Who Should Be Utahn of the Year?
Here I am on a Sunday afternoon, relaxing a bit reading the Trib online and I come across this poll. Who should be the Utahn of the Year? Here are your candidates, let me know what you think.
1. Matt Aune and Derek Jones, these are the two gentleman that were escorted off of the Church's Plaza for lewd behavior. (kissing and such)
2. Carlos Boozer, Utah Jazz power forward.
3. Dave Checketts, owner of Real Salt Lake
4. Tim De Christopher, guy who place bogus bids which halted a BLM lease sale.
5. Max Hall, BYU quarterback who should learn when to bite his tongue.
6. Gary Herbert, Utah's new ultra conservative Governor.
7. Jon Huntsman Jr., Utah's previous Governor and current U.S. ambassador to China.
8. Rick Koerber, accused of a fraud scheme that cost investors $100 million.
9. Mia Love, Saratoga Springs mayor-elect and the first black woman to be elected to the position in Utah.
10. Nick Rimando, RSL goalie who stopped three shots in the shootout that made REAL the MLS champions.
11. Elizabeth Smart, I think we all know who she is.
12. Brett Tolman, outgoing U.S. attorney for Utah.
13. George Wahlen, Medal of Honor recipient who died in June.
I don't know about you but I can think of a lot better names to put on this list. Who would be at the top of your list?

Is that a joke? Half of those people sound like lunatics.
On that list my tops would be John Huntsman Jr. or Elizabeth Smart. On my list would be Stephanie Nielson of NieNie Dialogues. Everyone should check out the story just written on her for an Arizona newspaper. The link is on her blog.
That's the list...interesting. I don't even live there anymore and I could even think of better names. Come on Utah!
