I follow football ( !football@sopuli.xyz )
Every year the best player wins the "Ballon d'Or", based on votes from journalists from all over the world.
Criteria tend to change from year to year, and you usually see a lot of fans pushing for their candidate a few months before the award. Ask any football fan and they can always tell you which Ballon d'Or they think got "robbed", usually using their own metrics to justify that choice.
It always seemed a bit weird to me how important the whole thing is when that game is mostly collective.
