Well there you have it, the first annual Syracuse Orange Blogger Awards have ended. They've come to be known as the SOBs in some corners, the Ottos in others. Whatever you refer to them as, know that it was a blast getting all the Orange soothsayers together to talk about the one thing we can all agree on, and we hope you enjoyed reading about it. We've learned a lot, including whether or not our awards hold merit when Josh Wright wins more than Andy Rautins or Paul Harris. I'm sure you'll see the SOBs/Ottos again come the end of Syracuse football season, which is when you'll need that sort of diversion the most.
