Em.. Daughtry was actually the fifth place finisher. Behind Hicks, McPhee, Elliot Yamin and Paris Bennett.
@Blaine23: Nope, fourth place – DHMBIB had it right. See here: [en.wikipedia.org]
Quibbling over specific Idol placement (after 1st and 2nd) is like arguing about who won Bud Bowl IV.
It was Bud, BTW. 27-24.
@Bob Loblaw: Brilliant! And please tell me you had to look that up.
@DHMBIB: I just imagined the savant version of myself that wouldn’t have to look that up and shed a single tear.
I think lee is the best. He deserves to win not a stupid greaseball that’s on drugs and a fucking nasty slut that tries to live on welfair and the mommy cards and its pretty sad she won’t even get her teeth or hair taken care of.
