Of all the controversial decisions at Sunday's sporting event, perhaps the most important one was: Did the wrong puppy get the MVP award?

The puppy bowl was better the first couple of years when they just dumped some puppies in the ring and didn't try to pretend there was any structure to it. Just little fuzzy puppies and the water bowl cam.

Yeah I was there man, back in the day. It's all about the money now. The game's just gotten so corrupt and Vegas has too much influence to trust what really happens on the field any more.

yeah, these puppies today could really learn a thing or two from classic puppy bowl mvps like bark starr and roger pawbach.

Aberdeen got away with every call. The fans know it, the refs know it, and the MVP reflected the true spirit of the game.

It's the mainstream media, man. Fumble declared MVP by them from the start.

Jill Rappaport was definitely the LVP of the Puppy Bowl. That biatch didn't even try to look presentable.

To be fair, it is hard to look presentable in a room full of puppies, kittens, pigs, and hamsters in a blimp.

if Aberdeen played for a larger market team, there would have been no question. fumble's win was east-coast bias.

I heard they are reviewing the tuck rule as a result of this year's atrocious ref performance.

Too many pit bull mixes this year. Half the puppies were the same, and pitbulls. Baby-shredding pit bulls.
The adorableness was at an all-time low. Needed some baby pugs and bulldogs or something. Throw in a few wiener dogs - now
that's
a game!

This.
Seriously too many mutts in the second half. I don't care if they're animal shelter rejects, add variety, dammit.
Oh, and the Buddies can burn in hell.

Used to be just six hours. Now it's barely two, and even then there's product placement all over the place.
I thought that ref gave the dogs an Icebreaker candy.
Oh, well. At least the Yule Log Screensaver hasn't been commercialized.

Cesar Milan has ruined Puppy Bowl for me. I was watching Aberdeen and I all I could think of was how dominant he was and how he's going to be a problem for the wrong type of owner.

If Ed Hochuli was allowed anywhere near this Puppy Bowl, I can see why there's so much controversy. I'm sure he got every call wrong.
/ Ahmad Bradshaw fumbled, fark you Hochuli!

No Corgi puppies = no watch. I watched half of a remarkably good Simpsons episode (Bart is tutored by Superintendent Chalmers, gets infatuated with Teddy Roosevelt) instead.

I was also disappointed at the lack of Corgis.
But we had our own 'senior' puppy bowl at our party, with 5 dogs running around all night. We had such cuties as a Sharpei/Bloodhound mix, Beagle/Lab, Lab/Pit Bull and a Lab/fark what's that dog that's like a greyhound, but smaller.

[hipster glasses & scarf.jpg]
knew this year's puppy bowl was going to suck when it started with:
Dog tailgaters
Hamsters in a balloon
Parakeet tweeting
A new ref
Just too much. They need to go back to simplicity-- a bunch of puppies, some toys, and a guy in a ref shirt pickin' up the poo.
Damn puppy sell-outs

Probably a whippet. Seems here on Fark they show up in a lot of posts.

i'm glad somebody said it. just because you're playing with puppies doesn't mean you won't be on camera. sheesh.

What I love the most about this story is that even though there is this undertone of amusement - "we're not really taking this seriously" - is that despite the light tone,
somebody is actually thinking about this
.
And knowing that makes me happy.

I've been trying to teach my Pit to shred babies. But he's too docile. Anybody have Michael Vick's contact info?

Auberdeen had a strong game, but Salem put up a great defensive effort. When will MVP voters stop slighting defensive standouts in the big game?
