freebird587 Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 in the nfl to have an award,voted by our fans, given to a player for outstanding performance in 4 game increments...im sure some of you know of superfan,our falcons cartoonist,that does cartoons for the games,and is extremely talented...well,he and a few others,wanted to frame a cartoon and present it to a player voted on by the fans,along with a hickry stick(its called the hickry stick award)and the innagrual award went to roddy...the winning player keeps the framed cartoon,but has to pass along the stick to the next winner...its really a very great idea,and the players really think its a cool thing...this is the just of it,but you can go to tatf and see the video of roddy accepting it and read about how it started and how it got to where it is now...you might even be hearing about it in the postseason during our playoff run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
