[Edward]

I was a bit worried there that we wouldn't have a good turnout. Good to see the activity pick up.

Because of a recent injury, I may be a bit slow in posting results for the next few weeks and may be posting contests a little earlier than usual.

It's rigged!!

 

[Edward]

It's rigged!!

I've been saying that about major sporting events for years.

It did seem that everyone else went with the Presbyterian preacher's kid, to their collective detriment.

 

[Steve Curtis]

the Presbyterian preacher's kid

Did not know that...

 

[earl40]

BYU is going to be downfall. I just can't vote for them as I did not vote for the mormon in the last elestion.

 

[toddpedlar]

As a reminder to everyone, the tiebreaker game is the one indicated - and not a game you get to choose of your own free will (looking at you, Lane! )

And as another reminder, the tiebreaker game needs to have not only the winner, but the game score attached.

 

[Edward]

the Presbyterian preacher's kid

Did not know that...

Son of a . . . preacher man | Jacksonville.com

"Spurrier sat in his office and reminisced about what his father meant to him and how his father molded him. The Rev. John Graham Spurrier, a Presbyterian pastor for most of his life, died three weeks ago at his home in Green Cove Springs. He was 85."

Sorry, I did not understand that part. This is the first time I've done this at the PB.
