Sports personality of the year shortlist...

Jenson Button
Mark Cavendish
Tom Daley
Jessica Ennis
Ryan Giggs
David Haye
Phillips Idowu
Andy Murray
Andrew Strauss
Beth Tweddle

Never sure quite what this is meant to be rewarding. But purely in terms of sporting achievement, I think I'd vote for Cavendish (altho Bradley Wiggins ought to be on the shortlist, too).

Some sort of honourable mention for Giggs, too. Maybe a new category of 'old sportsman of the year".
