Cockiest Crew - HBO's Entourage crew vs. Jackass 2 crew
Don't watch Entourage, although I want to. I will go with the Jackass crew, those guys are up for anything.
Sickest Rhymes - Nas vs. Jay-Z
Not my game, I will just say Nas as I have never cared for what little Jay Z I've heard.
Coolest Geek - Rainn Wilson (NBC's The Office) vs. Masi Oka (NBC's Heroes)
This seems like a perfect match-up, although it will end up being a little lopsided. Masi Oka has been winning fans over ever since his days on Scrubs; now he is the sweet samurai sword carrying, time traveling bad ass geek, while Rainn is perfect for his annoying geek on The Office. Who would you choose?
Gutsiest Move - Stephen Colbert (his speech from White House Correspondents
Association Dinner) vs. Chris Peterson (Boise State Head Football Coach)
Not sure what Peterson did, but even if I did, I think I would have to go with Stephen Colbert's speech, that was genius. This is a guy who is really fun and knows how to twist the knife.
Kingpin (Guy of the Year) - James Gandolfini vs. George Clooney
Huh? This just strikes me as a lame category. I don't recall either of these guys really burning things up over the past year. I think this would have been better suited to Kiefer Sutherland. I will have to go with Clooney, as I am not big on The Sopranos.
I believe there are a few other categories to be announced, but does this look all that interesting? Honestly? Yeah, its nice to see these off-kilter categories, but they seem to be taking serious cues from MTV. I probably won't bother watching it, but it was fun peeking through the offerings.
You can even vote on who you want to see at the winners podium at Spike TV's website. Voting is open until June 1, 2007. The show will be taped on June 9, in Los Angeles, and premiere on Spike TV on June 13 at 10 PM.

Why are you commenting on this when every other match-up has you saying "I'm not familiar with either of these" Why even bother when you clearly don't have a clue when it comes to over half the nominations?
2 - Chris Beaumont
So I'm not familiar 3 categories and half of another. I am familiar with 11. Not sure where you got the "more than half" part.
Besides, perhaps there are people who wold be interested and are not aware that they are having these awards. Now they, and you, know and can go and vote to your heart's content, as well as see the other nominees that weren't in the press release. And as I stated it was the Ballsiest band category that got my attention for its odd pairing.
3 - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Do we really need a write-up about another awards show? I bet they call you something else around the office behind your back.

you are an idiot. you picked George Clooney over TONY SOPRANO! you pick a lot of these just because you don't know one of the people involved, Nas vs Jay-Z (Nas is the correct choice but you still don't know why), Colbert vs Peterson, Entourage crew vs. Jackass 2 crew, Chuck Liddell vs. Dog (you didn't know ether and just randomly picked one) Bryant vs. Tomlinson (again you don't watch ether sport and have no idea what your saying)Minka Kelly vs. Rashida
Jones (you didn't even pick a winner)Dominic Monaghan vs. Cash Warren (again no pick)

you suck why would you review the show. they need someone whos into all of the categories, and they definitely need someone who watches basketball, football and ufc. your a pussy who shouldn't comment on anything involving spike.
