogan]

Just to be clear, it's only the word Chump we're looking at replacing.

The rest of the thread title will remain.
So they will be, for example:
2011 Monaco Grand Prix Driver of the Weekend
2011 Monaco Grand Prix ??? of the Weekend

2011 Monaco Grand Prix Driver of the Weekend
2011 Monaco Grand Prix Passenger of the Weekend

Christ, we're changing the wording of inocuous thread titles now?

If some members are being put off voting due to the title, then it doesn't hurt to review it and see if we can come up with something more palatable.

Like that one Spesh

 

[The Enforcer]

How about 'Numpty', 'Cretin' or just a good old 'disgrace'.

 

[The Enforcer]

Sorry Brogan, didn't refresh and only just noticed you want something more palatable.

Is Wally less offensive? It is at least alliterative. Passenger of the weekend in Monaco - well we would have all had to have voted for Sergio Perez given the number of times the BBC team said "he was just a passenger"

 

[McZiderRed]

After a bit of thought, I'd vote for the "disappointment" suggestion.

 

[Sarinaide]

"FAIL" - lifes tough, I think "chump" is good.

Some people need to "let it go", why get so wound up over banter lol.

I don't see what is wrong with 'chump' but then I'm not as PC as the rest of the World - as far as I'm concerned a chump is merely a foolish person.

If you're going to go with 'disappointment' you will need more than one option in every poll

How about "2011 ***** Grand Prix - Who was the Nick Clegg?"
