FAVORITE ATHLETE
Dirk Nowitzki – The Big German once again took home the votes. No other player in DFW sports history has made the financial sacrifices that Dirk Nowitzki has to win a championship. Still a team player, this Mavericks team is his while moving up the all-time scoring chart. We’re looking for a deep playoff run this year!
Blitz Pick: Dez Bryant

BEST LOCAL SPORTS RADIO TALK SHOW
The Hardline – The Old Grey Wolf and The Snake must have rallied the troops for their afternoon drive time show “The Hardline” to take home their first Blitzie. The dynamic duo has been partnered up since 2009 dropping knowledge and humor on TickHeads and Ticket Chicks in the world of sports and pop culture. We thank them for teaching us all we know about “front-bottom.”
Blitz Pick: The G-Bag Nation

FAVORITE LOCAL SPORTS TV ANCHOR
Mike Doocy – He’s the sports helmsman for FOX 4 and heads up “Sports Sunday.” When you want a local feel for our teams that is witty and interesting Mike Doocy delivers. He’s seen our big four sports teams at some of their most memorable moments plus some great localcollege commentary. Highly visible and always polite, he represents what’s  est in sports media.
Blitz Pick: Newy Scruggs

BEST RADIO SPORTS BROADCASTER
Eric Nadel – He is the voice of the Texas Rangers. Some of you old school readers might remember his start in 1979. We like to remember him as the man announcing the Rangers clinching back-to-back American League pennants. This year in addition to being the recipient of the prestigious Ford C. Frick award, having his own bobble head, he get’s a Blitzie.
Blitz Pick: Chuck Cooperstein
