Above are the top four awards presented during the evening. You can vote at ESPN using the link. For those who may not be from the U.S., the ESPY's are the awards presented by ESPN. The question here is -

1.) Who deserves to win what?
2.) Jamie Foxx has just been announced as host. Who would you like to see host the ESPY's?


My 2 cents-
Derrick Brooks
A-Rod
Peter Forsberg
Tim Duncan

I'd like to see David Letterman host the ESPY's.
