THE DREAM IS OVER: KIFFIN EARNS MORAL VICTORY OVER MITTS

PrintLane Kiffin has been given the death penalty by Esquire readers, losing by a 41%-59% margin to Florida's Heather Mitts. We're sorry, we just...we need a moment.
We'll never listen to your bar recommendations or pithy men's fashion prescriptions again, Esquire, nor heed your admonitions about not owning a quality wristwatch. We will buy you from time to time when you put an astonishingly attractive woman on the cover and we need something to read on the airplane, because we enjoy the uncomfortable smile you can flash at the scowling old woman sitting next to you in the middle seat when she notices you staring at the cover. But besides that delightful, awkward moment? No way. You're on probation, so to speak. <----IRONIC PHRASING Y'ALL.

I don't understand
how someone could not get that it is a much better waste of time to vote for a guy like Lane Kiffin in that contest than any woman. Either way, she’s not going out with you.
Even after redirects from EDSBS and others, I still couldn’t socialize with that 59% of Esquire’s web traffic. It’s probably well upwards of 80% for their normal traffic.

Lets get serious
guys, every SEC team was voting for Kiffin and we even had help from UCLA. When we put our minds to it, we should NEVER lose an internet poll. I, quite frankly, am disgusted at our collective lack of effort. If We could force a Barkavious Mingo win, then we shouldn’t have an f-in problem with this!

You even had SC people voting for Kiffin… because it was funny.

I mean, no one really reads Name of the Year
But some people read Esquire.

This was more than just an SEC thing.
It was the entire college football fandom that lost. It just shows that we need to be more viral in our marketing. There is no excuse for us ever failing. We have the ‘wisdom of crowds’ that occurs with having such a diverse group of people. We do not get points for trying.

Clearly rigged
Esquire couldn’t face having to put out a Sexiest Woman Alive issue with Lane’s bitchass on the cover — no matter how ridiculously awesome that would be. The lack of journalistic integrity is disgusting.

Seconded
This makes more sense. “There was a bug in our system that only counted every third Kiffin vote. We don’t know how it got there.”
Sparty on. Gator done.

Holly, there's a call for you on line one...

For his middling record in Sexiest Woman Alive contests
Kiffin will be rewarded with a Playboy centerfold spread.

He’ll be singing “Fight On” in Holly Madison’s face all night long. It’s gonna be great.

All Internet polls regarding female hot-ness
are ultimately settled by horny 14-year-old boys. We should be thankful Kiffykins got this far before runaway teenage hormones took over.

Well, we all know he cannot win football games,
At least he has won a few matches of something for the first time in his life.
