I could see him being a nominee, but not the winner. He may earn such praise, but it's way too early to tell. And since they aren't likely to give it to him twice in a row, they've basically barred him from receiving it when it would mean something.


It is some sort of life time award, you can only receive it once. So yeah, you are correct.
