I'm With Stupid #183

There are times when a hero is called for... this is one such time. The time has come to shed the disrespect shown to this sacred tradition. We therefore re-present, for the first time in months, the FOFC "I'm With Stupid" Contest.

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game’s widely revered and most truly beloved founding fathers.

The object of this contest is to answer the questions posted, and to provide the most common answer among those submitted. For each question, your score will be equal to the number of people who submitted that response. Your score for the contest will be the product of your individual question scores. Yes, that word "product" here in the States means that they will be multiplied together, not added. Highest score wins.

Collaboration of any kind is strictly forbidden. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants. Just don't be an asshat, and this should end well.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this round of the game. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing. My decisions are final and utterly inarguable, no exceptions.

Any references that are unclear to you, due to language or geography, should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an English-speaking American. However...

Your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "What kind of cake do you like best?" and you answer "chocolate cake" along with 4 other equally misguided people, you each regrettably will be awarded 5 points... even though the correct answer is "The Cake Is A Lie."

________________________________________________________________

The Questions....

For this renewal, we will keep things topical, current, and all filled with sweet football-y goodness.

1. Who will be the first non-quarterback player selected in the 2012 NFL draft?

2. How many points will Alabama score in the national championship game?

3. How many points will LSU score in the national championship game?

4. What player will gain the most total yards rushing over the course of the NFL playoffs this year?

5. How many passing yards will the NFL leader in the category have next year?

6. Forecast the total number of NFL Superbowl rings that will eventually be earned by these three players: Cam Newton, Andrew Luck, and Robert Griffin III


Send the answers to me via PM here by 9am Wednesday. Put IWS#183 in the title please. I have never been a fan of dicking around for six days to let the responses swell from 25 to 30, and I won't start the new year (and new generation of IWS) get started on that note. These questions are easy, get them in, and let's do this thing.

#5 should probably be reworded with it being a number in the thousands. But that's the question and that's what we're sticking with

I've been thinking back on my answers and I predict a record low score here from myself, particularly because I over-thought one or two of these.

the goal is to pick the same answer that others on the board will pick, what will actually happen in reality is irrelevant.
