I will do 9th thru 12th place rankings later if the thread keeps going and I don't get lynched for liking Constantine & Carly.

5th place: George is a mile ahead of anyone else. Only good male singer in season 3.
1. George Huff
(gap)
2. Brooke White - probably should be ranked lower, but she had a nervous breakdown after the judges dared to start criticizing her so I'm mainly considering her earlier performances when she still had all her marbles.
3. Paris Bennett - would drop a few slots if I considered her CD also.
4. Trencye - meh
5. Scott Savol - VFTW's poster boy wasn't actually all that bad.
6. R J Helton - Lately was much better than anything else he sang.
7. Matt Giraud - the judges saved him out of boredom with the season, I think.
(gap)
8. Chris Richardson - one of the worst, most over-pimped Idol finalists of all time. Sanjaya's frequent total trainwrecks kept people from noticing Chris' even more consistent dull, forgettable badness. His non-career after Idol shows yet again what failures the judges are as talent scouts.

6th place: I like all the first 4 a lot, so I can't rank them and listed them in order of season.
Constantine Maroulis
Kellie Pickler
Carly Smithson
Anoop Desai
5. Phil Stacy - improved as he went along.
(gap)
6. Christina Christian- adorable, but a mediocre voice.
7. John Stevenzzzzz - could not sing anything uptempo.
8. Caaaaaaaarmen Rasmutebutton - how the hell did she even get in the top 12?

7th place: positions 2 thru 5 are interchangable and listed in order of season.
1. JENNIFER HUDSON - deserved to win it all (and did later on!)

(ginormous gap)

Ryan Starr - my first serious Idol crush.
Kimberly Cuntwell - total bitch, but her voice is fine.
Anwar Robinson - Idol's first ever out of the closet during the season gay. Sorry Adam.
Ace Young - those who live by the falsetto die by the falsetto (and usually quicker than anybody imagined).
(gap)
6. Kristy Lee Cook - I thought her version of Proud to be an American was one of Idol's all-time most sickening moments.
7. Lil Rounds - the judges were full of shit to ever think she was good.
8. Sanjaya Malakar - Idol definitively jumped the shark with his many trainwreck performances.

8th Place: the 3 best are vastly better than the 4 worst.
1. Michael Johns - could have won if he didn't keep trying to use a falsetto he doesn't have.
2. Nadia Turner - robbed.
3. Bucky Covington - my wife has a crush on him!
(gap)
4. A J Gil - who?
(gap)
5. Haley Scarlato - I feel guilty putting her ahead of 3 other people. But great legs will do that.
6. Rickey Smith - ear-piercingly bad falsetto.
7. Scott McIntyre - sob stories suck. So does his voice.
8. Jon Peter Lewis - Just Please Leave was a perfect nickname.

9th place sneak preview:
8. Megan Corkrey

13th place:
1. Mario Vazquez
2. Jasmine Murray
