TFP Sports Contest
Time for another TFP sports contest! The prize is bragging
rights - the winner will be posted here by Monday evening. The contest is simple - anyone can win. Just make your picks by 7:00 p.m. Eastern time on Friday. Highest correct number of picks wins! Make sure you play the tiebreak! There's not alot of things going on in the sports world at this time of year. I did my best to find different contests. We'll really have some battles once football starts. The links provided should help you if you need them! Good luck. RESULTS: We have a tie. Amazingly enough, even with a tiebreak, both Mondak and Pattymac emerged as winners. Even more amazing, in this third installment of the sports contest, we had the highest number of correct picks ever (both players picked eight contests correctly and guessed the same tiebreak). All hail Mondak! All hail Pattymac! Congrats. Thanks to everyone for playing.

Wha Hoo! I win! I think I came in dead last the first time we did this and I missed the second one. I never win stuff so I am extra happy to knock this one out. Thanks a million for the effort Gov!
BTW, I got the WNBA game right and the Cart race. Amazing. Coin flip for sure. W00t w00t!

I didn't even know I HAD a coin flip idea. I was actually just referring to how I made my picks! I don't mind sharing the win with you at all. Good times.
