Goldferg

I think if he goes beyond 21 he gets inducted into the Try-Hardian Hall of Fame, along with Brick & Dixie

Becoming a super beast with a tendency for high octane flying shits...its a lifestyle choice.

Tezmission Black

Or he can get a seat on the Try-Hardian Council for being able to spot true Try-Hardians.

The Streak is over!  After 4 weeks, Bam Bam's run is over.  Ruined by Duckman.  Yep, one of the hosts of the show has highjacked the Try Hard Ruler Award with this beauty:

Controversial winner this week.  Get your nominations in for the next show and knock this cocky Duck off his perch!

There's a cruel irony to this week's Try Hard Ruler of the Week winner.  Last week Duckman's nomination won, this week - he is nominated for being try hard and that nomination wins.

So, well done to Drama Queen for his awesome nomination of Duckman, who came up with a new t-shirt slogan for the non-listeners of MFX: "I'm Not A Podcast Guy," and then only advertised it on the podcast, so the guys the t-shirt is for, won't actually know about it!  The very definition of try hardness!

Think you can beat 'The Irish Peacock' Drama Queen?  Then get your nominations in to mfx.show@gmail.com and maybe you can claim the fame, power and glory of a successful Try Hard Ruler of the Week nomination!

P.S - the t-shirt will be coming soon.

P.P.S - screw you DQ! :P

A first time win for friend of the show Jag with his Try Hard Ruler of the Week nomination for MFX116.

His nomination goes to a man who became contender for Ireland's dumbest criminal as he knocked himself out with a brick while trying to smash a car window.

The 'thick with a brick' was found lying in a pool of his own blood by the car's owner after it rebounded off the window and smashed into his own face.

A great pick from Jag.  If you spot something that you think is Try Hard, send your nomination in to mfx.show@gmail.com

Jag makes it two weeks in a row with his nomination for the Try Hard Ruler of the Week.

It goes to these idiots, who thought they stole cocaine and sorted it, but it turned out to be their Grandfather's ashes:

Three shows in a row for JAG!!  Boom!  He's one away from matching Bammers record of 4 shows in a row.

The thing to take away from this story is don't try to double bluff cops, especially if you're a fucking retard:

The streak is over!!  After three weeks in a row, and one of the greatest Try Hard battles of all time, Jag has been knocked off his throne.  Seriously, the THR contest on MFX120 is the best ever.  If you've not heard it, go check it out because it's an awesome collection of stupid people and bad decision.

And who won the greatest THR of all time?  Friend of the show Adam Wrong!!  His winning story was this amazing tale of one man and his own wanted poster:

Think you can top Adam?  Think you can find something even more Try Hard than this?  Then send your nomination in to mfx.show@gmail.com

Adam Wrong's run at the top is over after one show.  On MFX121 we had joint winners of the Try Hard Ruler of the Week Award as my buddy Steveo and Blade both hit the top spot with this story:

It doesn't get much more Try Hard than that folks!  Well done to Blade and Steveo and if you think you can topple them (like someone in a wheel chair trying to use a treadmill) then send your nominations in for the next show to mfx.show@gmail.com

Time to play some catch up on the last few Try Hard winners.

MFX125 - Colin Weir makes it two wins in a row with this hilarious story about Phil Neville (ex-Man Utd, Everton and England footballer) who tried to tweet in Spanish to fans of his new club, but ended up saying something rather more disgusting:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3159492/Phil-Neville-accidentally-sends-rude-tweet-trying-send-message-Spanish-saying-run-beach-making-crucial-mistake.html

MFX126 - In a truly hard fought battle friend of the show Goldferg picks up the win with this amazing story about a love rat Dad who sent a lookalike to a DNA test for a paternity case, only to end up arrested and jailed for fraud:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3124467/Love-rat-dad-tried-dodge-child-support-payments-sending-LOOKALIKE-DNA-test-mistress-pregnant.html

MFX127 - Colin Weir is back with another win with this example of Try Hardism at its finest.  Kelly Osbourne tries to call Donald Trump a racist for his comments on Mexicans and ends up saying something really racist herself:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3185325/Kelly-Osbourne-melts-View-commercial-break-making-racist-comment-Donald-Trump-needs-Mexicans-clean-toilets.html

MFX128 - Once again Colin Weir OWNS the Try Hard Ruler competition with this story about Auschwitz museum bosses being accused of insensitivity after erecting SHOWERS to help visitors cope with summer heat:

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/auschwitz-museum-bosses-accused-insensitivity-6360287

So there you have it, Colin Weir showing his dominance over the Try Hard Ruler nominations.  Will he make it 3 shows in a row?  Check out this week's MFX129 to find out!
