Shaun Alexander Up for 3 ESPY Awards

In addition to being inducted into the Buddy LaRosa's High School Sports Hall of Fame this week, Shaun Alexander was nominated for three ESPY Awards: Best Male Athlete, Best Record-Breaking Performance, and Best NFL Player. You can vote for Shaun at ESPN.com (I suggest clicking the skip intro just below the Under Armour logo or else you have to wait awhile before you can click "Vote Now").

The other Best Male Athlete nominees are Lance Armstrong, LeBron James, Albert Pujols, and Vince Young. For Best Record-Breaking Performance, he is up against Ben Roethlisberger (youngest QB to win Super Bowl), Mike Metzger (125 foot Back Flip over fountains at Caesar's Palace), and Kalen Pimentel (18 strike outs in Little League World Series). The other nominees for best NFL player are Peyton Manning, LaDanian Tomlinson, Brian Urlacher, and Steve Smith.

Antwan Randel El is up for the GMC Professional Grade Award for his TD pass in the Super Bowl and Bill Cowher is up for Best Coach/Manager.
