Nicely done Brian.
I am excited and proud of you Brian.
However, I must admit that the way Soccer By Ives begs for votes is extremely disappointing and has led me not read his blog.
You sir, are a deserving winner.
Best of wishes to you BQ! You put a lot of hard work into your pieces and it shows.
This nomination speaks volumes of the blog, but more importantly of you – Brian – who have showed devotion and serious objectivity in all your work. Congratulations!
Congratulations, Brian, well-deserved. IMS is a daily read for me. I appreciate all you do for soccer in North America and also your reporting of college, high school and women’s soccer in Minnesota. Awesome !!!
I just voted 20 times. Feels like I live in Chicago
Kudos to you BQ. This is THE place to come to for info about the game in North America.
Well done and well deserved!
Hope you win. You are the source for Div 2 soccer in the US.
I read IMS everyday–before I read the Wall Street Journal.
Wish he had a comic section
oh wait…………never mind
another 20 votes cast
Come on people if it is deserved then get your cursors out and start clicking! You know BQ is only going to vote once unlike some of the others
Congratulation on the nomination. Good luck. You deserve it.
Congrats on the nomination
Signed,

Congratulations to bq, Theresa, Jeremy, Kyle and all others who’ve made this blog what it is today. Your efforts are appreciated by fanatico across the land.
IMS’ coverage of D2 in the US and Canada has been the only real source of information for those of us who are so concerned about the game in our smaller markets.
Your integrity in reporting has enabled this website to rise above the fray.
Peace and futbol to you all.
Congrats!
You get my vote Daddy.
You do a hell of a job BQ!
Well deserved recognition Brian
