Every week, members of the Blackhawkzone.com Message Board nominate and vote on a Tool of the Week. Nominees are those people who have done such stupid things it truely makes you shake your head and wonder to yourself: "What, the hell, were they thinking?". Past winners have burned down their own house - twice, have had sex with animals, led police on naked chases, and have seen religious figures in concrete salt stains.

Rules for nomination is simple: if someone says something so profoundly stupid, acts like a complete idiot to the press, did something totally regretable after a night of drinking, or is just plain a moron - they qualify.

Three time winners are automatically elevated to permanent enshrinement. An exception to this can be done by a majority vote of those Blackhawkzone.com Message Board members. This was recently done in the case of Barry Bonds and Bob Pulford.
