Greenguy & Jim's 2005-2006 Super Bowl Contest!

[Greenguy]

2005/6 SuperBowl Party Contest!

Once again, we will fly the winner into Buffalo, NY for a private Super Bowl party at Greenguy's house on February 5th 2006!

Jim will probably be there (he has dogs) as well as MrMaryLou & probably a few others.

The winner will receive $500 for travel expenses, a ride to & from the airport (if necessary), a bed in our spare room and we'll of course be partying all weekend :)

In order to determine the winner, we've decided to start a "Win & You Go On" Pool - here's how it works:
....and please, don't enter if you can't make the trip :)

1 - Send all picks via the board's Private Message (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/private.php?do=newpm&u=2) system.

2 - Each week, you must pick one team to win their game (no spread)

3 - Once you pick a team, you can not pick them again for the rest of the season (meaning that if you pick Arizona to beat St Louis in week 1, you can never pick Arizona again)

4 - If your team wins, you go onto the next week. If your team looses, you are out of the contest. Ties count as a win.

5 - You must Private Message (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/private.php?do=newpm&u=2) us your pick before Noon EST on the Saturday before the games. If we do not have your pick by Noon, you are out of the contest. If there is a Thursday or Saturday game, your pick must be in before Noon the day before the game & only if you plan on picking from those games. (Meaning that if you plan on picking the Oakland/New England game for Week 1, you must have your pick in by Noon Sept 7th. If you are not picking that game, your pick for Week 1 is due by Noon Sept 10)

6 - Last contestant remaining will win the contest.

7 - In the event there is a tie at the end of the contest (after Week 17), we will randomly draw a winner from those that are in the tie. If there is a tie before Week 17, we will extend the contest until we have one winner or until the end of the season. (meaning if in Week 15 there are 4 people left & all 4 loose, they will go again in Week 16)

8 - Only one entry per registered board member (only Jim, Greenguy & MrMaryLou are officially excluded) & you must have 400 posts before August 17th (http://www.greenguysboard.com/pools/400posts08-17-05.html) in order to enter the contest. Registration ends at Noon EDT on Sept 7 2005.

The official page is located here:

If your name is on the list & you'd like to enter the contest, please send me a Private Message via this link (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/private.php?do=newpm&u=2).

Is Janet Jackson in this year's super bowl? |boobies|

I'm thinking the Red Wings will take out the Yankees in the third round.

[bootybanditinc]

Love to see the bills in the superbowl but with losman as the field general it will be a while. Stellar D can only go so far in the NFL

[Thumbler]

Love to see the bills in the superbowl
Why? - So you can see them lose yet again? |pink

[ynuahayt]

Nice contest - but I'm clueless when it comes to american footbal so I'll pass on this one :)

[Preacher]

With my superior knowledge of football I'm a shoe in...oh shit I'd better get posting.


I kid...I kid! |jester|

[selena]

It will take me 2-3 more years of posting to be able to play. :D

Are you going to have another MNF giveaway like you did last year, Mr. Greenguy?

[Greenguy]

Nah - I'm gonna pass on the MNF thing :(

[selena]

Nah - I'm gonna pass on the MNF thing :(


That's cool. :) I'll either have to post more, or be patient then. ;)

[Greenguy]

Come On! Register now so that at least 10 people are interested in this |thumb

[Fonz]

Nice contest - but I'm clueless when it comes to american footbal so I'll pass on this one :)
You'd be surprised how little you have to know about those northern american sports to win a contest like this :D

I'm in (I hope :) )

[LowryBigwood]

Sounds like fun, I missed out on that last year as I was just under 100 posts when it came around. Go Cowboys!

[selena]

Go Cowboys!

You are my kinda guy. :D

[Torn Rose]

Go Horse....

[Greenguy]

Go Go Gadget Propeller Hat |thumb

[selena]

Greenie, this might not be the best time to say so, but I find your avatar...disturbing. :D

I don't think it is the most flattering one I've seen you use in my time here. ;)

Thinking it might disturb you is part of the reason I changed to it! :D

And if you get your wish about Drew, it's all good, because we have #21, and he's going to run his way right into an awesome career.

[Greenguy]

Thinking it might disturb you is part of the reason I changed to it! :D...DAMN IT! I hate it when my weaknesses are exposed!!

I need to bash someone else? Where's that fucktard with the Steelers logo?

Or Torn & his blind love for anything from that pathetic non-daylight savings time state? :D

[selena]

Hey now!!!!

While I may not be a fan of that team that crept into my state in the middle of the night some years back, I am a staunch defender of our non daylight savings time status.

Matter of fact, I wrote Gov. Daniels a long email telling him just what I thought about the proposed change. One night about 4 a.m., after I was two bottles of wine in, thai is.

Yes, but Indiana is really like North and South America. There is up there, then there is down here. I live down here. :D In a tiny town in the southwest area.

[Greenguy]

SpeedyG - you might want to re-read rule #8 as you're about 372 posts short :(

[JoeBlack]

[SpeedyG]

[Greenguy]

Just to clarify the rules that are posted in the original message, you had to already have 400 posts on August 17th. We do this to avoid the "posting so I can get into the contest" stuff as well as reward those that have been posting all along.

Here's the updated list of who's entered so far:

adamneve
amadman
Chop Smith
CrazySy
dareutwo
docholly
Dr Bizzaro
Fonz
Kinky
Linkster
LowryBigwood
plateman
pornrex
Ramster
Thumbler
Torn
Useless Warrior
Yell

If anyone that had less than 400 posts when the contest was announced OR those that know they can not make it to the party want to get in on the "Shits & Giggles" portion of the contest (where you win nothing but pride) you can send me a Private Message (http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/private.php?do=newpm&u=2) stating that you want in on the Shits & Giggles picks & I'll get your name on there.

[SpeedyG]

[Dr Bizzaro]

Actually I was talking about the actual odds.
1 in 20 to win.

I couldn't comment on how people pick, because last year I was just guessing.

[plateman]

oh I know, bad thing about picking teams is that anyone can beat anyone in the NFL.. plus this contest is something nice to be in.. I just hope I can make it past week 5 or 6...
