2017 FOFC Super Bowl Prop Bets Contest
I think that it would be fun to have an FOFC Super Bowl Prop Bet contest. Here's how it works. There are prop bets below. You get a point for each correct answer unless otherwise noted. Whoever has the most points wins. If there is a tie, we go to the tiebreakers.
I don't want to be in charge of collecting or distributing money. However, to make it mildly interesting and worth your time, I will donate $25 to the charity of the winner's choice. (Within reason. It needs to be a charity--i.e 501(c)(3). And if you manage to find something like the non-profit arm of NAMBLA and try and force me to donate to it, then congratulations, you are very funny. I still won't do it. I'm not getting put on an FBI watch list for this. I reserve full discretion to make you pick another charity if you are an ass about it. Just don't be an ass, and all will be well.) I will establish a cut-off of noon Eastern time on Sunday. Feel free to post your ticket in this thread if you don't care about anyone seeing it before they make their picks. If you do care, then PM your answers to me. I will post people's tickets in this thread sometime between noon and kickoff. I will be posting my own ticket in this thread in the next few minutes. If I win, then I get to pick the charity. ______________________________________________________ 1. Spread Bet (2 points for correct answer) ___ Patriots -3 ___ Falcons +3 2.

Well, that was less popular than I thought.
It will be me v. C Moonie for the question of whether I have to pay $25 to a charity of his choice |

My 77 points is 34-33 Pats over Falcons, not that it matters.
Edit: And I'll add my own spice by agreeing to donate $25 to the charity of albion's choice if I do not out-score him. Same stipulations apply as he set forth in the original post. Last edited by Vince, Pt. II : 02-05-2017 at 05:20 PM. |

Here's what I got
albionmoonlight 20 CrescentMoonie 10 Vince Pt. II 14 CrimsonFox 14 QuikSand 14 This gives everyone a point for the Edelman/Jones question which was a push It also does not count the "longest touchdown" question for anyone because I wasn't sure whether the count the INT return. Luckily, it did not matter for final scoring. Please check your numbers to make sure I didn't miscount. Funny that I won because the game did not go at all how I thought it would. Somehow still managed to back into a lot of these. |

Thanks, Vince.
I'll keep it simple. This is my church: Give | Church of the Holy Family If you want to give to the general operating fund, that's great. If you want to get specific, then my favorite is the Rector's or the Associate Rector's discretionary fund. As the name implies, that's a little extra money that allows the clergy to take care of small immediate issues as they arise without having to go through the bureaucracy. Thanks for the kind offer. |
