For Frick's Sake...

PrintWell, according to TSN.ca Tom Cheek has once again been denied the Frick Award. Let's discuss...
The award went to Jon Miller. He did the Sunday Night Baseball Telecast for 20 years so he certainly seems deserving and I wouldn't want to take anything away from the guy.
To think I wasted all of those minutes voting on that wretched Facebook poll. To be honest, I don't even recall seeing Jon Miller on the ballot. I'm sure he was there but I don't recall seeing him receive many votes and it really makes me think that the poll was a very futile exercise. Heck, that's exactly what it was.
Should we continue to care about this award, inasmuch as we want Tom to receive it? Have people stopped caring already? I might soon.
Those of us who were fortunate enough to listen to Tom Cheek's broadcasts know that he was a fantastic broadcaster so do we really need this post-humous award to validate what we already know?

People associated with The Jays will never win awards like this. They are still pissed we won back to back titles. Notice how they never mention 92 and 93 when talking about the WS?
I know Mr. Cheek was the best, hopefully one day he will get his proper recognition.
