Hey guys I had this idea awhile ago and decided I'd run with it finally. The team doesn't have many awards they hand out but I thought it would be cool if we did a yearly awards for the Jets here on HFJets. A few of them would be statistical awards but others I thought we could all vote on. Kind of a fun little exercise. I came up with a few awards here but if anyone has any thoughts on different ones please post them. I figure I'd get them out there for now and we can vote at the end of the season/playoffs whichever comes last. Also if anyone wants to make up some images for the awards feel free to do so, that is not really up my alley.
