The 2nd annual Boston Sports Fans Choice Awards Show showcased the 2006-2007 sports season. Sports legends, team accomplishments and memorable moments from this year's Boston sports scene were highlighted.
We recognized and honored those athletes who have gone above and beyond the call of duty by giving back to the community and causes close to their hearts. These athletes who are strong role models to our children, and who give unselfishly of themselves to those in need, were honored with the WZLX "The Hometown Hero" award. This year's recipients included:

Bruins: Zdeno Chara

Patriots: Ty Warren

Revolution: Jay Heaps

Young up and coming players demonstrating skills and promising futures were nominated for this year's 2007 Rising Star Award. Nominees included:

Bruins – Phil Kessel

Celtics – Rajon Rondo

Patriots – Stephen Gostkowski

Red Sox – Dustin Pedroia

Revolution – Adam Cristman

This year we had a tie for Rising Star with awards being presented to both: Patriots; Stephen Gostkowski and Red Sox player; Dustin Pedroia.

Athletes nominated by fans and local sports media for Most Valuable Player went head to head with their peers for this dubious honor. The field of nominees included:

Bruins – Marc Savard

Celtics – Paul Pierce

Patriots – Tom Brady

Red Sox – Josh Beckett, David Ortiz, Mike Lowell

Revolution – Taylor Twellman

With Tom Brady of the Patriots taking the MVP award.

Special Outstanding Team Achievement Awards were presented to both the Red Sox and the Patriots, for their outstanding seasons!

Stand up comedy by Tim Walkoe rounded out the evening, and all net proceeds from the evening's silent auction benefited two worthy local causes; Ty Warren's First and Goal Foundation and the Boston Bruins Foundation.

The WBCN Red Carpet show will air on Comcast SportsNet: Jan. 26, 2008 at 8pm and again on Feb. 2nd at 8pm.
