The only annual award is "Fight of the Year".  How about adding Submission of the year, knockout of the year, card of the year, etc.
I didn't get crazy into MMA until 2005, so I'm a little overwhelmed trying to make "all-time" lists.  I'm still catching up on all my history lessons and great fights but I'm definitely confident in my picks for the annual lists.

Would you be interested in them only on a going-forward basis (2010, 2011, etc.) or going back as well?  We are definitely thinking hard about the rankings, and collecting good suggestions both here and through the 'Talk to Tapology' panels on the right.  It's crazy when you start to think of all the possibilities with the rankings.

Also, transcribing interviews is time-consuming. 

But enough about my Sunday night.

Haha, especially when you've got an interview that runs upwards of 30 mins.

Yeah, I've had a couple interviews on my show that last over an hour.  The problem is, those are usually the best ones
