Admittedly, I’m not the biggest sports fan that you might encounter out there. In the past ten years I’ve seen two baseball games and maybe three hockey games. I don’t watch the traditional seasons of anything and usually record the Super Bowl so I can zip through the game play to make note of any of the commercials that I might need to speak about here or on PiercingMetal.com – That being said, I didn’t want our readers to miss out on the recent nominations for the ESPY Awards which were just announced a couple of days ago. ESPY stands for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Award in case you didn’t know. This will be my first year including this awards show in my rundown of these kinds of things. I hope you enjoy it and here are the nominations.
