Attention Timbers Army: you’ve got competition. As WW’s 2008 Best of Portland Readers’ Poll passes the 1000 vote mark this morning, Brandon Roy has a one-vote advantage over Timbers fave Takayuki Suzuki in the race for “Best Local Athlete.” Oh, the drama! Don’t worry, Timbers fans, you still have 19 days to get all of your drinking buddies to take the survey and swing the vote back to your team. In the meantime, we here at the office are still waiting for the Rose City Rollers to field a contender. Who’ll it be, ladies? Cadillac? Rollareina? We eagerly await your votes.
As far as we can tell, no one is yet actively trying to win the “Best Weirdo” category. Elvis has a slight lead over Clyde Lewis and Tres Shannon. I know there’s got to be someone out there who deserves to win in a landslide.
IKEA is, so far, clearly your favorite place to buy furniture. But they ain’t local, folks. Do you really want to give the people’s endorsement to a bunch of furriners? Think it over.
Finally, Geek in the City continues to trounce its competition among local blogs, while Cort and Fatboy are gaining on Rick Emerson as the best radio hosts who aren’t batshit crazy. Fight! Fight! Fight!

Best local radio host who isn’t batshit insane? There’s only one who even has a smidgen of sanity: Arya Imig.
Local radio host who isn’t batshit crazy???
I can’t think of a single one. Being batshit crazy is a prerequisite to going into radio.
