Who to Pick On
So our recent controversies have been bunches of fun, our traffic is up, the entertainment factor in SEO is at an all time high, but if we don't pick on some pompous SEO fast, we run the risk of getting bored again.
So cast your vote on who to pick a fight with.
Disclaimer: For those stuffy bastards with no sense of humour, it's a just for fun.

No, no, no. Atom you have to pick on whoever will create the most publicity for you. |

Can you describe each of them in 10 words or less, John? Will help me to better decide. |

Oh .. right.
Well, Matt "company man" Cutts maybe, but that could prove to be one hell of a can of worms. |

Aaron Wall - awesome guy - www.seobook.com Great guy, but he is on the political Left
Randfish - Another great guy, but needs picking on because he is way too successful
Barry Schwartz - needs picking on because he removed my link from his site
Jim Boykin - Just an all around fun guy, needs moderate picking on.
Loren Baker - www.searchenginejournal.com - needs picking on for charging me an arm and a leg for my ad.
Brett Tabke - Just popular guy to pick on, can't think of anything evil he's done lately
Doug Heil - #1 punching bag of the SEO industry
Matt Cutts - Google employee, and let's not forget the evil Google vistied upon Bluefind
Andy Hagans - sells text links, so he must be evil, right?
Ammon Johns - Because he hasn't joined my forum yet. |

I chose Aaron Wall because I actually do have a lot of respect for Aaron and know that he is more than capable of looking after himself.
He is still fresh out of court after taking that other company to the cleaners and he is definately no pushover.
In reality, would I flame/pick on Aaron? - You gotta be having a laugh, he'd destroy me in no time and it would be a complete suicide mission 
For PR (not page rank) purposes, Matt Cutts and Aaron Wall.

Matt Cutts would be most interesting.  Probably because I don't know many of the others that well. |

Matt Cutts would be great publicity, but then he'd PR0 v7n ....
Maybe we could just pick on all of them, but we'd have to pace ourselves. One per month.  |

True, Atom, even I am anti-Bush, and I have always been Republican.

I say we pick on the one who has the least votes at this time tomorrow, and for those of us not familiar with said person, do some research. |

I'm a little surprised by the lack of one name in particular. As long as I've been doing this I can't believe that name is not there as a potential target. I don't think I even want to play if that name is not there!
The name I'm referring to of course is -----

I was even told that the taggle team was linking to a famous German car manufacturer's website. And we all know what happened then  |
