Title: Super Bowl Predictions ***Contest*** Post by: gleek on February 02, 2007, 07:04:30 PM I decided to change the format to multiple questions in the same thread. All responses must be received before kickoff. Winner (i.e. whoever gets the most responses correct) will receive a prize of my choosing to be named later. Ties will be broken by writing a Haiku about football. Members of this forum will decide the tiebreaker by poll. Thank you.
I guess I need to clarify team vs. player. 1. What company/product will be represented in the first commercial following the kickoff? 2. Who wins the coin toss? 3. Will it be heads or tails? 4. What's the first penalty to be called? 5. Which TEAM commits the first turnover? 6. Which TEAM scores the first TD? 7. Which PLAYER scores the first points? 8. Which team will have greater time of possession? 9. The over/under for Grossman's INTs is set at 2. Over/under/equal? 10. The over/under for Devin Hester's fumbles (not necessarily lost fumbles) is set at 2. Over/under/equal? Title: Re: Super Bowl Predictions #1 Post by: spacey on February 02, 2007, 07:06:00 PM 1.

Who scores the first TD? Indy 7. Who scores the first points? Vinatieri 8. Which team will have greater time of possession? Indy 9. The over/under for Grossman's INTs is set at 2. Over or under? Under 10. The over/under for Devin Hester's fumbles (not necessarily lost fumbles) is set at 2. Over or under? Under Title: Re: Super Bowl Predictions #1 Post by: stroh on February 02, 2007, 07:06:45 PM I'm in.

Title: Re: Super Bowl Predictions ***Contest*** Post by: gleek on February 02, 2007, 08:48:57 PM I decided to make #7 the player who scores first since that's the way Seamus responded. I also changed #9 and #10. The original questions were stupid since the numbers would be too low for an over/under--even for Grossman. Now there's an option for "equal".
Please change your responses accordingly. Title: Re: Super Bowl Predictions ***Contest*** Post by: Clive on February 02, 2007, 09:10:22 PM 1.

Which TEAM scores the first TD? Indianapolis. 7. Who PLAYER scores the first points? Dallas Clark. 8. Which team will have greater time of possession? Indianapolis. 9. The over/under for Grossman's INTs is set at 2. Over or under? Push (I think he'll throw two). 10. The over/under for Devin Hester's fumbles (not necessarily lost fumbles) is set at 2. Over or under? Under. Title: Re: Super Bowl Predictions ***Contest*** Post by: gleek on February 02, 2007, 09:27:47 PM For #1, let's say that a more-specific response like a simple "Bud Light" will trump a response like "Anheuser-Busch", "Bud or Bud Light", or "some kind of beer". However, if nobody else comes closer, a general response will still be deemed correct.
