The Harmie Award was created in the spirit of our favorite 1970's Quarterback turned teacher and anti-terrorism crime-fighter, Mark Harmon.  We will be doling out awards each week for those players, coaches, and commentators that exhibit not only exciting plays and decisions on the football field, but also a general take-no-prisoners life outlook.  In essence, the kind of brash white-knuckled leadership that simply makes me want to grab a cold one and watch you go to work.

You deserve recognition, and this, friends, is that.

Here are the week 1 winners.

MHP (Most Harmon-like Player) Harmie: Jonathon Crompton.  Yes, everyone ever, keep reminding me that it was ONLY WESTERN KENTUCKY.  Still, he deserves this most coveted of internet jpeg trophies by way of only 1 fact.  He threw more TD's Saturday (five) than in all of 2008 (four).  Jon, you can pick up your award at Vic'n'Bills.  (If you get it, you get it.)

More Harmies after the jump.

Coaching Harmie: Bobby Bowden.  When asked at half time by the beautiful Erin Andrews what FSU needed to change in order to finish drives in the second half, he responded with "finish drives in the second half."  Couldn't agree more, sir.  I would have been flustered too.  Here's your Harmie.

If you're keeping score at home, that's 1 award and 0 headsets for Coach B this week.

Take No Prisoners Harmie: An easy choice here would be LaGarette Blount.  Except the Harmie Award is too prestigious to take the easy road.  I'm going with Matt Bosher, kicker for Miami (FL).  Not only did your special teams colleagues allow a 45 yard kick return, but you, the kicker, then tacked on an extra 15 by completing your tackle in damn-near the second row of Doak Campbell Stadium.  FSU took a short field and, no kidding, finished a drive (guess that pep talk worked, thanks Bo.. er.. Jimbo).  Enjoy this Harmie while you're running laps tonight in practice.

Media Harmie: It didn't take long for this award to identify a recipient.  During Thursday's ESPN Game of the Week, possibly my favorite segment is Dr. Lou.
This gem in particular, "There are a lot of things I don't know about in life. For example, I don't know why St. Paul kept writing the Corinthians when they never wrote him back."  

I've already had one associate take offense to the religious reference and several more ask me what in the hell that has to do with football.  I don't know guys.  I don't.  But the light bulb might be somewhere in here.  I think Cohron's read it.

Runner up: Also Lou Holtz, "On their front four they have 1 senior, 3 sophmores and two freshman.”  Yes. Yes, of course they do.

See ya next week at the podium!
